Mitchell Spearman told me personally today that i need to rewind...go back to drill 2 before i work on my full swing. I've been losing so much balance in my downswing it's stupid and a simple little checkup by a top 100 pro just made me realize :

"Before you can advance, you must first master the reverse."

Makes sense to me...now!

Can you explain in simpler terms? Not really understanding what you are saying.

if you want to advance in skill, you should go over the fundamentals again and really nail those down.

i tried moving way too fast, going from 0-60 before i was ready. I need to go back to the beginning if i really want to improve.

I've recently realized this myself. Just wish it didn't take so long to bang it through my thick skull!!

He wrote the AIM book, right? Just curious - would you know how much he charges for a lesson?

Soooo true....god, I went through a spell where I was hitting a 20 foot draw with everyting from a 8 iron down.....couldn't hit a pin on the right of the green without starting it over trouble....I have spent the last two weeks working on getting a good feeling with a weaker grip...... Just a crazy fukkin game.

    • It’s simple. Hook it onto the tee box of the adjacent hole. Get a GIR with your approach. Birdie hole. #5 Hook it to the adjacent fairway Hit green with next shot. Birdie hole. I call it the Bill Method.
    • I’ll have to pay attention more attention to the area when I’m there. I know the area to the left of the bunkers off the tee is fescue/native vegetation but I can’t remember what’s around the tee boxes. Something to consider still is that you can’t see the green from the tee. You can’t even see all three bunkers IIRC. So I could have a line on the drive but still not know where it ends up. I think I’d be a lot more comfortable going with driver if I played here more regularly and had a log in my head of where shots tend to end up like I do at the other county courses. I have never hit driver on this hole off the blue tees. I have done it from the gold, but the length and angle are different, and during casual rounds when I didn’t care that much about score. I’m not sure the best time to try it is the second hole of a tournament. Or at the very least, I’m uncomfortable with the idea and that’s probably enough reason not to do it. I see what you’re saying. Wind is supposed to be pushing out more to the right on Saturday, too. I could probably aim right at the bunker and not end up in it. I don’t think there’s anything near the green other than that tiny bunker that would give me trouble. Well, trouble in addition to my short game deficiencies that is. Yea, me too. All I’m thinking is get it in play, put it near the green, chip on and two putt for 5. I’ll have plenty of opportunities to use my length as an advantage later. You realize all of this theory crafting will be moot when I chunk it off the tee, right? 😆
