Hello all!

Here are 2 videos of my from the side (I will try and take some better ones soon as well). I know that I have a pretty bad sway with my hips and not really sure how to go about correcting it. Any input is appreciated and will give me some feed back on what to fix and what else to work on. Right now my averaging in the mid 80's and my goal for 2012 is to break into the 70's (I know a lot of this will be depending on my short game withing 100 yards which I am working on as well)

So...Is my swing that bad lol? Sorry for the typo's and missing words in my first post, I was at work and didn't proof read before I posted. I'm almost done my masters degree, you would think my spelling and grammar would be up to par haha.

You'll fix the swaying by doing some reading and some reading. Here are a few relevant threads to get you started.

Eventually you'll want to slide your hips, but forward and on the downswing: http://thesandtrap.com/t/29616/the-biggest-secret-slide-your-hips

      Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.

      Which Irons for Next Season

      By Typhoon92 ·

      It’s winter here and time hitting at my indoor place.  This year I bought and sold a few sets so I didn’t settle in on anything. For this coming season, starting now I have a choice to make.  What set would you guys use? 1.  Nike Vapor Pro irons - They are like new, hit them some last year before I had to demo other sets.  I love them, original grips, barely used so I’m almost not wanting to use them to keep their value up.  Standard LLL and standard grips. 2. Taylormade P7TW irons - Still in the box.  Got them over a year ago but had too much to hit, never used them.  Have used a set in the past and loved them.  Ended up with my own set custom fit to me -1/4”, 1 degree flat midsize grips.  These are probably not as valuable because they are still available and they are fit to me. I hate to put the Nikes away but it makes more sense to save them than the TW’s…. I dunno….

      Day 215 (3 Dec 24) - Another very chilly day - opted to work on easy pitches in the backyard. Worked thru the irons and wedges - focused on foot position and tempo.
