I've been Playing Golf for: 2 Years. Just wanting to get serious about getting better
My current handicap index or average score is: 95-110
My typical ball flight is: Low and right
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is:  Chunking my irons, Hitting wedges thin, Slicing driver.

I have been playing golf for about 2 years, mainly during the spring and summer when I am slow at work. I only play about once a week during the time I can. I feel like I don't have very much power in my swing and my contact on my irons is very inconsistent. I am just looking to get more consistent on my contact and then worry about the other stuff as I progress. Thanks for any help from you guys.

I have been working on keeping my left arm straight through the swing, as well as not over swinging on my backswing. Still having trouble getting my weight forward and creating lag. I went to the range today and tried to focus on the feeling of keeping my right arm straight and it seemed to help out a lot. Any advice or drills I should focus on are greatly appreciated.

I signed up for an Evolvr account and have gotten 2 lessons so far. The first one was to transfer my weight forward and the second was to get my shoulder rotating more on the backswing. He also wanted me to work taking the club back more to the inside and more in to out on the downswing. I just submitted these 2 videos to evolvr this afternoon.

    • Day 50 - 2024-11-19 Hit about 20 balls focusing mostly on the backswing. That's going to be my November and December.
    • They need to do something to speed  up play. They could randomly  time  players. One  idea would  be  if a group gets  out  of  position they are disqualified. If its a group of  3 and  its  1 player playing like  molasses i can imagine an exciting interaction, lol
    • I agree with @dennyjones, a suspension of some meaningful duration would be better than getting bounced from the Tour. They might consider experimenting each week. It might generate a bit of interest. I like the idea of a visible shot clock. If a player and their caddy can’t decide on a strategy and pull the trigger in XX seconds (30? 45? 60?), one stroke penalty. Give each player 2 resets a round. The clock starts when the last player to hit’s ball stops moving. Other pace ideas could be used every couple events until a consensus is reached to adopt or ditch an idea.
