I've been Playing Golf for: Started in February of 2012 after 20 years off

My current handicap index or average score is: 20.4 - 87 to 96

My typical ball flight is: mid to high

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: pull hook

Here's a down the line view. Like I said before, I just started back in February of this year after 20 years off. Love to hear what you guys think with your cool analyzing software. Anything to get better...

This next week I'm gonna take my camera to a different spot and take a few more shots. Hopefully someone has some helpful tips. Thanks

Do you feel you swing the same way on the golf course when results (and distance, etc.) matter?

It seems that your anxious for som tips or instruction, I would say to focus on your weight shift - shift to your right instep on the backswing and focus on a smooth transition to outside (left) of your left foot on the follow through.  Focus on balance at the finish as well.

I would like to say "yes", but I know I'm very inconsistent right now. I played last Friday and the only thing I really kept thinking was " I can make this shot". Shot a 39 on the front 9. Best I've ever scored on 9. I'm really hard on myself a lot of times and I'm beginning to think all the "grinding" mentally is causing over thinking therefore resulting in an inconsistent swing. I practice more than I play and when I play, I do my best to put into play what I practice. Even if I have to tell myself, "this is just the backyard" or something like that.

    • I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.
    • Day 151 1-11 flow work today. I've been doing all pause work, so Inwanted to get some rhythm going. Recorded.
    • a) No b) This MLR says: I doubt the MLR is going to affect their weekly league games, in other words.
    • So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands  
    • Original definition use to or still is how far offline you hit it. It might be better to think of it as consistency in retaining favorable launch conditions to optimize distance.   That heat map showed a gigantic 0-3% loss in ball speed. That is absurd. The true 100% sweet spot is tiny for all clubs. Good luck telling the difference if the sweet spot is under 3% in a sizable area. Especially considering variation in launch angle, spin, and outdoor weather.
