Hitting it like a 5 4 h/cap putting like a 18 h/cap

[eltub1]

Only wish i could putt, its frustrating as ? i could shave 2 shots off my 7 h/cap if i could putt.... hitting it really well but putting like a ladies pee thing!!!

What parts of your game are letting you down?

I hit 2 bad shots today, both ended in the thigh high clag that seems to be growing at our place and cost me blobs, they were on the 1st and 18th. The 16 holes in between were as well as I've played. A par on one of those holes would have won me the comp. Honestly can't fault any part of my game over the last 2 rounds and my new Scotty is like a magicians wand. If you'd have asked this question a month ago the answer would have been all of it, it's amazing what two weeks in the Swiss mountains can do for your golf

Driving accuracy - I'm either nailing it down the middle or hitting it OOB left or right. The sad thing is I know how to hit it straight, I just don't 50% of the time. No matter how much I practice the same issue returns every few rounds to destroy my score - today my driver cost me at least 10 shots. On the plus side my wedge play is probably the best its ever been at the moment for no reason other than that I am completely confident when standing over a shot from 20 - 100 metres.

Swap you. My last 5 rounds putting have been 29, 29, 29, 27, 28... And I've slipped to 5.8 coz I can't post a decent score.

Keep it bottled for the Volvo match as we may need you!!

Can't hit a long iron to save my life. Except at the range - can hit 'em there. Very frustrating - 4 iron used to be my favourite club, now I try to take some off a 5 wood rather than use it.

 

[Hendo007]

Putting for me too at the moment. Apart from that I don't think about my club selection enough before hitting the ball and inevitably come up short costing me shot or two.

 

[Imurg]

Short chips are my Nemesis at the moment.
If I don't knock them stone dead then they're miles short or thinned through.....
And I'm not crisping my irons either.

On the plus side - driving is getting better.....

 

[Jaymosafehands]

Driving. low scuddy pull or massive high slice, with the odd booming 260 yard straight one, and I haven't a blooming' clue whats coming. Makes each hole exciting.....

 

[DaveM]

If you had asked this question a fortnight ago, I would have said nothing. But now it just about every club in the bag. Except the putter. Talk about high ang lows.

I will let you know after tomorrows stableford following 2 good range sessions this week

The next time you play, get one of yor mates to video your stroke and post it on here.
I'm sure it's something simple tht has slipped

 

[mcbroon]

Same as you putting. Last time out hit 16 GIR , had 4 three putts and one birdie.

Knocked a 9 iron to 8 feet on one of the par 3s, my playing partner (uncle) says "chance of a 2" to which my old man replies "more like a chance of a 3, the way he putts".

And he was right.

 

[Picto]

Every shot except my short game!

Yesterday - I holed more chips than I did 2/3ft putts

Now, if I can get the rest of my game up to my short game standard, I might actually stand a chance with this golf thing!!

My mate is a really good putter (5 h/cap), hes told me what im doing wrong but putting has always been my downfall just cant seem to get it right ... he thinks its simple what im doing wrong but its in my head and i cant work out if im ***** at putting cant read a putt or just unlucky.....when your low on confidence its hard to get it out your head

Have you just tried following your mate's advice?

 

[eltub1]

Yes but unfortunatley i always slip back in my old way... lifting my head and turning my wrists closing the putter face .....i guess or i hope ill get through it

If only there was a way of stopping those wrists from turning.....

LOL! More business eh Bob?

For me its nothing in particular, but its all not good quite good enough. Last 4 round have been 79's - which means I have copped 0.1 each time. Consistent yes - (consistenly not quite good enough however).
