Right, my pro has given me a new stance/posture (above). However, I am now really struggling to hit the ball, hitting too many deep divots and slicing the ball right.

I was given this new stance to help me combat my already inconsistent ball striking.

Here is my major problem, I'm playing the Belfry tomorrow and its going to be one big hack if I play like I did at the range this morning.....

Well I had the stance given to me Friday, and I have hit around 200 balls with it. Admittedly it probably isn't long enough, but I just seem to really struggle with it! I was given a similar stance with my previous pro and I struggled with it the first time. The photo provided was taken by my pro, and so I think that I may possibly be holding the club too upright when I'm practicing on my own. I will see if I can post a photo of my stance from today.

If only on Friday I personally would be inclined to make most of day out at belfry tomorrow with a stance your comfortable with and then put the hours in on new stance posture before your next lesson a major change won't happy quickly and 200 balls over a weekend is pretty hardcore maybe even too many too quickly?
1.75hr range session is heavy goingI
