I have been having some lessons for a good couple of months and its sort of not going as planned for me. The coach is a great guy really knowledgeable, I am not knocking him in this post.
For context if it helps I wasn't happy with my swing, the misses it was giving me and my general play on the course. I have always been someone who slightly goes inside on the takeaway and leads me to be "cross the line" or long at the top. I fortunately don't go steep (over the top) from the top so my tendencies from this swing trait is that I suffer from coming massively down inside which can lead to hit raking hooks/blocks and the odd shank. The GCquad used can pick this up at 12 degrees into out sometimes. Like most golfers, on the day I "time" this all well I play good and I am not short of speed at all so I can go fairly low everyone now and then, but its becoming less and less frequent.
The lessons are an effort to just be better get myself more neutral if that's a thing and have less of a destructive miss but at the moment I am in a slight weird phase and am struggling to get out of it. The changes we are trying to make leads to my golf swing being completely robotic looking and more importantly moving. My friend recently said it looks quite painful to watch, its robotronic in its nature and looks like each piece of the swing is being done independently of each other but I am getting close to the "desired" positions. I must saying having had videos before and after; my "old" swing is completed by the time the new one is at the top of the backswing. Even though I am really trying my hardest to make the change/s its causing me different faults like the fats and thins (low point control) because I am just not moving properly in the swing.
When I try to add some flow and rhythm back into my swing I just go back to my old ways pretty much immediately. I know this means a I don't own these changes yet but its been a good couple of months of trying and I am actually regressing.
Anyone had anything similar and any tips of trying to make changes whilst for lack of a better word keeping the flow in the golf swing?
Cheers
