FO view, sorry about the club twirling! it's just become a bad habit\nerves tick i use to help deal with pressure in tournaments of which i haven't played well in at all...I don't understand why even though i practice and play golf everyday (golf is pretty much my life) i don't fare well in tournaments :no:

I've been Playing Golf for: 5 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 handicap, average scores being between 70-80

My typical ball flight is: Push Draw

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is:Over draw and Push slice

DTL view,3\4 Cart View, my swing is based pretty much on the stack and tilt model with a few different "pieces" worked in...What are your guys thoughts on my swing? what should i work on? my miss hits are mostly over draws and push slices Ball flight wise, Thin contact more often than fat contact on miss hits.... any comments helpful!

Hi @goodguy96 here are a couple things I see

I think is where the overdraws are coming from, almost swinging out too much. Note the difference in where the hands are exiting.

Also wouldn't mind seeing the arm swing get a little shorter, think making some swings with tees in each armpit will help these two things. Let us know how it goes.

Thank you for your comment! i've been working on the tees under the armpits drill for the last two days, played 18 today, shot 72 so it wasn't terrible by all means but i noticed my start lines of the ball were straighter, and less massive over curves...i just think i have to learn to sync the arms and body together maintaining the pressure points to my torso....

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
