The Fix for an Over the Top Swing Feels Wrong #golf #golfer #golflife

Golf-Ed explains that correcting an over-the-top swing path often feels unnatural because the brain prioritizes comfort over technical correctness. To achieve a proper plane, golfers must embrace the discomfort of exaggerated corrections during practice.

• A correct swing path will likely feel 'wrong' or uncomfortable at first.
• The brain naturally reverts to what feels comfortable, even if it's technically incorrect.
• Fixing an over-the-top move requires exaggerated physical corrections to find the neutral plane.
• Successful swing changes depend on training a new 'feel' rather than relying on natural instincts.
