I was improving fast and really enjoying golf. A few months ago I started playing consistently in mid 90s and feeling very close to break 90. My weak point was the Driver.

Suddenly, about a month ago I began controlling the driver better and hitting it quite well... but... since then I cannot hit a iron at all. It seems to get worse every time I play :(

Most shots are terrible slice.

Is this a known bug?

In my Bag:

Big Bertha 460 11* Driver
Big Bertha 3 Wood
Staff Hybrid 21* Staff Hybrid 24* Big Bertha 08 5-SW Irons Lob Wedge Vokey Oil Can 60* Newport 2 Studio Style Putter Balls


I am one who has had similar problem and still facing it. There is a great chance u have an out to in swing, meaning on your backswing your pulling out wide and when coming down on the ball you are coming inward. Also watch your elbows and watch how much you elbow is bending. If those aren't the problem then it may be from pulling your body with your club causing you to follow it and make your swing pattern way off track.

I'm one who has had this problem for a long amount of time and have analyed it to the point where i almost have it solved. Btw if you are an aggressive ball hitter try and slow down your swing and it'll diminish the out and in or over elbow bending.

In my Black'n'Red :

Driver: R7 TP 460cc 10.5* Reax 65 stiff shaft
3 Wood: Tour Impact 15*
Irons: Tour Impact 3-PWWedges: Vokey Oil Can Spin Milled 54.10, Golfco Baron 58* SWPutter: Tracy II 35"Balls: Prov 1Age:16

    • I'd find a free fitting, take your clubs, and see what you can see. For example, we have a PXG fitter come to our academy every Tuesday, and he's great about sharing info about why he's having you hit a certain shaft or clubhead or something. And… if you don't see much of a change, skip it.
    • Day 1 (3 Apr 25) - Restarting the routine after a 4 day quick trip.  Got back in the groove today for some swings of the 6i and driver into the net -‘to just warm the muscles a little.  Wrapped up the day with grandson hitting 20-25 yd pitches in the backyard.  Love watching his swing and also his concept of course management, to hear him say he left himself in a good position to finish (good words from a soon to be 9 yr old)….
    • Day 185 - 2025-04-03 Had a good 2.5 hour session at Golf Evolution. Kinda glad it was still wet and windy out today as I wouldn't have gotten such a good session in if I played. Got up to 93 MPH (with a pause) on my 6I and 130 MPH ball speed (on a different slightly slower hit, a bit more de-lofted than I'll want eventually).
    • I'm highly probable for the entire weekend, thanks for doing the hard work to set it up.  I can't wait for more details.
    • I take 2nd, is a confirmation that you can eventually win your major and also is good material for having a laugh about it in the distant future.
