I know its early in the season, but I had this problem at the end of last year too and I'm a little worried that its going to stick around and affect my game. Out of the blue towards last season I started making contact consistently closer to the heel.

I couldn't drastically try to change my swing either because it was October, I was playing in important tournaments and I figured I could work it out. Well I've played 4 times so far this year and I can't seem to shake it. Any tips would help.

Right shoulder up and around maybe?

Try a lateral move with the hips to start downswing, no disturbance of club angle, quiet hands.

Also, maybe too inside on the takeaway?

Just some random thoughts.

I'm down to a 10 handicap. At this rate, I'll get to scratch at 90 years old!
