What Are You Working On?

[TourSpoon]

Balance, impact, tempo...

[cshutchinson]

I am currently working on achieving an IN to OUT swing path.

[SwissTJS]

I'm a lefty and I recently started to hook and over draw the ball. I thought my grip was too strong but recently I realised that my hands were turning over. My left hand was the problem. In one of the forums a suggestion was to feel the left hand under at impact. If anyone out there is experiencing similar I strongly advise you do as I do and adhere to the tip, it worked for me. I've worked on this for a week or two and my confidence is back. I play off 4 and last Saturday shot 75 in a club tournament. I'm over 60 and came 2nd against a much younger crowd. Just something simple is usually all it takes....it's just finding it. Best wishes, Lefty

I'm working on keeping my left wrist (I'm right handed) flat throughout the backswing. Seems I have a tendency to cup the wrist which opens the clubface. I get push or push/slice shots that way.

A flat wrist on the other hand combined with a strong grip gives me the desired draw.

+1 on the in to out swing path. Therefore also working on compensating for the extra distance I'm getting. Roughly 1 club.

[Kieran123]

Better contact, hit a few too many slightly thin on the toe last time out that faded right

[alansmithdc]

Ringing the bell at the start of the downswing. Also getting to and maintaining the cupped left wrist at the top of the swing per Hogan's Life Magazine secret article.

Thursday I was working on my three swings with all of my wedges, Friday I worked on pitching, chipping, and putting, and today I'll be working on maintaining the proper swing plane as I want to switch to a one-plane swing. I have a feeling that today's practice will make for a repeat of Thursday's practice.

[Rugger]

Better contact throughout the round. The farther I get into the round, the worse my iron play gets.

[CWHolland]

accuracy within a 100 yards. Been working on better position on the green. Also had worked on putting. Changed putters, went from standard putter to a belly putter. This has really seemed to work for me.

[Platypus]

I'm working on fitness and full swing accuracy. I believe these two go hand in hand. My short game and putting are relatively solid and I'm losing all my strokes to penalties and counter-productive long shots. I have a nasty case of the shanks too. The good news is I hosel-rocketed a hole-in one the other day.

[Stretch]

Today I hit 500 chip shots. About five of them were quite decent.

[bkoguy07]

Driver and Hybrids.

[Billiam7]

My anti-slice drive.. I need to post my video and get some help.

[Stretch]

Pitch shots around the green. Key thoughts: left wrist cup, hit with the pivot.

[Stretch]

Two hours hitting pitches from 20 to 60 yards. Holed out perfectly from 40 yards or so just as it started to rain. Took that as a signal to quit on a high note.

[Chris71]

Right now, I am working on getting rid of my slice with the driver. Reading Ben's book, and going to the range every chance I get.

[dbuck]

Working on transitioning back to the blades and persimmon for a while. Had the cavity backs and titanium in the bag for "scramble season" and got in a habit of overswinging. Played (or tried to) with the old sticks and couldn't find a rhythm. Short irons were actually pretty good but everything else was UUGGly.
