Thin Shots? Your Swing Bottom Isn't Where You Think

Thin shots are one of the most common mishits in golf, but most instruction focuses on the symptom rather than the cause. Erika breaks down exactly why the club comes in too high and walks through four specific root causes that are easy to check and fix without overhauling your swing. If your golf fundamentals need a closer look, grab Erika's free 5 Principles of a True Swing FREE guide → https://bit.ly/3DMcCb7 It covers the core movement patterns behind every solid shot and gives you a simple framework to start building from. In this video, you'll learn: - Why thin shots are a geometry problem, not a technique mystery, and how the swing circle pulling away from the ground is the real culprit - How poor posture and a flat shoulder turn preset the club to arrive above the ball before you even start moving - Why standing too close to the ball forces the arms to bend and shorten the swing radius through impact - How gripping down on the club quietly makes thin contact more likely and what to do instead - Why ball position relative to the actual bottom of your swing determines whether you catch the ball on the way down or the way up These four checkpoints apply to every iron and hybrid in your bag and will give you a clear, practical path to more solid contact immediately.
