Since I have been playing golf for the past 16 months the hardest thing for me to grasp and consistently execute is finishing the golf swing. Finishing my golf swing always felt very awkward until I had a conversation with Tony while leaving the course last evening. Tony is a self taught, very good golfer that played high level college football until he got hurt which prevented him from going pro. Tony practices constantly and after telling him about my delema with finishing my swing he gave me some great advice - "The finish of the golf swing is like throwing the club towards the target." I went to the practice range today and I must say Tony you are right. I had no trouble finishing my swing using his advice. My club traveled naturally down the target line and finished over my shoulders with my belly button facing the target. My divits weren't these huge holes in the ground because I was trying too hard to hit down on the ball or trying to steer the ball and not complete my swing. Thanks Tony.

Kevin Gill's "One Thought - One Move" is the best I've found for staying on plane. Point the butt of the club at the ball going back, and try to hit the ball with the butt coming down. That part alone corrected many flaws in my swing. Most all instructors, at some point, might suggest that you place a white tee in the end of the grip as a pointer to aim at the target line going back, but Kevin Gill is adamant that this is the one ‘move’ that will bring about a good swing, when used in both directions (and related to the ball instead of the target line), and I would have to agree.

Use your shoulders to begin the back swing instead of your hands.

I seem to be having difficulty in a number of areas with my golf swing. I have trouble shifting my weight efferently. My divit seems to be starting prior to me making contact with the ball. I have difficulty keeping my wrist cocked on impact and I am having the hardest time compressing the ball. Any advice anyone?
