I love this swing and ball flight! However, I am the antithesis of a lead arm athlete. If I ever broke my right hand, I would require help with the most simplest of daily activities! I am SO right hand dominant. But, I make this swing and setup work for me, by simply making myself stay closed and not allowing my right shoulder and arm to come over my left. I am still using my right side, but in a more passive and less aggressive manner. When it’s good, it’s GREAT! I want to rejoin the JVGA, but it’s not as affordable, for me, as it once was. Hopefully I can make it happen soon. JV swing is gold! Thanks Jim, for all the free content!

I’ve been using Jim’s swing method for a couple of months with encouraging results. However, of late, I’m hitting about 60% pretty well and 40% shanks. Once I shank one, I’ll hit 4 or 5 more shanks before I can correct it. Hit a few more good ones and there it is again. Tried several things to correct whatever the error is with little success. Anyone else experience this or have an idea what’s happening? Need help.
@jimvenetosgolf3 ай бұрын
@@agnsthwnd1941 copy that. The only correction is to improve your set up position and improve your stillness. The best way to do that is sign up for my school so I can guide you in the process. The good shots you’ve had are evidence that if you learn the system properly, you’ll likely hit those good shots.

I've been working on the JV swing lately, and when I keep my shoulders closed and weight on my left side, it's mind blowing how easy a good golf swing seems. I top it occasionally but I really like how it takes all the crazy hand and leg movements out of the equation. Seriously considering signing up for his school. Anyone else here in his school? If so, how has it worked for you?
