Hi,

Obviously my post fell off so will add a line or two...

I've been playing "seriously" for ten months, had quite a few lessons and am desperate to improve my driving. Distance I'm happy enough with all things considered (probably about 230 yards carry if I'm honest) but all too often I'm slicing it badly right. Any help or comments would be appreciated!

FYI - This swing popped the ball up a bit too high and produced a late fade.

Thanks,

Josh

Hard to make any determinations with viewing a single video of just one swing.

The swing path on that shot appeared to be a tad outside of the ball just before impact.

Ball position could be too close, try moving away an inch.

Looked like the ball was struck near the heel slightly.

You appear to go through several motions during address.

Posture changes as you stand up, then reach, hand position changes.

When you finally start your swing, your setup looked like the club was set with the ball closer to the inside of the club.

Appears, your not relaxing to address the ball.

On the bright side, that swing had several positive motions.

Hey, Thanks! Already some really helpful comments there.

I know I stiffen up at address and get a bit 'lost' positionally. Interesting point on the swing path. I'll try moving away a tad as the heel hit and the ball position seem to tally up.

Also, will try and put another vid up.

Thanks again!

J
