I've been Playing Golf for: 10 ish years but only seriously for 4-5 months

My current handicap index or average score is: 13-20 handicap

My typical ball flight is: Fade

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Pull on my driver and slice with everything

Sorry, youtube didn't take the video and vimeo won't send me a confirmation email. Will hopefully get a video of me driving the ball soon but this is just a recap from my lesson today.

Haven't posted in here for a while but have had 2 lessons since last time and I am hitting the ball really well. I changed my swing up a lot but I started to come over the top and to fix my slice I have been doing the loop swing. Will probably stick with the loop swing for another week or so and then go back to a real swing.

Anyone ever had to resort to a loop swing to fix over an over the top/inside swing and how did it work out?

If your problem is loading the club low and in, resulting in a "shallow" backswing, this is a good way to start.

    • 12 July 25 - Got invited to a Sat morning round with some friends.  Was a decent round - sort of a pre-tournament round for the 1st of Aug.  Best play of the day - lost ball off the tee on 7.  Took the drop, hit 3rd onto the green, missed the par putt by 3 inches short - middle of cup.  Was a good bogie recovery.  Learned a valuable lesson - the wedge is your friend, the collars on the greens are just long enough that they kill the putter (unless you hammer it).  Back to more of those nice chip and roll drills. &nbsp
    • Day 357: played 27 holes. +6 total - pretty pleased. Only negative was missing the hole 3 times from within 4 feet…
    • Day 1: 7/12/25 exactly 60 minutes of chipping practice. Unlikely to be able to practice very much but sure had a blast today!
    • Didn't score better, but made better swings on the course today. I found a bit of success on range pre-round, just hitting like what felt like 60-70% shots. It was more right elbow and right wrist angles in the downswing. Driver took a bit to work out the giant toe push draws I was hitting.
    • Played in the first round of Shawnee Hills  course tournament. went 42+46. Just lost energy on the back nine.  Lots of pars and way too many big scores. Course has a lot of areas to lose a golf ball. This is the adjusted score.  I had to return to the tee twice. The first the guy I played with didn’t tell me my ball bounced into the trees behind the green. 😡 the 2nd one I hit a decent draw over the corner of a slight dog leg left. I didn’t know 15-20 yards from the fairways was nasty weeds. I also 4 putted and 3 putted a few times. I flubbed like two chips. Too long of backswing.  I was happy with my ball striking. Probably B-. Found a bit of something on the range before the round. I’m starting to actually feel my right arm position better with what I am working on. I striped some irons today.
