All in all I'm looking to improve my ball striking. Wouldn't mind gaining distance but that will come with better contact. Hoping next year to play in some local amateur tournaments and wouldn't mind shooting a decent number lol.

Your front foot pivots. I think it's because your weight is more on the heel. I have this problem as well, and my lead foot pivots at the end of my swing sometimes.

Hi cts,

sorry, I couldn't see the ball. I noticed you spin round the left heel through the hit by about 30°. I'm not one to over-analyse but its one thing that I find simplifies the swing as it reduces sway and over rotation of the hips and shoulders.

My miss is either a push or is heavy

Ok well that's excatly my problems, ill tell you what helps me with these things, standing too close to the ball and sliding my hips laterally on the backswing, which causes them too sway back on the downswing causing a push or not sliding and hitting it fat, when I turn in the backswing (as you do we'll in this video) it's a nice little draw. Just any hip slide completely f's me up. But that's just me

I find turning my feet out 5* right foot and 30* left foot helps

Yeah the spin out has always been my bad habit that I need to fix for good. I may try practicing with my left heal off the ground that way I can't spin on it. I go for a lesson tomorrow lets see what we can come up with.

I saw Ernie Els do it on one of the youtube videos. Not sure if it is a problem per say, as long as it happens after impact.

      Awesome, thank you very much. I ended up giving them a call and you are right. Got to try out some different clubs, the first suggestion was the Wilson Staff Launch Pad irons I believe, the hybrid irons. Personally I wasn't liking them all too much, however they were much better than the old '74 MacGregor blades I've been playing. Then I tried a couple others, I forget what the one was but the one I ended up liking the best was the Cobra Aerojet irons. Overall feel and performance was the best for me on these, I also preferred the appearance and sound of these. Bit the bullet.

      Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.

      Day 2:  I hit a bucket of balls this morning.  Not gonna lie, almost didn’t go since it was my first time going alone and it was a little intimidating.  I mostly hit with my driver (the last bit of balls was with my 7 iron).  The sun was in my face but I think the ones that had good contact with went the furthest yet (maybe 150 yards then a good roll?).  Once I switched to my 7, the first half of my balls were crap.  I’ve always hit my irons before my driver when practicing and done fine - does this make any difference or is it just because I’m so green?
