You have a pretty nice swing. Is your miss left or right off the fairway?

I'd take a look at shortening the arm swing, going to help you hit it more solid, more often. Good drill for that is to make 3/4 swings with a tee or glove under each arm. For you it will probably feel like you're making 1/2 backswings. Will improve your pivot/arm sequencing.

My miss is sometimes a hook, my ball flight is draw. The Trackman shows approx. 10 degrees from in to out club path with 5-6 degrees open club. The swing speed is now between 119 and 122 mph.

 

I hit now only half swing of that with irons, I do not carry the 2 iron anymore.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
