Lesson 156 – Over The Top

The classic golf instruction subject, when the golfer’s swing path is Over The Top. It makes crazy golf instructors like me compare a teeter totter with shoulder tilt in the downswing. Wild.
But one of the easiest flaws to diagnose when watching a new swing submission is WHEN does the body begin to turn in the downswing.
Turn too early? Over The Top. Turn too late? Get stuck, bail out.
Creating the proper sequence of lateral shift into rotation is key to a consistent downswing. Because once the path gets too far gone over the top, you are stuck trying to do a series of compensations to make up for it. Good luck with that..
