Thanks for taking so much time to write all that... At the moment I'm now practising with a 10" piece of 4"x 2" block of wood 2 inchs outside my ball.. if I come over the top the block of wood gets a belt at the back... A bit agricultural I know but here's the thing.. I now feel stange swinging...

This post means a lot Duncan. Thank you... I've got this wired knack of being able to swing a few ways. But very rarely am I able to produce a draw at will.. I always seen to think it happens accidently... 12 months ago I was on our practice range.. riddled with tension and "hitting" at the...

I'm definitely one plane mate. And I've read all that about Jim Hardy. Have to divot pattern and everything. Curved divots that go left indicating an in to in swingpath... It's probably the reason why sometimes I hit a draw out of nowhere and can't figure out why.. All I'm looking for is...

Probably should have posted swing path.. I go left pretty quick through impact.. I always have.. ever since I started playing... 3 years ago I decided to go for a series of 8 lessons and try as he did my coach just could not get me to swing more down the line. I just couldn't do it.. it feels...

Ok. Id love to hear some stories about how you've either changed yours or have stuck with what you have.. I've hit a bit of a wall improvement wise and to get lower I feel I need to make a pretty sizable change to my swing.. Most probably think I'm mad anyway but its definitely what's holding...

Very similar to this. I used to hit it a lot off the tee. I measure my carry for it on our 13th par 3. It's 202 mtrs to the green centre in still air no wind it's as far as I can hit it off a tee. Swing speed is slightly above 100mph. I also carry 2 hybrids. The stronger being a 20 degree. I...

luckily I have the time and also a pretty flexible better half.. when I say time I still have the 9 to 6 job and the 2 kids but I'll always try fit practice in when I can. I play twice a week competitively and because my son who is 8 also plays I get to throw in a few hours practice with him on...

Doesn't matter what Category golfer you are. Opinions are always welcome.. It's definitely technique based. I know this because I'm very strong mentally when playing. Bad shots don't get to me as much as others. But here's the rub. .. her shot on that hole was poor technique. Had to drop in...

I understand that mate. But trust me one of the things of always said when I took the game up was that I hope when I get low enough I don't find it a chore. I don't want it to be a slog week in week out trying to post a score. I've always said that. At the moment I haven't reached that point...

That's a brilliant attitude Murg. It's something od love to have but I'm always striving to get better. Not because I think it makes me superior to someone else but because for me I'm one of those people that loves a challenge. I suppose playing football all my life I still have that...

Cheers pal.. I'm similar. After hearing how long it took Andy Sullivan to change to a fade (9 months) after Nick Dougherty asked him what he was working on and how it was going. He said it's coming along ok but I'm still not fully comfortable with it yet.. that's a tour pro with all the time In...

I've been playing this game now for 7 yrs. I've jumped in with both feet into the mechanics of my swing and tried to find what works and what doesn't. That's still ongoing by the way. Lately I've been struggling a bit. With ball contact and also direction. I've always seen the game left to...

Can someone clarify something. When Johnson had the drop out of the rough from the camera tower being on the way. Why did he take 2 club lengths? I was of the impression that a penalty drop was 2 club lengths and that a free drop for relief was 1.

It happens me at times Bill. You just come out of that bubble in the present situation and just maybe slip up somewhere in the routine a bit.. I know that's what happens to me. Down to the smallest thing like addressing the ball and not quite feeling right over it but saying to yourself in your...

Take it as a positive pal.. I've been similar over the past few weeks. Took a nice drop to 4.8 and currently sit at 5.5 after 7 0.1's. Been beating myself up about it as I've shot 3 gross 73's and a couple of 76's. And have all but played myself off our Snr and Jnr Cup and Barton Shield teams as...
