Sounds interesting. I'll give this a go. Take your point jammy dodger it's just that i've finally got the ball going (reasonably) straight... now I've got to make the rather substantial change of swinging out to in (fade) to swinging in to out (draw)! Depressing!

I don't have a video, I'll try and get one up though. Would be great to get some guidance from yourself and the other readers. Yeah I do hit left to right a bit. Had a lesson on Friday, the pro said I have an out to in swing (leaving a divot facing a few degrees left of centre). We did some...

Yeah launching them far to high. Even with my low irons. In fact there is very little difference in distance between my 4-9 irons! All just launch up in the air.

What elements of a swing influence the height of ball flight? My friend and I played yesterday and both of us have extremely high ball flights. Into the wind we were losing a lot of distance.

So Homer, you don't take a practice swing when you address? I usally do one or two full practice swings a few inches inside the ball just to get a feel. You do it before you walk over to the ball?

Thanks for the reply! Exactly what I'm looking for. 3 day looks especially interesting... Any experience of this academy yourself? Or references?

Yep I've had 3 or 4 lessons but being in London and not having a car make's it tricky to get do them... 1hr + commute each way. I'm thinking a week of intensive golf tuition and playing would be the best thing for my game.

I've googled quite a bit and they do exist, although not many. One or two good looking ones in the US and many, many that look like total charlatans. Keen for recommendations, after all, that's the only way to get some good objective views.

My terrible game has finally got too much for me. This summer I'm going to forfeit the usual relaxation on the beach and enroll in an intensive Golf Boot Camp! I'm totally flexible about location... somewhere sunny like Algarve, US or Asia would be nice but if the best (and best value) is in...
