Just wanted to give you a quick update. I have been trying to put some of the things you have said into practice this last week. The main things i noticed were my grip, I was def gripping the club in the palm and not the fingers. The other thing was getting my body through the shot. I really feel now like I commit fully and turn fully through the shot and not just stop at the ball. I played today and broke 90...woohoo!! Only had one bad drive (which was a slice, much easier to recover from than a low hook!). I feel so much more confident on the tee. I am still working on some of the other points, but this was a great starting point for me. I drove 220 yards twice today..and they were straight! Thanks again guys.

Ole-Tom-Morris, Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I have understood a lot of what you have said, some of it I'm still trying to work out in my head!! I can see that the club shaft is pointing above my belt buckle and I do look very outstretched. I will go to the driving range and try to lower my arms a little. Should they still be straight or will lowering them make them bend slightly automatically? About the grip, I think I do grip it in my palms. I changed from a baseball grip to an interlocking grip about 2 months ago. I do find that sometimes i feel the club "move" at the top of my swing. I would love to be able to finish my swing fully, that is something I have been very aware of. When there is no ball in front of me my practice swing is a full back swing and follow through with the club finishing around my body. For some reason once I have hit the ball the swing just seems to stop! The "swoosh" of the club I think happens just before impact? I'm keen to try anything to improve, and at my handicap I have a lot of room to improve! Could I just ask you, from my video do you think I am "overswinging"? I'll post back once I have tried some of your suggestions, once again, thank you.

I've been Playing Golf for: 3 years My current handicap index or average score is: 21 My typical ball flight is: low The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: low hook I have been told that I overswing quite a lot and have a reverse pivot. I have reduced my handicap from 36 to 21 in nearly 3 years but would really like to come down more. I'm hoping someone with more knowledge than me can give me some tips from my swing please. Thank You x
