Improve Your Golf Swing using a Video Camera
visit http://www.AGameGolfInstruction.com for hundreds of golf instruction videos.
In this golf instruction video you’ll see one of the easiest ways to check your swing on your own and apply changes so that you can swing like your favorite pga pro. Set a camera up down your target line and hit several golf balls. Then review your golf swing on a television and compare your posture, swing plane, stance and tempo to other golf pros that you like. Use other videos or golf publications like golf digest to compare what you look like to what you should look like. Make adjustments and then hit more golf balls into the net. Once you feel like you look the way you should, then hit 100’s of golf balls into the net to groove your golf swing and build muscle memory so that you don’t have to think about what you are doing when you get to the golf course and you will be able to score better. You can tell a lot about how well you’re striking the golf ball by how the golf club feels in your hands at the time of impact and how the ball flies off the clubface. You can feel a solid hit or a not so solid miss-hit in your hands. A net is a very inexpensive way to learn to play golf well.

You’re right. I did phrase my 3 points above the same as the stack and tilt even though I don’t endorse the stack and tilt method. I do agree with their 3 points and my point is that there are many ways or methods to achieve those 3 points. Find a golf instructor whose points make sense and who you can relate with and apply their methods.

You stole those 3 things off the stack and tilt dvds. Oh and by the way, stack and tilt is

Can you take any criticism? It seems as though your posture and swing could use a little help. These tips are only going to help you; yes there are different techniques to play golf but they are only trying to help YOUR technique improve and to help YOUR overall game. And yes I agree that your knees are a little too active and if you calm those down just a little bit and get a smoother more balanced swing, then your hits will improve drastically.
To play golf, there …
To play golf, there are only 3 things you need to worry about.
1 – You need to be able to hit the ground consistently in the same place with the club head.
2- Be able to hit it far enough to score well.
3- Be able to control where the golf ball goes.
If you can do all three of those, then the technique to make it happen is not so important. There are basics that you will implement however it will be different from person to person; look at the differences in PGA pros Jim Furyk & JB Holmes
The great thing …
The great thing about golf is there are different techniques for different physical abilities. In this video I have a back injury inhibiting flexibility and coil on my back swing, so some of the upper torso movement transfers into my knees where my right leg locks out. This is what happens in the “Stack and Tilt method”.
Man you got …
Man you got overactive knees…especially your right one in your backswing..
I would have to …
I would have to agree. Your Posture does need some work. Also, your knee flex. However, you don’t look very comfortable over the ball. Doing a little waggle is fine, but your moving your knees back and fourth. Which is sometimes causing you to stand up a little more straight up at times, which would be why you might lose your balance. I would suggest that you keep a proper knee flex do a little waggle and then hit your shot.
so do you suggest …
so do you suggest that because I don’t stand there with long enough for someone to take pictures that it isn’t balanced? Even pros walk out of a finished golf swing at times rather than waiting in a photo finish.
He clearly loses …
He clearly loses his balance at the end of his swing. If his impact was absolutely perfect, this doesn’t matter. Unfortunately, balance and posture in the followthrough usually tells the story of the swing.
nice swing hey iv …
nice swing hey iv been having trouble hitting irons and well all of my clubs solid i often hit thin or too fat or slice my driver i can hit at least 300 yds but often slice can you take a look at my swing and give me suggestions to help my flaws that iv mentioned thanks in advance

correct, that is why you practice at home and follow it up at the driving range or with a computer that can give you feedback at home.

nice swing. Can you tell me what kind of golf net you’re using? it looks very nice and compact. can you tell me the name and the price? thanks

go to agamegolfinstruction . com and click on “training and practice aids” and then click on “golf practice nets” and you’ll have many to select from. This one was about $40.

where did you get that net and how much did is cost you?
great idea is NOT …
great idea is NOT to copy this swing. Unless you need to early turn, transition extremely steep, tilt under, and lose balance in the finish….then this would be a great model!
put the ball more …
put the ball more in the middle of you stance. and concentrate on hitting ball first, then divot
sometimes when i …
sometimes when i hit the ball i hit the club on the ground before hitting the ball wich results in a shorter shot. do you have any tips?
You make a good …
You make a good distinction. There are 4 different learning styles; auditory, visual, digital and kinesthetic. I am very visual and have always found it easy to watch someone do something and then apply it to myself. People with other learning styles which “read this in Golf Digest and can’t get it to work” may have to find an alternative method to learn which could be visiting a pro. You’re only seeing the students that aren’t able to visualize as I do while the successful ones are out golfing
I learned to play …
I learned to play when I was 2. My swing has evolved a few times with different professional instruction. I understand the dynamics well enough that when I hit a ball and achieve a certain result that I can make corrections correctly. I maintain a 7 handicap from year to year accepting that the only way I can improve much more is to spend alot more time at the course practicing which time I don’t have. To maintain flexibility, tempo and maintain the feel of a solid strike I use a net at home.
I’ve been golfing …
I’ve been golfing for 38 years now. I’ve had many professional golf lessons included from pros that “overthink” and way over complicate matters. Pros don’t fix problems permanently any more than publications do. People who want to play 0-8 handicap golf will almost certainly have to see a pro “and” practice for hours at the range and putting green and play several rounds per week. For people that play occasionally as a social event non competitively, just a simple net can improve your game.
My right knee does …
My right knee does stay flexed. It never does “lock”. My knee would move back another 3 inches or so to be locked. I agree with the head movement because my reverse C finish is hard on my back as I get older and less flexible.
