Made a few changes lately to fundamentals and I seem to be hitting the ball well most of the time.

Any suggestions to improve technique, or fix/reduce flaws are welcome! My stock iron shot is usually a slight draw, but I can pull it left sometimes.

From what I can see, areas of improvement could be:
- keeping head stiller on the downswing
- keep left foot firmly on the ground

Thanks!

Whats your swing like with a ball and on grass?? Practise swings are just that practise swings. You do seem to be set up with the club head to far forward in the swing. Almost like a driver set up.

Looks Ok, what's your h/cap?

Hmm yeah well spotted! I guess it is too far forward - I'll make a note and move it back a touch next time I play. Swing on grass with a ball I *think* is pretty similar. I'll have to take the camera out with me on the course soon and take a couple of vids.

I don't have an official one as I've not joined a club and currently with 2 young kids have no time for competitions etc. Generally I get to play once at the weekend, and then when I can at the range during work lunch hours. I broke 80 a few times recently though . I guess its somewhere between 10 and 15.

Hi I only ask as your ball position could be ok on grass. Hard to tell without from your own stance. When I practice without a ball at home. I use a ball marker so I have an idea where the ball should be. Other than that and dipping your head, it looks pretty good. Yes a few vid's on the course would be great. Look forward to seeing them.
