Hello All,

I just recently joined this site, and I know i have not been active on the site with reply's. Frankly because i know nothing about the swing and golf in general. Picked up a golfclub for the first time in late July, and below is my swing. I am eager to learn, and hopefully i will be able to join in on discussions as time and experience goes by.

Im working on a lot of things, specially not stretching right knee and keeping right fott down on downswing. Having issues on the course with thin and fat shots, but when i hit it well it has a draw ball flight.

Hoping someone here can point me in the right direction :)

Can you elaborate on the bold, and the reasons why you're trying to do that?

After that, I'd look at some Key #2 videos at http://purestrike5sk.com/videos.php .

Thank you for your reply,

When I stretch or straighten my right knee in my backswing, I have a tendency to tilt too my left and my backswing gets to long.

On keeping my right knee down through my downswing, this is something that I have seen many "experts" on youtube talk about.

I am not sure if this is correct, but after watching pros and good golfers, they all seem to roll the right foot, instead of being on the toes at hip level like I am.

I feel that keeping my right foot down limits power, but it also gives me a feeling of stability and better feel when i strike the ball.

I am having major issues with hitting push shots lately. I wonder if I am having a release issue.

Anyway, thank you for your tip on key 2
