Fix for coming over the top

I have struggled with the "coming over the top" problem all my life. Alright, not my ENTIRE life, but all my golfing life, which is 6 years.

My coach did all he could to help me fix it, but it would come back. The main problem was that I needed to have a cue that I could understand in terms of the feeling I should get on the down swing. That never happened.

Until I came across this video by Dave Marsh on youtube recently. "Drop your hands" is such an incredibly simple tip that I understood it right away, and have played much better golf since I started trying it on the course.

If you have an "over the top" problem with your golf swing, you must check out this video. Happy golfing!

A couple of years ago I discovered some of the best golf instruction videos on the Internet. Videojug - a repository of "how-to" videos - hosts these videos from Rickard Strongert, a teaching pro at Los Naranjos golf course in Spain.

Strongert's videos are good because he keeps things simple, and demonstrates the key aspects of every shot very clearly. Strongert's instruction works. After watching his video on the greenside bunker shot, I have never feared the bunker shot again. Open stance, open clubface, ball in the middle of the stance, and swing along your stance - Strongert makes it very easy to understand.

Thanks Rickard, I am a big fan!
