I started playing golf about a year ago because a ligament injury to my right knee caused me to stop playing football (soccer). I used to mess about up the driving range prior to that but never really played properly. I started taking it seriously about Sep 2010 and safe to say i am hooked, constantly trying to get better and get that handicap down and playing whenever i can (it rains alot where i live)

I thought i'd post my swing on here to see if i can ask some questions and get some constructive criticism about it.

I shorted my backswing on my irons to get some control and hit better iron shots, originally i was lighting fast on the back swing with a huge over swing. It worked perfectly and now i hit lovely clean irons (not all the time obviously) but on filming this i noticed that my driver swing is also shorter. In fact its probably shorter than my irons. Is this bad? i hit my driver pretty well about 260'ish with a cut because i come a little bit over the top on the start of the downswing.

and like i said any constructive points would be grately appreciated.

tough to see from the camera angle, but IMHO you could definitely steepen your shoulder tilt.

    • Its way past time both tours  have  major  penalties for  slow  play. I  hate  it when they say" This group is  on the  clock". Big damn deal. Issue  penalties. Maybe Hull is a  bit too harsh but  its time a slew  of  2 stroke  penalties start  being  issued.     Charley Hull is fed up with slow play on the LPGA, so she offered a ‘ruthless’ solution “I’m quite ruthless, but I said, ‘Listen, if you get three bad timings, every time it’s a tee shot penalty; if you have three of them, you lose your Tour card instantly.’ I’m sure that would hurry a lot of people up, and they won’t want to lose their Tour card. That would kill the slow play, but they would never do that.” Who knows if that will work. But if it does not, maybe the PGA Tour should adopt Hull’s idea. The LPGA should, too, or at least assess penalty strokes for slow play. Five-hour rounds for a final group on Sunday is unacceptable and a quick way to lose interest and engagement from fans.

    • A hair under 190. It was pretty downhill, though, so I think we were playing between 180-185 to the pin. My 6 iron went 187 according to shot scope and ended up 18 feet away.
    • That's a tough pin on 14 at TR, had to make the hole play much longer, how far was that shot? I've only played that hole with a front pin.
    • No, but I spent (marginally) less time in the trees at Southern Pines, so it definitely played wider for me 😆. It definitely felt wider.
