I need some great swing thought.My legs and hips get so active on the downswing that I start to shank the ball.All help is truly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Work on your tempo. Vijay has been know to use a number, like 21. 20 on the backswing and 1 on the downswing. Become consistent with all of your clubs. Each swing should be 21. Make sense? Truly, your hips and legs shouldnt be doing a whole lot in your swing. Mainly you should be focusing on a good turn with your upper body and keeping your head fairly level.
As far as the shank, place a headcover, while on the driving range, parallel to your target on the opposite side of the ball (2 or 3 inches) to create a more inside-out swing.

1.) Anyone use the 12 inch rule? I read about it in Golf Magazine and it said that the ideal distance between elbows should be 12 inches, when you line up to hit the ball.
2.) I also read in golf magazine that people who can’t bend there arms at least 6 inches behind there head when standing upright shouldn’t be making a complete golf swing, as it is incorrect. How do you increase the flexibility of the shoulders and arms? Any good drills?
hope this helps

On my backswing, I roll my hands and arms - opening clubface
and lose my 1 piece connection. Can someone suggest some drills or
a move to fix this swing fault?
There are a couple of drills that can help you get that feeling of proper wrist action in the backswing.
The first one is more of a thought while you are practicing. Think of it this way. The first third of the backswing everything moves together. Don’t move your hands or wrists at all. Your hips, shoulders, arms, and club should move together in the "one piece takeaway." After you hit that 1/3 back spot shoulder turn brings you all the way back to the top. There is a good drill to help you feel that position.
1. Take your normal setup.
2. cock your wrists straight up, vertically. This is going to bring the butt of the shaft pointing straight down and the head of the club over your hands.
3. Raise your arms in one piece straight up until they are horizontal, maintaining your wrist angle, stance, and posture.
4. Now just swing your hands to your right until your arms are pointing out of your side. You are now in a proper position for the top of the backswing.
You can even hit balls like this. Cock wrists up, move arms up, move arms over, swing down and hit the ball. All it is doing is giving you a good feeling of where everything is at the top of the backswing. Next start hitting balls with your normal backswing, and work on feeling that same position at the top. If you hit that position at the top, then your arms haven’t rolled the face open.
Hope this helps.

I really struggle firing through way to early. Sometimes I hit the ground before the ball and lose like 100 yards on tee shots.
Its very hard for me to slow down my body i have tried this and lose distance. I feel I do fire through to hard with my body but i like to what is a good drill to master weight transfer into my front foot. Or whats a good drill I can use to time my downswing for optimal power and solid contact? My theory is its in the hands becuase they are the only thing touching the club do i need to speed up my hands help please?
Think about it –
Your theory on the hands is exactly opposite of what you should be doing.
Good swings are controlled by the large muscles in your body, your fingers, hands, and arms are all integral, but you should not try to manipulate them during the swing, doing so will lead to inconsistent results (probably similar to what you’ve been experiencing)
What you should concentrate on is a solid one piece takeaway….try to keep the triangle formed by the grip of the club and your shoulders intact for as long as possible, at least until the club is parallel with the ground (horizontally). Do this a few times and check to make sure the toe of the club is pointing to the sky, if it is, then you’re doing it correctly.
From that position simply turn your left shoulder until it points at the ball, then begin your downswing by ‘sitting’ down into the shot with your lower body. The legs should initiate the swing.
If you get Harvey Penick’s Little Red Book, he describes this as the “magic move”, as you begin the downswing your weight shifts to your left heel and your right elbow comes back into your body. As you hit the ball and enter your follow through your weight will have totally shifted and you’ll have 85 to 90% of your weight on your left foot as you complete the swing.
It takes practice and determination to perfect this move, I would encourage you to get The Little Red book…..great easy to understand info in there.
Good Luck!
