Pull/push + slice - returning to game after 5yrs out

[fairmorn308]

evening guys

I have finally returned to the game of golf after 5 yrs out and i dont have a clue why i stopped. i was playing off 4 handicap before i stopped neway

I have bought myself all brand new clubs to start again and tuesday just past ( 4 days ago ) i picked up my clubs and decided to go and play.

I played ok ish but i was either pulling or pushing my irons and woods and through in a slice in there aswell.

I played on wednesday and it was exact same so i decided to goto my local pro for a lesson to try cancel out any bad habits i was getting into after returning. He didnt work on the golf shot itself he worked on my posture and alignment etc.

Things he correct within lesson:

1) shoulders slightly open so squared them up
2) Left hand of grip wasnt far enough round to preform the V
3) My hands at address were slightly to high
4) Line that club head was starting on

I seemd to be hitting the ball good and solid but still performing the above shots infront of the pro. I was out today and was the same again I was hitting the ball alot more solid but do i keep working on this and put in the practice over the weekend or goback to the pro.

for example i would pull my iron then next time i aim a bit right and i end up slicing my next one or pushing it and visversa when i push it etc

any help would be great guys

Regards

Richie

I'm not a expert, but it sounds like to me you just need to get your swing back. 5 years is a long time, if you were a 4 HC then you obviously know how to make a good golf swing. Be patient you'll it will come back to you.

Check all your basic fundamentals....they are sometimes easy to overlook
