My Swing (BioGolfNebraska)

[BioGolfNebraska]

I've been Playing Golf for: a little over a year

My current handicap index or average score is: ~34 handicap, but I most often play 9 holes (2-3 per week) with average scores in the low to mid 50s.  My lowest 9 holes is a 46 on a par 36 (30.6/106) and can occasionally shoot as high as 65 on 9 (11.1% GIR, 24.62% FIR, 7.69% left, 40% right; I keep statistics in scorecard 2 to try and see what my problems are)

My typical ball flight is: irons go high and relatively straight, driver/hybrids can have a mild to strong fade if I try a full swing.  I can hit very straight shots if I only do a 1/4 backswing, but these have reduced distance (ie 130-140 yards for 5 hybrid).

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Strong fades and low distance (I can only hit my 9 iron ~105-110 yards, 8i 120, 7i 130,5hybrid ~150, 4hybrid ~160, 3hybrid ~170-200, driver ~200-220 (on a good one) as well as occasional fat/thin shots that I think are due to sometimes lifting my upper body on the backswing and either over- or under-compensating.  This is the reason for the low GIR, I am usually hitting my 3 hybrid for my approach, especially on par 4s and long par 3s.

I used to be able to hit around 150-160 with my 7iron before my lessons, but apparently had an ugly swing with no rotation and all my weight on my back foot.  I took a week of group lessons, and now my swing looks "prettier" (so I am told), but I have much less distance, and occasionally will come up fat/thin or have a massive fade or even a mean slice.  The slice almost exclusively occurs with the driver or 3 hybrid, because I play adams a7os clubs that do not allow a slice if you try.  I am new to the sandtrap, officially, but I have lurked the forums for months before officially joining.  I know there are a lot of very knowledgeable people on this forum, so I would be extremely appreciative if I could receive some feedback on my swing to try and help out on these problems (fade, distance, fat thin).  If you need any other information, let me know.

Thanks a lot!
