I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years

My current handicap index or average score is: Don;t Keep one

My typical ball flight is: Pull with the shorter clubs and Hook with the longer clubs

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: A Pull and a Hook


The following videos are from the last 3 months. I'm located north of the board so I've had to head indoors in the last one.

First off I was just fitted a month ago for new clubs, didn't end up buying anything but had my clubs bent because there were to upright. I was told that was the biggest factor in the Pulls and Hooks. Anyways just looking for everyone's thoughts about my move and any potential problems you see. Also anyone know why in the last month my follow-through has become more "chicken winged" In all videos I'm hitting the same 58 degree wedge with a 64 degree lie.

Videos:

Nov. 2012

This is the swing I think I liked the most. It seemed very round (inside to inside) but produced the biggest pulls. I had to open the face 5 degrees and pull it back on target, but I believed that was lie angle related. Also I was told by a pro that I was standing a little to far away from the ball and was reaching a bit.

Dec. 2012

This was a fluke day in the middle of December where all the snow had melted and  we had 50 degree weather. I had tweaked the swing to try and keep my right heel down a little longer.

Jan. 2013

I hate hitting off mats. This was taken yesterday and I am really starting to notice a "left arm wing". I also noticed I am starting to stand closer to the ball and Swing more upright. Since the lie angle of this club was never adjusted I am wondering if the high toe on the mat is more prominent and causing me to hold off a release to "not go left".

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

In those outside vids.  Do you have your dog trained to pick up balls for you?

    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
    • I would guess putting grooves in it might make it non-conforming. I am not sure how stringent the USGA is on restoring golf clubs.
    • If PT doesn't work, then all other options (shots) are just temporary bandages of the pain. You may do more damage. Pain is the bodies way of telling you to STOP. Once you get rid of that, you are just now using an already damaged body part and put more stress and strain on it.
