Hey guys, I'm beginning to enjoy golf enough to do more than 2 benefit outings a year. I've been doing 9 holes solo a good bit this summer and now looking for tips and tricks to help me get better. First things first I'll be sifting through the pages to figure out better techniques for spotting my 40 yard hook I too often send into the woods.

search out all you can find on youtube on the "stack and tilt" swing.   Designed to simplify the golf swing & helped  me tremendously when I started out a few years ago...

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'm still concentrating on points of my swing (left arm straight, firing my hips into my swing, follow through, etc) so it's just trying to engrave a muscle memory at this point. I use a strong grip on my driver, semi strong on woods, and almost neutral on my irons...except my sand wedge, I have to use a very strong grip for some reason. I'd like to see if I can get consistent enough to validate the cost of custom fit clubs, at 6'5" I think a bit longer shaft could really help.
