I've been Playing Golf for: 18 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 10.4 (83)

My typical ball flight is: Straight to slight-fade

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: slight-fade; create a draw

[note: I used SwingPlane HD on my iPad to film. If anyone has any tips on creating better videos, please advise. Also, I couldn't figure out how to upload the slow motion view of the video ... if anyone knows how I will upload those so it's easier to see the swing. All comments, suggestions, etc are welcomed and thanked]

Thanks MVMAC!

I went to the range last night after a softball game (excuse the shorts) to get some more shots. Below are side and rear shots for Driver, 3 Wood and 6 I. All comments welcome and thanked.

A couple of things I noticed was that you were snatching the club head back to the inside way too fast.  You have to feel like your hands go in and your club head stays outside your hands.  Another feeling I use is that on the start of the back swing feel that your right hand stays on top of the left hand and that your left hand points to the ground to start the swing.

Also, if you want to hit more draws, have your shaft lean more towards the target at address, and try to replicate this at impact.  More shaft lean towards the target.

No, you have about 10 minutes after initially post to edit, long enough to be useful but not so long that someone can make a comment and "change history" by changing it later.

    • Day 323 - Opposite of yesterday, focusing more on taking a full backswing than anything else.
    • Day 139: worked on putting for a while. Did the two cups drill for bead. 
    • 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.
