I played a 4some select shot this weekend. Which i was the D player and my drives totally sucked. (topped, slice) My short game was decent and really I think just needs more playing. I was nearly as good as them 130 in. The A golfer said I need to flatten my drive swing out said I was swinging like I do my irons. I know its hard to give advice but thought perhaps this is a common error. The good news we finished 7 under 3rd best out of 12 teams. Thanks for any advice. In a couple weeks me and the A player is going to the driving range to work on my swing but in the currecnt time does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks

get a lesson from a PGA pro.

your driver swing will normally be somewhat flatter than your iron swings, due to the length of the club. shorter clubs will usually lead to a more upright swing if your swing is consistent.

I will actually going to meet a local PGA pro at the Bristol Race in August and will be playing his course the weekend before. Perhaps he would be a sufficent teacher.

    • Day 555 - 2026-04-09 Played 17 holes (we skipped 6 to pass a group letting us through). Hit more good shots than I was expecting. 😄 
    • Day 233 4-9 flow drill while focusing on better hip/chest rotation. Used mirror. 
    • Comment:  Huh, I practiced regularly until 1/31, got busy in Feb-Mar (as I knew I would), and got reinspired today.  I have done some intermittent practice in the past two months, but let's get back on the daily practice wagon. Day 1, April 9 2026.  I worked on some pelvis turn limiting drills, doing one for several iterations before context switching to hit a few balls slowly (trying to retain that feeling), and repeating.
    • I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.
    • Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast.
