  • Over The Top!

    I would class myself as a decent golfer, playing off a handicap of 2.9 but recently have found myself Coming 'over the top' with my divots pointing left of my target. I just wondered if someone had a quick fix, tip or a drill i could try? so i can eliminate them. Thanks Chris

    check out these two links for some help:

    http://members.shaw.ca/gord962/drills/top_position.htm

    They are geared more towards beginners, but if you are a 2.9 you willl know what to pull out as useful information.

      Like the first lesson I've always advocated a friend gripping the club head at the top of the backswing whilst the player turns his body to, and left of, the target.

      Also, swinging a weighted club or a weighted training aid helps to get your lower half working correctly - it takes effoert to swing a weighted club and the only way you can do it and retain energy is to turn the body and let the club follow.

        I don't take much divot, but after I have swang the club you can see a mark on the ground which starts infront of where the ball was lying and it is curved to the inside. I hit the ball with a very slight draw, almost stright.
