hi i am jackie want to talk
keep ur eyes on the ball carefully swing rite on the spot
It’s hard to explain in words. Get a trainer, or just go to a range and ask someone to help you out. If they are nice enough they will take time to teach you.
Left side, assuming you are right handed. Too much right in your swing and the ball will hook left.
Never played golf but I would think just put your eye on ball and completely relax your body and swing naturally
Every ones a little different, you may want to try this. The first move should be to start the downswing by replanting your left heel-(Ben Hogan’s-5 easy lessons). This will solidify your left side. The downswing ‘motion starts with a slow and deliberate pull of the LEFT ARM…On an ‘inside path’ while simultaneously clearing the left side or rotation to the left (Assuming you are a right handed player) in a smooth fluid motion…accelerating in an increasingly moderated amount. By letting the left hand guide the swing you will automatically find you will clear the left side and hit a more powerful shot…make sure not to sway left…it will lead to an open club face and a fade or slice. May I recommend Ben Hogans 5 easy lessons as a fundamental base for your swing…A fabulous and very helpful guide! Best of luck!! J
