I was having similar problems. Then I went and got some lessons about three weeks ago. I've only had three lessons so far, but I've improved it dramatically. I used to NEVER take a divot, sweep everything, and even my good shots were quite thin (but went high, and no one noticed they were thin)...

The problem? My weight was too much on my heels at address, and during my swing. Also contributing to it I was too far from the ball.

Maybe give these two things a try - worked for me.

Absolutely agree - as you can see from the amount of good and/or well intentioned advice posted here - what you really need is a trained pair of eyes watching your swing. Good luck

    • Wow, largest ever 36-hole lead at the Masters. Seems good. I don't really have much to add, but I'm having a great time nursing a cold by watching this tournament.  I doubt Rory fumbles this one, but you never know. As a fan, I hope he can close this out with two rounds to go.  I saw a funny comment somewhere where someone said Bryson should try to 3D print himself a green jacket. 
    • Day 234 4-10 Blending hip/chest rotation backswing work and wrist arch in downswing. Pause at the top and slower swing. Recorded and hit foam balls.
    • Day 2, April 10 2026.  After watching today's excellent Masters broadcast, I have hit 18 balls, one at a time, each after doing the pelvis limiting drill.  
    • Day 33 (10 Apr 26) - Played in the club Friday shootout with a slight twist as the course was setup for tomorrow’s local “Masters” one day tournament.  The pins were in some slippery places and the greens firm and bouncy.  Overall made for staying the process all the more important especially on the greens. 
    • Rory up by six - makes me wonder if the powers that be will adjust Augusta’s moving day setup to be uber tough or uber getable to get a few closer.
