I had the opposite, slicing the driver. I just couldnt work it out as my swing path seemed fine but then I videoed my swing and my club face was open at impact. Now I close it slightly it goes straight(most of the time) but if i close it slightly too much i get a massive hook.
The video...
Played my 1st competition yesterday with 7 people from work and managed to win. Played 3/4 handicap so played off 20 on the day and managed to score 27 points. Really enjoyed the competitive side of it so joined a club so i can start playing them more. :cool:
Ive resisted to go and try 1 yet as I find the driver off the tee my easiest shot but really struggle with woods off the deck so may be an option for a 3 wood replacement
Ive got the covert vrs Driver and on a launch monitor 11.5 ○ was best as I was de lofting it with my swing but now ive had lessons and ny swing has changed 9.5○ is now best so im glad of the adjustability tbh.
Played my 1st 18 holes today after playing 9 holes twice. Played with seanb on here and loved it. I scored 99 which I didn't think was too bad for only the 3rd time on a course and my target this year was to break 100 so over the moon.
I need to work on my fitness though as struggled on the...
Im doing over the top drills that my pro showed me. Basically I have to feel like im dropping the club head behind me before starting down swing. Then I put a ball at 1 oclock of targetand 2ft in front and feel like im trying to hit it after the ball I want to hit
I also think it stems down to re saleability. I bought a set of x14 iron recently for 65 quid as a starter set of irons. I know I could have got dunlop ones for a similar price but in 2 years time should I wish to upgrade, I will get more for the callaways than the dunlops
Went to driving range with my brother in law recently and didnt have my clubs and hes got a cheap set of dunlops. Cost about 90 quid all in and I was surprised how nice they felt and how easy they was to hit and launch
Dont think ot helped but had a bit of a bad back the day before. Wouldnt have gone if I didnt have the lesson. Oh well it will get better.
I started hitting better towards the end of the lesson and happy with where its going.
Yes hes given me a number of drills and said 2 weeks would be best as I practice 3-4 times a week. He said if I have any problems then I can bring the lesson forward. Pulled a muscle in my back last night so may need to push it back if I cant practice
