Golf Swing Analysis

How to Change Your Golf Swing Plane angle

I recently had with one of my readers asked me for a second opinion on a video swing analysis, who had just received what was up an interesting question about setting the plane of oscillation, which I thought I'd share with you.

He voted for the experience with the objective of increasing its driving distance of 10-15%. E 'was also shot pushed to the right.

The video analysis showed that his plane swing back > Swing is very flat. Being a big-chested man with a little 'flexibility in the upper body has a deficit, has developed a tendency to "wrap" the golf club around his body on the backswing. The net result, which is a shallow recession, which took the ball from inside-out swing club head cutting path that is often pushed to the blow on the right.

What to do to help push the problem away, and its potential to improve is to adapt its> Piano Swing to a more upright position.

It would be the path the club head swing to move more down the target line gives you more room for error at impact and create more potential energy by floating in a higher position of driving the above will lead to greater speed at impact.

His instructor successfully taken this observation. But the way in which the solution to the problem presented was somewhat 'misleading.

Hisadvice was to "raise their hands" More on backswing, which in essence is the final result, which was looking for what would come with a more vertical swing.

The reason I focus on what is often read and heard of an increase of hands "as a means of creating a more vertical swing. And 'a technique used by some teachers to encourage greater pressure on the back swing rotation increase the torque and speed of swing back swing.

So I sayThis is a bit 'misleading is that the student is presented with a contract that the other problems with their band could create. As it turns out that was the case with our readers.

His instructor is to encourage him with his hands in the air above his head and shoulders, which called on the rotation of the strain over and lifted his plane swing, and it was her instructor was looking for, but because of its rigidity it was very tense muscles in the left and created hisalso a serious fracture of his left elbow …

Swing plane is not covered by your hand movements – is governed by the movement of the shoulder. Higher ranking hand is the result "of a more just swing, not how to get there.

For your regular swing plane is necessary to focus on the beginning of the swing – not the end of a time trying to achieve a result that many golfers have no hope of reach because of their lack offlexibility.

Swing plane is struck by the way you rotate your left shoulder – the more you rotate your shoulders, "horizontal" about the spine from the floor flat swing, as was the case with the reader.

Increase your swing plane angle and turn their backs more "vertical", running along the left shoulder instead of the beginning of the swing.

Introduction of the journey back swing with a vertical movement of the shoulder rather than lifthands ", helps you in your relaxed left arm to keep and maintain a stable left elbow, without a break – incidentally, also results in less risk for an early release from the side of the corridor.

We all know that the increase in torque backswing improves cornering speeds.

Turning his back more to achieve this goal. But it will not generate torque shoulders, not breaking his left elbow when his hands in a higher position is – you will end up losingcouple.

The reason why it is necessary to break the elbow in the first place because the shoulder does not rotate further. If they limit their flexibility, which is the maximum torque you will realize the tribe reached.

Left elbow that broke the arm muscles are able to match the tension that is created in the area of the hull. When the break is that you release the torque contribution of the arm muscles, which are essentially "choose" from the total torque build until the new year.

The net effect is that you lose the couple backswing after the break is.

Break the left elbow also creates a second movable part in the gang, who were referred to the right position at impact that the timing of oscillation more difficult to coordinate.

Very attentive to what you hear and read about a position of "high hand". Yes, this is the place for power and consistency in the way we look at the professional> The way, but you get the chance to achieve it.

If you lack flexibility, try as we will see more problems with your swing if you solve them.

Recommendations:

1. Do not ever groped swing past the "natural" swing set, and was instructor of this was our consultant player. Always floating in your natural range of flexibility.
2. A transition to an oscillation angle of the upper floor is good for both swingconsistency and speed of swing – you're there with more vertical rotation of the shoulder, which consists of a sequence of left shoulder down to the start of the swing is not – trying to raise his hands above his head.
3. Interruptions not the left elbow. Even if the hands can not go more than shoulder height, maintaining a solid left backswing torque to maintain the timing of swing easy.
4. With the prospect of more shoulder turn to reach, you havechoice but to improve flexibility in your back muscles. – Go through the simple low back stretching routine every day for 2-3 weeks and is expected to turn the corner as much as 10 º increase.

Good luck!
