We finally got some decent weather so I was able to get a evolvr video in. Ive been working on getting my hands ahead of the ball at impact also maintaing Keys 1 & 2.  I hit the ball really good for about half of the range session then all of the sudden I started hitting it off the hosel :censored: .  I got these vids in when I was hitting the ball solid.  Heading in the right direction though I can deal with the hosel shots as long as Im making progress.


The swing on the right is from october.

Yesterday I was able to get out and play 18 at a nice private course in the area. I was very happy with my tee shots and my short game around the greens. I ended up shooting an 84 which all things being considered is probably my best round yet. I definitely noticed I need to work on my long irons. Three of the par 3's are long none of which I had even a nGIR let alone a gir. I'm going to really start focusing on my 7,6,5, & 4 irons. I don't carry a 4 on the course but I'm going to start taking it to the range with me. Evolvr has definitely helped me a lot now I just have to improve my approach shots.

This is what Im trying to fix and I feel like its why I have a problem with making consistent contact with my long irons.


I have a drill for this from evolvr but I haven't been able to get it when I take a full swing so I haven't sent in a new video in a while.  I was just wondering if anyone has a feel I should have to keep my head from raising up at or just before impact.

My thought is maybe feel like your dropping your head???

I was able to get out this weekend and play 18. This was my 9th round using game golf and it's shown me a glaring weakness in my game. My average score on par 3's is +1.1. That doesn't seem that bad but I've played 36 on a short course which has 2 short 3's. One of them is almost a guaranteed par unless you hit a terrible shot. The pattern I've noticed is I'm missing short of almost all of the par 3's. My last round I was +7 on the four par 3's and +10 on the other 14 holes. My irons need a lot of work.
