My golf swing looks much better without a ball.

My golf swing looks much better without a ball. In particular, I tend to swing more over the top with a ball in front of me. Why??

Hello John. With the ball in front the brain tends to focus on the strike versus making the move and the ball getting in the way. It feels powerful to swing from the top when that is the opposite of sequencing the downswing. Players also expect to be able to go full speed without the required reps at pace.
