Finally talked to a pro today for a little 15 minute mini-lesson.

Got me on film and as soon as I saw my drive swing vs my iron swing I just shook my head.

The weight shift on my drive was so off balance it was ridiculous. I was loading up like a baseball swing (at least I still got it...) and basically at impact it was either perfectly timed or that ball was going in the woods.

Basically staying more squared on the ball will take off 20-30 yards (which is a trade off I'm DEFINITELY willing to give up) but keep the ball in the middle of the fairway.

On the launch monitor after the adjustments the ball had a nice little draw to it maybe 5-10 yards off line but nothing a quick turn of my R9 shaft wont fix. Can't wait for the spring.

Waiting out the 2 feet of snow that just dropped on the course....

Can you post the swing here? Staying over the ball shouldn't make you lose any yardage, it should make you more consistent.

      Has Scottie been losing his footing on shots today or is this something he does regularly?

      2026 Masters

      By Shindig · Posted

      How many times does Cameron Young get his big misses to kick out into the fairway this week? Burns at #2:  his second was a penalty (unplayable), punched out, missed his fourth long.   (I asked earlier and now I know, so I'm posting in case anyone else had the question)

      2026 Masters

      I was watching a Tiger highlight reel earlier today;  all his eagles at the Masters (all were at par-5s, except one at #14). That and this got me to thinking, what would a Sergio Garcia career highlight reel consist of?  Destroyed tee boxes, damaged tee markers, yelling at rules officials, and spitting in at least one cup. I didn't see Sam Burns's second through fourth shots at #2.  How did he end up off the green for his fifth?

      Would he be the first winner of the Masters to be banned from Augusta!  Also, come on Sergio, you are a 46 year old over the hill golfer. Go get your Saudi paycheck and chill. You are not that good anymore to get that upset. Go enjoy your "retirement" in LIV.

      I think this is what you are talking about him doing? Close enough? It could have changed a bit, or maybe he added an extra piece to it, so it might not look exactly the same as this.  Note, this is from 5 years ago, so it is something is just has to always do.
