Hello from the UK

[LeeRob23]

Hi all my name is Lee, i hope everyone had a good xmas and new year.

I stumbled across this site a couple of weeks ago when i was googling reviews of some of the Hank Haney videos that i have been watching.

I have been lurking and reading through the reviews and forums and was really impressed with the help discussions and info found here so decided to sign up and start to get involved

I have been playing golf very part time for the last 2 years in my spare time as well as playing football at weekends. I was lucky last October to be invited to go to Palm Springs in CA to play golf for a week and have definitely caught the golf bug now and am becoming a bit obsessed lol. I have quit football now to give me more time to practice and play and am constantly watching videos and tips found here.

I have struggled with a slice for a while and would always use a soft half swing to keep it straighter. But after reading a couple of threads here about how to stop slicing and learn to draw the ball i am now using a full or nearly full swing and hitting the ball a lot straighter and about 250 yards

I have managed to reduce my handicap down to about a 22 and my aim for this year is to keep reducing it as low as i can.
