I've been Playing Golf for: 35 years (a lot as a teenager, but not much since 2006)

My current handicap index or average score is: 83

My typical ball flight is: Draw, but I hit my share of push slices and pull hooks as well as some small fades

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Pull/Hook, Push/Slice, Fat shot & skull with wedges

Videos:

Gap Wedge

Just curious...do you always start your swing with picking it up like that at the beginning or is that just the way you practice?

I took some lessons about 7 years ago at the Jim Mclean school in Florida and my instructor there had me start doing that as I was not getting much wrist cock on the way back and the club was getting ahead of my hands on the way down (flipping/negative shaft lean at impact).  The plan was to eventually get rid of the pause and make it more of a continuous motion, but I started playing less and got comfortable with the move so I haven`t taken it out yet.

      Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.

      Which Irons for Next Season

      By Typhoon92 ·

      It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno….

      Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
