After reading this months GM i decided to try the sergio garcia tip for driving,my usual drive is a push right so i aim slightly left.After reading the article and then going up the range to try it out i can safely say my confidence in my driver,after removing it from my bag for the last two months has rocketed.I really concentrate on turning not sliding the hips and then keeping my right arm on the downswing closer to my body it seems to be working.Also whats your best tip thats helped you with a problem where did you get it from and off whom?
 
My pro got me working on shifting my weight to the left through my swing. I used to hang back on my right and scoop. Not only was it inconsistant, it was damaging my ankle.

Now i'm more consistant, but still have sore ankles.

I'm now working on keeping my head behind the ball when I'm driving to try to get rid of my slice. Seems to be working thus far :)
 
the DVD that came with the mag helped me with my driving and seems to have cured my crazy slice. When you follow through to have your arms crossed made all the difference to me at the weekend past.i hit more than half straight down the middle so touch wood it's helped.Being a beginner it helps to see in video whats meant to happen instead of pictures although I am trying to remember Sergios ball placement for clubs.
 
i have made limited progress over the past year, but my putting has improved. I had a lesson with the club pro and the key thing he said was "start believing you are a good putter, because you are". Sounds silly, but whenever I am putting badly I always remember what he said and it gives me confidence...then hey presto, I make some putts!
