Analyze Your Over-the-Top with V1 GOLF
Slow motion video reveals exactly what's causing your over-the-top — and how to fix it.
What Causes an Over-the-Top Swing?
The club works over the plane on the downswing, producing pulls, slices, and weak contact.
The club head appearing outside the hands at the start of the downswing. Best seen in the down-the-line view.
Key frames to check:
- P4 (top of backswing) — where are the hands?
- P5 (early downswing) — is the club above or below the backswing plane?
- P6 (impact) — steep angle of attack
