I had to take a good two weeks off from swinging a club. 

After starting again following an 18 or so year hiatus, I'd gone from 140+ in my first round back to low 100s/high 90s. Everything was progressing well. 

Now I suddenly don't have a golf swing anymore. It's this awkward stiff slapping motion like I'm trying to hit a mosquito mid-flight with a golf club. Even when I do manage to make good contact, I've lost 20 yards off each club. 

I'm thinking this is a back to basics rebuild. Anyone know of any good videos that covers this?

    • I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family
    • First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
