Ok so I just got a lesson at Golftec... It was good to be able to see my swing in ultra slow motion.

Conclusions:

Back swing was pretty good. Hip turn and shoulder turn back were both good. I'd like to get my hands a little higher.

Downswing... turn for both my shoulders and hips was NOT enough. My hand lag is good right until the club gets to my back leg and then it release just a hair too quickly.

My question is do you guys know of any solid drills for improving shoulder turn on the down swing with increased lag of the hands?

I've been working on making a better turn and all the stance corrections. Let me know what you guys think... does this look better from the first swing posted 2 weeks ago?

Your tempo looks solid.  Can you get some Caddy Views posted of the changes you've been working on?  Also, what are your misses?  What's your current stock shot?

Well to be honest, I have only been swinging in the house for the last 2 weeks trying to improve my swing. I was able to get out yesterday, although I only played four holes (I was teaching my wife how to golf so we were going slow.)

My miss prior to the changes was a weak right shot, due to sliding and other issues. So I made all the changes you guys recommended. Along with some drills to improve (increase) my hand lag.

Got out to the course and I was really drilling my short irons pretty much dead straight.

Driver was all over the place, which I attribute to not having swung a driver for about 2 weeks.

At the end of the day, I'm trying to get down to scratch from about a 7-8 handicap that I'm at now... so I'm working to master the 150 yard and in game. Looking to make any improvements necessary.

I'll add those caddy views tomorrow hopefully.

    • Day 9, May 13.  After work, I went to my practice room for a dozen balls (two sessions of a half dozen each).  I may do more later, but I wanted to make sure I posted here too.  Same priority as yesterday, with the arms lifting. 
    • Day 263 6-13 Setup alignment stick station for hands off body drill. Worked on wrist arch as well. Working on not hitting the stick 😀
    • Day 64 (13 May 26) - last practice of golf team for the school golf team….got to hit a few balls while working with the kids.  
    • Hi @RetiredOldMan!  I am glad to see you are still playing and having good scores.  I hope that when I am 79, I am not only able to play, but still able to produce as good scores as you have been doing.   I look forward to hearing more of your success and your opinion of the senior flex shafts.
    • Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)
