Mac the Hack

I was guilty of the 'seven iron only' on the driving range. Now I practice as I would play a bogey par 5 starting with driver then 3 wood, 6 iron, 52 or 56 wedge then finish with a chip, pitch or lob shot at 10-15 yards or so.

Nets are okay but doesn't show ball flight. Hitting dead centre a few metres away could in reality be slicing or hooking 60 yards right or left of the fairway.

You've either brought something into or omitted something from your usual swing that has had a negative impact. Could be something as simple as timing. This is usually the case of high handicappers though who haven't an ingrained swing.
