My Swing (loumuscato)

[loumuscato]

Hi!   Very new to golf here - experiencing tons of inconsistency. I seem to have WAY more trouble hitting with my driver than my irons - not necessarily with distance, just driving STRAIGHT. The link below is a video of 4 of my swings using a 9 - the first two I slice and the second two I think I hit pretty well. I was just wondering if anyone could point out the difference between the two bad swings and the two good ones, because I cannot.   [VIDEO]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHPVx_mN1_Q[/VIDEO]   If anyone can offer a few tips/videos that would be greatly appreciated.   Cheers, -Lou

perhaps not pivoting my right foot could be a root?

For sure.  Just need to involve the lower body much more.  I would focus on straightening the right leg on the backswing first, then making a full follow through.  I prefer to practice "leg and knee work" without a club first.

It also appears that on your 4th shot (which looks like the best to me), you are standing closer to the ball.
