I was curious to see if anyone else on this forum has faced the same issues that I've been facing with this season. Every once in a while my grip on all of my irons feels a bit off at address. I get so uncomfortable that I start to focus too much on having a comfortable grip that it creeps into my shots and shot shape. I start wondering if its my glove, my ball position, or set-up. All mental blocks that suck my confidence meter to zero at the range or on course.

It's so baffling to me b/c this comes up once a week for the past 2 months and it bugs the hell out of me. Any thoughts as to why this might be happening? This has never happened to me in the past.

FYI, I use a neutral, inter-locking grip and this all started happening after a recent grip replacement about 2 months ago. THANKS!

    • Day 3, April 11, after the Masters and before dinner, I had time (quite a bit of time, actually) to hit about two dozen practice balls, complete with the pelvis limiting drill.  As with the past two days, I would do the drill for pelvis limiting, then take slow rehearsals of the backswing, checking positions in a mirror, and then reset and hit.  These were all indoors, off a mat, into a net, primarily with a 6-iron, although a few were with a 9-iron.
    • Day 234 4-11 Wrist arching and hips/chest in backswing. Really trying to hammer in the wrist arch, its such a  better swing when I do it correctly, its not in muscle memory yet. 
    • Day 557 - 2026-04-11 Got some work in after lessons. Backswing has to be shorter. Slightly cupped.
    • You know, I haven't followed much professional golf the past few years, and he wasn't the star of today's show, but I think I like this Sam Burns fellow.  I hope he plays well tomorrow.  
    • All of these missed fairways and the miraculous escapes followed by the seemingly reliable miracles suddenly stopping reminds me of another former Masters champion whose luck ran out on the 72nd hole of a major twenty years ago.
