I started to get into golf recently and bought a set of used clubs from a good friend, i was at the driving range for the first time in my life and hitting a golf ball for the first time in my life.

The guy next to me pointed out a few things i was doing wrong witch i was greatful for he had similar problems as me, one is i slice pretty bad and i belive this is do to my swing every time i swing i feel like im lifting up my torso and i feel myself rolling back on my heels where my toes life off the turf, i know this is probably hard to tell me what im doing wrong without seeing it but is there a tip anyone can tell me to try today on the range?

    • Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly. 
    • Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.  
    • Day 143 1-2 Arch wrist in downswing. Having a SLIGHT cup in the lead wrist at the top now. Only paused swings with some rehearsals before swinging at ball.  Used foam ball. 
    • Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
