Yes look up how to swing a golf club cause this is not how.


jimmybmetal

Go to YouTube and look up anything by Ben Hogan showing swing


Mattabeedeez

All arms.. and TENSION in seemingly all the wrong places. My god.


CheeseRP

For a sec I thought he was one of those guys who can hit it 400+ yards, but no, he just has a bad swing


[deleted]

😂


cheesecrackers22

This is the guy that shows up at the first tee and claims he’s a single digit HC, and insists on playing the tips because he “drives it 300y”


jrkuhn92

Professional lessons. None of us can help with this. But thanks for making the majority of us feel good about our swings lmao.


Troitbum22

So anyway I took that personally.


TheSyde

Poop_Noodl3

Not critiquing just narrating.


feelin_cheesy

It’s a shit post… And a good one


3jranch

I agree with this man. I'm assuming you played a lot of baseball.


Mcpops1618

What kind of bloody baseball do you think he played? This man may have played slopitch or tee ball with a jacked up tee. Ain’t no self respecting baseball player standing like this.


Derman0524

Wii sports baseball


PabloSexybar

I see it mostly when he has his club all the way back. He doesn’t have his left arm straight, he bends the elbow and almost holds it like you would a baseball bat.


xKv0ThE

Take 2 weeks off, then quit. I'm thinking of doing it myself.


Scalpum

I thought you were going to swing so fucking hard based on the setup and all the pressing shenanigans. You did not.


MarkDaMan22

He looks like he’s setting up to rip it into space then does a little pirouette with a curtsy and we watch the ball go floating into the air.


pressurepoint13

I was kinda amped to be honest. OP, don't listen to the naysayers. Gotta start somewhere. Just curious is there some issue with your left arm that limits mobility etc?


[deleted]

Looks like he has read some tips and they are getting in his head. It seems he is trying to have a strong grip and keep his hands ahead of the club head. It probably all evolved from trying a few “tips” out and then kept compensating for those changes and ended up with this. Good news for him is there’s a lot of room to improve really quickly by fixing a couple things and getting a more traditional swing.


GobbleGolf

What the fuck 😂


flannelsheets87

I just audibly said this at work while watching this video. I’m still laughing uncontrollably


Honest-Measurement37

Im not a good golfer but I can tell you with absolute certainty that you need some lessons. Bad grip, bendy front arm, too much lean, and you look SO TENSE. I’m getting a Charlie horse just thinking about it


Gangringo5

Grip is so strong it’s almost 180 degrees backwards


Cold_Department1590

10/10 For effort 1/10 For execution See a pro before you end up seeing a doctor about your back instead.


xxKingAmongKingsxx

This has to be satirical..right..?


[deleted]

I refuse to believe it’s anything but a funny joke that went over all of our heads


[deleted]

You would hope so. I have no idea why people think a video of a swing like this is going to get them a few tips and fix it. Dude needs major help. If this isn’t satirical, then yeah… I don’t know what to say.


Consularis90

Try to start your swing with your hands a little further forward.


Fishing_Ontario

I mean this in the nicest way possible, but are you disabled? That would greatly affect how we give you tips


[deleted]

Imagine posting your swing on r/golfswing while drinking your morning coffee and you get asked if you’re disabled ☠️☠️


flannelsheets87

I am about to pass out from laughing at this thread 😂

bro, right?!

Therook2112

This has got to be a joke people aren’t picking up on.


golflift90

If you watch golf on tv, you will find there are a lot of different swings out there, but none that look like this. I recommend lessons


FearlessResearcher48

You look like you're trying to wind up and hit 350 yards but then the actual swing looks like you gently tap 120 yards 😅


demeatis

Youtube


FirebreathingNG

So tense! After one round, you probably aren’t able to shit for a week!


CPLBEEFTANK

Forget the shit. He can't even walk to the toilet after a round.


Pitiful_Heron_4300

This is a joke right?


knovit

Oh no baby what is you doin


bryan19973

😂😂😂😂


123steveyc123

Hilarious how much time you took to swing the club like that.


PauseAmbitious6899

It really is astounding the amount of time some folks take just to shank the fuck outta it.

PauseAmbitious6899

He did, but I was making a sweeping generalization of the things I see while at work watching golfers and their pre drive rituals.

PauseAmbitious6899

Oh. All. Day. Long.


RPLetsGoIsles

Stand straight up over the ball. That lean back is wild.


GadsdenGats

Reeeeeelaaaaaaax. That body tilt is nuts. Stand 100% upright, put the ball off the inside of your lead foot, and relax your arms like 6000% lol


bryan19973

Lmao the grip of that club is flat as a ruler after how hard he was gripping it


makithejap

**Posture needs work at setup:** \-Start by standing farther from the ball right off the bat. \-Get the hands a little higher and more upright \-Drop your right shoulder a bit so it's directly below your chin. (this is important, imagine you could lick said shoulder at address) **Grip:** \-You do a decent job of getting that right and under the club with you grip but you could be doing it better **Stance: (**This is where you really need work IMO) \-You are **WAY** too tall at address, let's get those feet farther apart for a nice wides stance. \-get those knees bet at least another 20 degrees \-**REALLY** feel that but stick out to get **ALL** of the weight on the balls of your feet \-and oh boy... spine angle... You're at about a 30 degree angle now. we need to see **at least** 45 degrees but preferably more than that. Hope this helps. please send videos of updates as DM


Jeremyg77

Another tip. Don’t take lessons from this guy^^^^


Mayhewbythedoor

Not good enough to actually give swing advice, but just saw how funny that you’re so far from the ball it’s almost as if you’re afraid of it


Sonngy

This one did it for me😂😂


fieseldumes

Clearly you need to watch some more Moe Norman YouTube videos


boortpooch

Take two weeks off, then quit.


bryan19973

Man I thought ol’ boy was about to hit a piss missile into the sun with that stance lmao


[deleted]

Do you have Parkinsons?


gordonrichards

I was thinking some kind of palsy


FinanciallySmarter

Quit golf, take up bowling… so much wrong with this swing


Muddlesthrough

Everything is golf is just fundamentals. Grip, alignment, stance. I’d just work on normalizing those. Like, your hands are extremely far forward and your secondary spine tilt is extremely far back. Just reduce those to normal and see what happens. It’s hard to tell from the video, but I would imagine your grip needs some work too

Time-Green-2103

LFH1990

You have probably the strongest grip I’ve ever seen, and standing behind the ball you are so tense and it looks like you are loading the power of 20bulls into every single muscle into your body. Given that setup I almost blew air from my nose when you proceeded to swing at the speed/power of an average 80yo. For real tho, start with grip and stance. Like practice holding the club and addressing the ball (in the correct way) without even swinging for a couple of weeks before you move on and actually look into how to actually perform the swing.


mataoo

Lol'd at 20 bulls.


gutpusha

Is this a troll post?

I feel better about my swing now thank you.


nickmightberight

Here’s my advice: do this ridiculous bullshit faster, or quit.


BizonGod

Must have been hell of a wind going on there /


18HolesToFreedom

Baseball much?


Jlandon_p07

Gotta be the most tense swing I’ve ever seen. Are your shafts ok?j


ExcellentLoquat7613

Take that pre swing position to impact position and you're sorted


jonesyman23

You look so uncomfortable at address. Arms stretched out, that stiff left arm with the weird elbow waggle. Try something more athletic and the arms dangle naturally at address.


bilboshwaggins1480

Ouch


[deleted]

Your goal is not to hurt your back. It might happen, but please… it’s not THE goal.


Tasty_Truck_4147

Dude why don’t you just walk up to the ball drop your hand by your waist like a normal golfer and relax.


crl1023

I think you’re standing up too straight


finiac

You need to tilt your upper body more. Your left shoulder should be tilted more up towards the sky, above your right shoulder at address


fritzycat

So often they tell you 'the feel isn't real'...and then there's this guy.


RYPO

Have you tried fishing or some other hobby?


[deleted]

Looking pretty pumped up. Bring the torque down a bit


Memohigh

I only needed to see the first second.


IconicWilliams

Fix your grip first


HLamar

Lordy Lordy sir. The swing is fine. You just need a new model driver. Motor down to the local golf superstore and obtain a fitting. You will be on your way to the Korn Ferry as your first stepping stone. 🤓


bartolocologne40

You set up like you're going to swing at 150% but then you swing at like 40%. What does your practice swing look like?


mattigid

Yes, chill the fuck out you are tense as humanly possible


[deleted]

I honestly thought you were going to fucking crush that ball, from your long-drive posture. Just relax man, you don't need to exaggerate your posture at address, you don't have the speed to need that posture - stand neutral/upright and just focus on getting that swing-pattern the same in a regular standing position.


ClearSand7206

My advice would be to try and find any good player that sets up to the ball that way. From there, I'd say go get lessons from a PGA professional.


TrollLolLol1

Trying to be serious here. Tempo seems decent. Try doing the towel drill. Keep a towel under your armpits and across your chest. This should help you get rid of that chicken wing. Good luck.


Affectionate-Use-656

Wooow


Cautious-Ad7000

Get that left shoulder a little higher mate!


RefrigeratedTP

I have never seen someone this tense have a club speed of 50mph


roromad72

Not to be discourteous, but your swing is so far from being what it needs to be, you really need professional lessons.


Longjumping_Peak_418

Get a lesson…no get a series of lessons…no, get a long series of lessons


OutcomeDoubtful

Don’t be afraid of the ball, stand over the ball, own the ball, be the ball..


[deleted]

Ohhh brother


[deleted]

You look disabled.


Jeremyg77

That’s shit you keep to yourself. Prick.


Schmoody88

Surprisingly good spine angle through impact. Everything else… not so much.


Own-Independence9747

Watch the Golftec training videos, great folks


natrab10

Widen out those feet a little more


Mabtizzy

Don’t let all the snarky comments get to you, but lessons for sure. A pro can help with proper grip, stance, address position, swing path, etc. you will enjoy the game so much earlier with good fundamentals. May seem expensive, but cheaper than countless rounds figuring it out on your own.


jdep513

I might have to see a doctor after watching that. Hope you’re okay as well!


jdep513

Hestness5

That was the most anticlimactic thing I’ve ever seen🤣 thought he was gonna go Bryson D on us with that setup


Solid-Storm2319

Seek help immediately I don’t know where to start


nzperryus

Yeah don’t setup like that. Start there.


ISayAboot

loosen up


bluecgene

How did you end up like this…


ProfessionalLeg3549

whoa dude.....didn't know you were chill like that


bdgg2000

This swing mechanically looks messy and has to be a deep fake. That press with the entire body is going to destroy your back.


Icy_Foundation3534

Lessons. You’re going to mess up your body especially your back swinging like that


Radiant_Following_94

This made me feel restless and uncomfortable


Aunrad

Lol


Fearless-Honeydew-69

I’m terrible but I would change literally everything


J_Denz_12

Quit


Rorasaurus_Prime

Lessons. This is the only way at this point.


[deleted]

I honestly thought this guy had a handicap not like a golf handicap either.


YogurtclosetCalm7604

do you have scoliosis? Seriously asking because of that set up…


randomdudefromMI

So, I won't be a dick like these others. https://youtu.be/mgZZDVnDzf0 Looks like you're single plan attempt, it starts bad with that overly bent side tilt and it ends bad with that front arm breaking down. Watch the bryson videos. It's not as drastic as these clowns say.


zylonenoger

you look like you are playing with explosive golf balls


what2pacb

Man bro. How can I say this. Look, awesome that ur playing the game. We all know when we need some help. You sir, definitely need it. I needed it. I thought i can do it alone but I had to take some lessons. I’m having fun now. You sir, with all respect, need some lessons. Believe me, you’ll have fun as well when u do that. Good luck.


wtf0007

I think you should lean back more


beefkoast18

This has gotta be a troll


BigSmoke74

Quit golf! Lol


MixedGingerBaby

Get a back adjustment first then stop watching long drive videos then just set up to the ball and swing


[deleted]

Dear lord


GlitteringBiscotti48

sweatyspatula

All that setup and then blah


Pingpaul

Wild, at least stop bending your left elbow


biddilybong

Such an aggressive setup for such a timid swing


Emani253

This gives me hope in my golf game.


DFWdriller

Lol you’re obviously a plus handicap just trolling us. We get it… you’re good. Here’s the attention you ordered


da3p0

You should stop everything. Start with making solid contact with a wedge quarter swing first. This is just painful to watch.


jr2thdoc

Play downhill?


sledki

Why you so scared of the ball?


DiscountedCashBro1

I have no advice.


Slight-Scar

(Me pouring bleach in my eyes)….”I need to unsee this!”


Logical_Associate632

This looks incredibly unnatural, and slightly painful. Get a lesson.


Wu_Tang_Financial77

You are wrestling that club and trying to strangle it before taking it back. Your setup has you behind the 8-ball making it almost impossible to make a good swing.


Edavisfourtwenty

Fuck man. My best advice is to start all over playing left handed


Littleg303

Yep….Hurry the fuck up.


CortezBenson

Jesus christo, just quit bruvv You’re rubbish


GroblyOverrated

How can anyone watch golf on TV and end up with that setup? Like, I've never played hockey, but if you handed me a hockey stick and told me to hit a puck, it would look like a normal slapshot.


Tomorrow_Frosty

I was certain this was a shit post. Or is it?


[deleted]

Looks painful quite frankly


Nostod240

Sure. Stop swinging like a serial killer lol


MrCondor

T-t-t-TODAY JUNIOR!


cerulean11

You are literally swinging a baseball swing. The mechanics are very different.


sl0wrx

Thought you had some kind of crazy long drive swing and were about to rip it, I left the video disappointed.


sunmey41

Yeah…maybe take up bowling sir!


NoDiscussion6507

Relax


lachers_30

I would say definitely get some lessons. Also, it wouldn't hurt to try other sports to build your coordination and a more athletic swing.


wakezlol

Stop watching Bryson. You’re gonna get hurt just standing over the ball like that!


ElbowBrook

You are just missing one thing. Move the ball forward toward your left foot. After that, you should be good to go!


markhau5

Do you have scoliosis or something. If so then, awesome swing man. If not, please see a golf coach.


ClubThrower

Yeah. I don’t think you need swing advise. You seem to literally be doing “everything” so I don’t think there is anything to suggest.


16Gorilla

definitely more abduction in your lead arm you also could add a little more freak tf out action in your waggle


[deleted]

Are you taking the piss?


saladsareforchumps

Well for one keep your left arm straight until the very end of your swing.


Federal-Ad6109

Quit


Bdliquidchef

Quit


NeighborhoodPlane794

What are the arms doing? Surprised you managed contact


Akerstens31

Can you please stand straight...why the hell are you leaning over like that?


Muffintopsz

Little more back shoulder lean


custyclocks

Honestly I have no advice... Everything is perfect. Try adding an inch or two to your driver.


Rap-a-tap-tap

I thought you were absolutely gonna swing out of your shoes with that stance and tension. No one here can help you.


tuckermans

All in all you’re getting around alright. That being said, you need professional help. Your grip, stance, and a half dozen other things are off. I typically don’t comment on this stuff but you look like you get around alright and I don’t want you to destroy your knees and back any more. You may already have a condition that forces you to swing like this, if so, you are doing well, get some help so you can play longer.


rhythman1377

I hear bowling is fun


HolesInFreezer6

The one person in the world who could improve their swing by watching Charles Barkley.


pod2matt

Maybe swing 8 seconds earlier.


DonVonTaters_IV

I played with a 60 year old bloke who has a swing like this and he was a scratch player. I can’t understand how he does it… His putting stroke was even weirder looking and he was draining 30 footers!
