Backswing problem!!!

[burnie24]

Im having a problem where by i have a practice swing and i will swing it back lovely and on plane but as soon as i get over the ball and go to swing i swing it flat and it feels rushed and out of sync,its as if i feel like im rushing to hit the ball rather than swing through it like in the practice swing.What can i do different to put my practice swing onto my shot? any ideas or drills???

Re: Backswing problem!!!

Try half swings with the feet together to get the proper feel...

You are not going to hit a ball with your practice swing so you don't tense up. The hit impulse doesn't take over and cause you to try and speed up the swing and tense up the grip and forearms just before impact. It is a very hard thing to combat. Get set up and try a couple of times to hit that ball with your eyes closed. Do it until you make decent contact with the ball. Get a feeling of not rushing the clubhead through the ball. There might be some similar drills to get the feeling of smooth tempo and swing.
