Also, read up on the ball flight laws, especially since you've been getting conflicting info regarding club face, club path, etc. You can diagnose many of your problems on your own solely based on how the ball flies. Good luck! 

 

Yes post it in the Member swings forum

Hi Colin,

 

I understand - it is what makes it much worse. It is the same with players at my local club and with the Pro's who are trying to help me.

 

I shot -6 once (best score) but in the last couple of months when I was playing I was regularly shooting -2/-4 on training rounds. As you can see from my tournament score cards - I was very regular at hitting par, and when i wasn't nervous, I was more aggressive with my putts. Also, I played every single day for 6 months straight at least 3 hours and 6 hours Sat and Sun, so it is not the same as someone playing once a week. So almost 30 hours a week golf. There is no point in cheating in golf - the only person you cheat is yourself and if you cheat yourself than you are a very lowly person indeed.

 

I think my problem is, that I learnt to play completely by feel, no technical lessons, no indepth analysis and now I no longer am able to feel what is incorrect, and in trying to find a solution am just making everything worse.

 

If I can get to the range tonight, I will take a new video of my swing.

This thread doesn't make sense.  Guy shoots 6 under after a year, his average distance to the pin on 120 meter shots (3 meters) is better than the PGA tour average, has a bunch of pros unable to figure out his swing, everyone thinks he's a cheater and now he can't hit the ball in the air and comes to an online forum for answers.

 

Sounds like an modified movie script. I think he just needs Will Smith (Bagger Vance) as his caddy and everything will work itself out. Jordy, just find your one true swing!

I thought I had it my friend! :) I thought I would come onto a forum to find some actual help - 3 local pro's from my club can't help me, but when I know there are more than 20,000 PGA pro's in the World, I am sure that someone has seen a problem like mine.

 

The greens on my course are nothing like a PGA tour course!! :) They don't have stimp readings of +12. It doesn't have the grand canyon depression or himalayan mountain range running through it.

 

Not everyone thinks I am cheater - Everyone who has played with me, tournaments and training at my club +/- 100 people know exactly how I play but they also don't understand what is wrong and think it is all just in my head.

 

I think however, I have come to the wrong place because people just seem to want to mock me - I have an honest problem that I do not know how to solve and I am being as open and honest as possible so that everyone can understand what I need help with.

 

For example if you ask me how long I hit my driver - I tell you honestly 220m and not very well - too much trying and not enough rhythm.

 

If you ask me how I used to hit my 58 degree wedge - 80m - that will stop almost immediately and avg of 2-3 m from the pin. My 58/54/PW and 9 iron were my best clubs. Even the club champion said my wedges were ridiculous - but remember I trained with my wedges for 6 months 30 hours a week - plus I have a net at home that I used - I played purely on feeling and now I have lost it? :(

 

Next time I am at the range - hopefully tonight, I will take some videos and upload!

I have posted a video of my swing from last year - this was after I had been playing about 3 months. I was told that my left foot turns on impact and I was swinging too aggressively and steeply - which I worked on. At this time - I was a 4 HCP on the Par 3 course.

Nex time I am at the range - I will film my god awful uncontrollable slice and also me hitting the ball perfectly with a dynamic "happy gilmore" swing :)
