What is "Over The Top?"

I am told by my friends that I have a problem with coming "over the top" in my golf swing. What does that mean and I how do I fix it?

This is a very common problem. The term "over the top" is refering to the fact that you are starting your golf swing with your upper body or shoulders as opposed to your lower body or hips.

When you are coming over the top, your divots go to the left of your target. This means that your shaft is going through impact moving to the left of your target. You will need to focus on making your shaft go at the target and even to the right of the target at first. Be aware of your divots and you will be on your way to fixing your swing challenge. Let us know how it goes!
