Just seen driver swing
Looks much better - less overswing, GREAT BALANCE, sounds good too.

Despite EdZ and Delaware Golf saying stance width OK it looks like that left foot needs to be moved 3 inches to your left.

As you are at the moment ( driver swing ) your head position favours the left half of your stance width. This may be associated with your shoulders being slightly open. Ideally ( tripod style ) the head should be central ( between feet ) or if you look at some of the old Hogan / Nelson photos the left ear is in between feet. If anything your right cheek/ear is in between feet.

Your ball position is at low point for driver ( good) but the outside of your left foot is level with the outside of your left shoulder. I think, and ( more importantly) Hogan wrote, that the inside of your left foot should be level with the outside left shoulder line. This would centralise your head position.

Sorry to keep posting - i like little puzzles. Do as the big guys say not what I say ( they do it for a living - i do it for fun)!!

Posting Video clips
Bagger,
This Bergsey is the poster boy for asking for help. He posts sufficient video to actual have people make a very educated response in regards to improving his golf movement. Free golf lessons!

I don't know if you have it but I would think that it would be a big plus to have step by step details regarding posting video- and have that not buried in a post but a heading or clearly visible for anyone wanting to post a video. It ideally should start from - here's the video or type of formats and camera's that will work and then a step by step technique for how they get that posted to the website from there- at least for us computer challenged individuals.

Would be nice to have the ability to "draw on it" or line it up also- and directions for that ability to analyze it by creating reference marks that could be placed over the video frames and also compared to other professional golfers.

Hi Mike O...

Bagger is out of the country this week and will have limited Internet access, so I am responding for him.

As usual, your idea is a good one, and we will put our heads together and see what we can come with.

Thanks!

A Quick Look At Bergsey

I'm off for a full day of teaching, Jason, but I did take a 'quick look'. You have a very nice motion, one that appears much better than your handicap would indicate.

Your Shouder Turn Takeaway is requiring a 'Loop' from Under Plane to On Plane at the Top. And you execute this Loop well.
Also, you seem to get through Start Down without any major damage. From there, though, you appear to Throw the Club past a Bending Left Wrist.

You must learn to keep your Left Wrist Flat through Impact and properly Hinge, then Swivel. There are countless ways to attack the problem. A sure one is found in the Basic Motion Curriculum of 12-5-1/3, especially when assisted and supported by a competent Instructor.
