Is Your Golf Swing Too Flat - (Video) Lesson by PGA Pros Pete Styles and Matt Fryer

The pitch of the golf swing can often be described as steep, on plane, or flat. For some golfers the feeling of swinging the golf club too flat can cause them to worry. As they try to understand whether they need to steepen the angle of the golf swing, Matt and Pete will explain the terminology of a flat swing, and also help you to understand how practising in front of a mirror or video camera should give you a concept of the steepness of your golf swing, and ultimately help you to decide if your golf swing is too flat.

The certain parts of your golf swing that are quite easy to check because the parts in the swing that are much harder to check. Some of the things in your address position you might find relatively comfortable to be able to look at you can see your hands you can see your feet but then as you start to move the club is there is in the back swing that almost disappeared behind us. So one of the things we've got to be able to do is have a good view a good visualization and get some feedback on parts of our back swing.

Now Matt is going to explain particularly about how we can utilize mirrors or patio doors or something that's reflective to be able to see parts of the back swing and particularly to look at whether those parts of the back swing are flat or on plane and if your swing is too flat. Matt has got some drills to help us understand about those yes like you say sometimes we don't have an understanding of where the golf club the shaft in the head are actually travelling and it's easier to think a little bit more about the body as we swing the golf club and forget what this is actually doing as it moves. So when we talk about flatten on plane firstly as I did take my address position here what you'll see now is a line up the chassis and each call is designed to set a certain angle and then that could be designed to move around our body in a certain angle.
