  1. Fantastic Mark! Cheers I’ve been wondering this, I’ve hit a few balls down
    the range where I’ve felt almost like the clubface was exposed during the
    backswing, but the quality of my strikes has been much zippier doing it, I
    was a bit afraid to adopt it in case the plane looked out as a result
    though. Think I will adjust my backswing.

  2. I also swing back under the plane but my club face is open instead of shut.
    Should I try to feel like my club face is shut more and keep the club head
    outside my hands longer to combat this?

  3. Thanks. I am about a 3 handicap with this issue sometimes. I catch my self
    hooking it which really hurts my game. thanks alot… best youtube
    professional out there. Props lad

  4. @4golfonline Do you have any fixes for a player who is relatively new to
    golf, but is decent, who often shanks the ball or sees it come off the face
    straight as an arrow but right?

  5. Thank you Mark for taking the time to make ALL the videos and post them on
    YouTube Mark. Life has been in the way the past few years and from
    selecting clubs to the actual swing, no one has helped me more. This
    particular video Showa the fault I have which has caused me lots of back
    pain. Now the swing is SO much easier AND powerful with no back pain.
    Really cool to hear the ball hissing to the target and landing much closer
    to the target. It’s as if the target is my focus, not “hitting the bal

  6. I`m an 8 handicap with a similar swing, I have a tendancy to flip the
    wrists too much to counteract the swing causing a pull, and when I`m not on
    my game it goes either straight right or I pull it badly, I`ve been trying
    to work on getting a more on plane swing so this advice is great, thx

  7. Mark, I used this method today and what a difference I noticed in regards
    to striking the ball consistently. Thanks so much for the visual on where
    the club head is supposed to be in relation to the hips and ground. I have
    been playing for about year and this is the first time that I have ever
    used this method of the back swing. Its like the light went on and that’s
    how your hands and club head are supposed to look like. Great instruction
    and video. Thanks, Mark.

  8. These tips are amazing. I was doing a similar thing with my club face and
    didn’t know that it was wrong. Thanks very much for this free lesson.

  9. Thanks mark, this is the problem I’ve always had, coming under plane and
    either hitting big hooks or high blocks. Going to give this a shot today.

  10. This is the exact same problem I have. The clubhead remains closed all
    throughout the backswing, and when I swing down there is just nothing I can
    do to keep it from hooking way left. I tried some of the tips in this video
    two weeks ago and hit some of the best shots of my life. Then I played last
    week and fell back into some old habits and hit a lot of pulls. I guess I
    just need to keep practicing and realize that it will take time to
    incorporate this change in my swing. Thanks a million!

  11. Mark, What program do you use on your Mac for viewing and diagraming golf
    swings? And what video camera do you use? Your videos are always first
    class. You never disappoint. Keep them coming.

  12. This one was perfect for me. I went out today and played 18 holes and I
    have problems with clubface control. Not the same problem as this guy
    had…mine is the opposite, I always have an open clubface at impact, and
    it goes to the right. So this video helped me a little. I just have to
    practice getting it square at impact and I’ll hit straighter shots.
