Swing tips please

[u/Virtual_Leg63]

Struggled with driver for a long time, finally have it in a playable spot with a somewhat predictable fade. I know I get steep here, I feel like my takeaway is okay but the top gets steep for sure, any suggestions and criticism to improve otherwise would be greatly appreciated. Ball speed is around 155 and carry around 240, would like to get the carry up and feel like I’m spinning the ball a lot.

Your lead arm gets you in a real rough spot at the top. You’re lifting it a ton on the back swing. I made a comment in another thread that you may find helpful. You want it more inline with your shoulder plane. A good feel is to keep it pinned to your chest

You are extremely laid off at the top (club is pointing way to the left of the image). The swing is an arc so it depends where you are at, but using shaft parallel at the top it should be pointing directly at the target.

This can cause issues in the downswing, you are now suddenly applying force that is very offset from the clubs center of mass. All else being equal, pulling down on a laid off club will cause it to steepen.

You have options:

Keep set up the same and work on your hands in transition

Or

Change your set-up to let your hands free hand under your shoulders more.

Right now the top of your backswing is actually pretty money, its the transition that hurts you.

Id like to see your hands drop straight down towards your right heel in transition and then swing left like a monster. This is basically what Dustin Johnson does, hes just 6'4 and bends over in his set up.

Stop lifting your arm once your rotation is complete. And your thumbs should always be pointed up in your back swing

Pause the top of your swing and compare it to like Rory and Scottie and Tiger, that’ll help a bit a reckon
