I've been Playing Golf for: 12 Years

My current handicap index or average score is:13

My typical ball flight is:Right to Left or Straight...and it tends to be a lower ball flight.

The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Thin iron shots.

I am just looking for some feedback on my swing...I am trying to figure out how I can start to compress the ball a little more and get some more distance with my irons.  Currently I hit my 9i 125, 8i 135 and 7i 145, etc.

Welcome to the forum. A face on video would help us see your impact position better. It could be something that is relatively easy to adjust.

I would check out this thread on posture. You have a good amount of lower back arch.

I would work on keeping your heady steady. You get a lot of vertical movement. That is primarily caused by you losing your posture. You stand up in the backswing.

I would work on getting less arch in the lower back. Then try to maintain the forward tilt so your head doesn't go so much up and down.

Also I would look at this thread on a centered pivot to help get the feel about being able to turn with a steady head.

Will also add this. Left side (left shoulder, left hip) has to bend down much longer on the backswing.

What you want to see from dtl. Shoulders and hips turning at a right angle to the address inclination.

    • So no joke, last evening post work nine must have been the craziest side I've ever played: Bogey, double, double, par, birdie, birdie, birdie, double, birdie. Two gimme birdies, one 15 footer and one bonus bomb from prolly 35 feet on no. 9. Full disclosure, it's a super easy course when greens are running at an 8 with easy welcoming pins. Still, a couple of firsts there. Driver freed me up starting the fourth hole. Anyway, driver notes: 1) anti left left hand grip. 2) no structural bind on hands/grip. 3) left shoulder HAS to get up to chin with humerus completely detached from chest and shoulder socket (feel) Big game tomorrow, aiming to break 80.

    • day 44 - slow deliberate swings into the net with a focus on weight shift and hand path. I might sneak out to the garage a few times through the day working on this but my hands are steering to blister lol
