Recently I have been absolutely creaming my Irons but after a long time struggling off the tee - I bit the bullet and took a lesson today.

And guess what yes that’s right its the same old bad habits getting back into my game.

In short I was swaying not rotating and loosing width at the top (while letting my right elbow fly - and hand coming off the club). After 50 or so horrid shots during the lesson I took lunch and stood in the practice net for a few hours (course busy) and low and behold I went from shocking to shanking and back to spanking the Irons. Driving was not much improved but I no longer have to think about the weight transfer - it just happens - I don’t need to think of release it just happens. And it actually feels like a golf swing.

Let’s hope it’s all good tomorrow - playing a match for the club at 3.30 and I have to take jnr swimming in the morning so no practice. I will just have to forget the theory from today and welt a few tomorrow.
