I've been Playing Golf for: 15 years. Well i started playing when i was 14/15 then more or less stopped when i was 16 & just played once a year for 10 years or so. Have been getting more and more into it again the last 2-3 years. Played ~20-30 times in 2012

My current handicap index or average score is: 14

My typical ball flight is: Draw right to left usually

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Big hook to the left is my most common miss & most detrimental to my game.

Just found this site recently & find it great. Interested to hear others opinions. Will try get another better video in next couple of days if the weather is a bit warmer

Chicken Wing.

Hip over Rotation , left knee protruding out too much.

Swing Plane is good , release is very awkward as you would agree try to change your pivot point and let your arms lose when releasing (letting them fold naturally)

Club should go to the left after the swing and not up.

Tips

If you want to stick with this swing , you have to anchor your weight upon your up swing onto your left leg then tuck in your hips like (sergio garcia PGA tour) so that your body can release the swing after that. If not you will be forcing your left arm to always tuck in making it unnaturally

cheers

    • Day 45 (27 Dec 25) - played at one of the sisters courses to my home course.  Solid session through the bag….of the 7 pars, 4 were up and down 1 putts (wedges were dialed in) from 6’ or less.  Off the tee - solid, irons were consistent even it a bit under on distances.  Course management was on - stayed the course even with a few offline recovery shots required…
    • Day 453 - 2025-12-27 Two things today for about 48 balls (I like to hit three or six balls at a time before taking a small break to pick them up): Right leg stays flexed a bit, internal rotation on the backswing. Kept my eyes looking at the ball and trusted that the backswing was fine.
    • Day 137 12-27 Worked on wider backswing today and tried to remain flowy. Recorded face on and down the line. Swing is looking better but I mentally felt off today, just frustrated. Tomorrow's a new day!
    • Day 8 - 2025-12-27 45 minutes of short game work at local muni, mostly putting work. Trying to get lots of reps in with consistent quality tempo.
    • I guess I'll stay at -16 for this year's challenge.  I never birdied holes 7, 13 (the 2 hardest holes) in 2025.  Also had a couple Eagle putts on the par 5's, but didn't convert either time.  Looking forward to 2026, though!
