Looks like I need to work on some setup pieces. I tend to have low hands at setup and always working on getting them higher and when focusing on it feel like they are on this line. When taken back to setup the line roughly goes through the right elbow (7iron pictured). The reason for impact shaft line is the shaft rises from setup and the dynamic movements of the swing. You can see in the above photo how I take the swing to impact then draw a line up form the hosel and out the back of the shaft. I use it as a good enough line because my preference is to film at chest high just in front of the toe line. If you are looking for exact you will need to line up your camera in the correct spot where the camera is hand height and perpendicular to the target line. This line is not the fix all line but is a good reference point. Let’s talk about the Elbow Plane Line (Click for YouTube Video). Use these videos and drills to help get your swing shape where you want it and get that driver maximized. With solid strikes it will produce a high launching low spinning ball. Great way to maximize your driver for the most distance. I hit some balls with this setup and it got the path right 6-8* and attack up 3-5*. See the below images showing this movement. This will set up a path that the club can come from inside low and go above the ball. I placed an alignment rod on the target line at an angle that put it a grip above the ball and rolled up a towel and placed that a foot in front off the ball. Here is another drill to keep the swing coming from the inside and now get the attack angle under control. As a golfer it is hard to have a swing that is going out to in to and an upward attack angle so as we get the swing more from under to over there is a better chance. Now let’s chat about swing direction and attack angle. Below I am showing a swing direction that could go under and over. With this you can get feedback where the club is coming from and going to. The goal is to give you the ability to get the club to travel from under the one behind and over the one in front, over the one behind and under in front, or under and under. In the above video I placed an alignment on the ball line a driver distance behind and in front matching the shaft plane.
