Okay guys, need a lil encouragement. I only started playing lasy July and have been getting lessons every 3-4 weeks. For the most part, I've been progressing. . . . up until a month ago! I've been trying to eliminate a sloce off the tee and in doing so, EVERYTHING is now horrible!! I went out today, hit range balls for an hour, hit very few shots clean. The course was deserted so I went out and played 12 holes, hit VERY few clean shots, back to range and couldn't BUY a good shot. Now I'm so confused! Any ideas????

In my Nike SasQuatch Staff Bag:
Driver: Callaway FT-IQ 9.5 Stiff
Irons: Ping G5 4-P
Wedges: Vokey Spin Milled 56*, Cleveland bent to 49*
Putter: Scotty Cameron California Monterey
Ball: Srizon Z-Star Yellow
Range: SkyCaddie 2.5


When I get in a rut, I take two weeks off. Don't watch it. Don't read it. Don't look at it.

MP series 51, 56, 60 Squareback No. 2. DT So/Lo


Goto the range, take your 6 iron and hit golf balls with your feet together. Try to stay balanced through out the swing and practice until you can strike the ball consistently. Once you are good to go, try taking your normal stance and hit some. Let me know how that goes!

I went through this a few weeks ago was frustrated for an entire week. Stay relaxed and loose. Concentrate on one thing about your swing and focus, mine is always relax the grip. If you're shanking or topping try the tee below the ball trick and focus on that as you swing....

This is where video can help. If you have no clue what you're doing when you're playing well, how can you ever hope to diagnose things when you're not?
