On behalf of expertvillage.com my name is
Ray Boone and I run the Ray Boone Golf Academy at the beautiful Miami Beach Golf Club. Today
I'd like to present to you the topic of the over the top golf swing. We're back with the
over the top golf swing, we've corrected your grip, now we're going to look at what goes
on as your setup position. So most players have the tendency to setup with their posture
tilted, their right elbow out too much. What we'd like to do in the golf swing to correct
it is to get the right elbow underneath, get the left shoulder up higher so that they're
going to be able to hit the golf ball from inside the line. So when we setup the left
shoulder is up high, the right shoulder is down low, you can even feel like your left
hip is up high, higher than the right hip as you setup to it. So we're going to setup
and then we can go into our back swing from there.
So again your setup position is critical
in getting you to swing the club in from inside to be able to get a nice powerful draw rather
than that over the top swing that most players have..
