The more I play golf the more I realize that being able to hit it where you want it is so much more important than being able to hit far.

I really want to straighten out my shot.

Do you need perfect form?

Do you take off some speed and focus more on hitting straight?

Is my line off?

Is it how you set up with your stance, ball position and grip?

Eric ( @iacas ac) have posted many videos on the site about the 5 keys of the golf swing.

Understanding the importance of swing path is essential to hitting shots at the projected target.

It's all of those things and more, unfortunately.

Also… the straighter hitters are often the longer hitters, too, and vice versa. Why? Because hitting a golf ball is a skill, and you tend to improve at BOTH things to a point.
