Is Luke Donald’s Wandering Spine Angle Stopping Him From Seriously Challenging Tiger Woods?

Posted by admin under Golf Coaching

Luke Donald is one of many young promising golfers who never seem to fulfill their potential. Most observers ascribe this to some mental defect (lack of will to win), but Somaxsports found otherwise.

Somaxsports & Efficient Golfer had the opportunity to measure Luke Donald’s swing recently. Here is what they found:-

Address
This is Luke at address with his driver. The first hint of any problem is his Spine Angle. The tour norm at address is 25-30°. Luke has a Spine Angle of 38°, which is 27% outside of the norm.

Golf Video : Ernie Els practising on the range with a drill to stop dropping it inside in the golf back-swing

I believe in a swing thought of rythmn, timing and balance - if the rythmn is poor, it can lead to poor timing and balance, poor timing can result in off-balance etc.

Playing in the wind regularly can often lead to misalignment, which can greatly affect the golf swing plane. Sometimes if the wind has been coming 20-30 yards worth off the read it is easy to be aiming too far right and swinging it on the inside instead of a nice big wide turn and getting in the ’slot’ at the top of the back-swing.

Please click onto the video of Ernie Els practising. I feel this is a real good drill to stop golfers from swinging it on the inside and the drill should help far greater back-swing width.
