Weight Shift Problem

[TCCcaddie]

I have this one thing that is killing me at the moment. When i take my backswing i lock up my back leg and my wieght all goes to my front leg. It opens me up and makes me push the ball. Anyone have any tips or drills to help me get over this?

It sounds to me like you are using too much lower body in the golf shot. Check out THP TV volume 4 for the drills about hitting balls with your feet together. This will help you feel what your upper body should be doing in the swing. You are a good candidate for the drill about dropping the front foot back a little bit to get the feel of a restricted takeaway with a full follow through. Check out the drills and let me know how it works out for you.

Take a look at Amollerud's response in this thread as well TCC, I had a similiar problem.
