Drills to stop getting inside too quick?

[PixlPutterman]

Working on a better shoulder turn and to stop pulling/rolling to the inside.

 

Any tips?

You are playing the ball too far forward in your stance. Notice the difference between your ball position -still 1 and Gary Woodland.

Move  the ball back 1-1.5 inches at setup- off of your lead heel , NOT your lead toe. 

 

At IMPACT the lead leg should be in the process of straightening . Doing so will facilitate “rotation “of pelvis.

Your lead leg is still considerably bent well after impact meaning you are limiting your pelvis “rotation” at impact . Too much lateral motion going into impact, not enough rotation 

.Note the difference in the  lead leg  between your impact position and Gary Woodland’s

Try to straighten your lead leg earlier in the downswing , so that it is also straightening at impact .

You are not pulling the club to the inside though and your swing motion looks fantastic by the way. You took the club away with your body as evidenced by the club still point at your belly button. If you had taken the club away with your hands the butt end of the club would be pointing downrange already but it is not. You are in excellent position at this point and very stacked and balanced. 

 

The ball is not too far forward in your stance as was suggested earlier as I froze your swing at impact and your trail arm is still bent which means that you maintained lag tension through the shot which is excellent and mandatory.  The ball is not too far forward in your stance.  In my opinion you should also never compare yourself to other golfers as your swing motion is unique to you and is your own personal fingerprint.  We are all unique athletes and they only time that we are all subject to the same rules is at impact. 

  

 

You also hit the ball exactly where the plane of your swing suggested that you should have. Prior to watching your swing I came up with where you should be hitting the shot to hit it with leverage and I literally said that you should be hitting this ball at the second right pole on the electrical line and that is exactly where you hit it. I know you don't want to hear this...there is absolutely nothing wrong with your swing motion at all and you should be out there playin golf and continuing to gain experience and reps.

I appreciate the feedback.

 

A few things.....

 

My miss is an over the top slice ( prefer to call it a power fade hahahaha) I get a little cuppy at the top and come over the top and dont recover. 

 

In regards to pulling it inside, I dont do that to begin my swing by if you watch the video from behind I start to yank it inside when the club gets parallel to the ground.

 

I think I need to work on taking the arms out of the back swing a little more?

I have watched and rewatched the video multiple times and you simply don't come over the top of the shot from the down the line view. Your arms are about as out of the swing as they can be on the back swing as you completely took the club away with your body because the club is still pointing at your belly button. Since you are hitting up on the ball this will look like a pull on video just like hitting a shot off the ground will look like a push on video being that you are hitting down on the shot, and given the shot is hit with leverage to denote that your low point was correctly oriented in relation to the ball.  Okay so you may feel cuppy from time to time and so keep note of that and observe your ball flight as if you are truly getting cuppy then your ball flight will change and you can catch it and correct it.  You are doin so much right and you should continue to build off it.
