Hello All, Thank you in advance for your help. I have only been playing golf for 2 years but have fallen in love with the game and I strive to get better. I know with the wealth of knowledge on this forum someone will be able to provide insight on how to get better. (video was done on the 15th? hole at Belle Terre Country Club in Laplace Louisiana.) Let me know if I need to upload any additional videos. Thank you again for your help! -Amessina

I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years
My current handicap index or average score is: 95-100
My typical ball flight is: all over the place
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: slice (starts straight then turns right)

Videos:

Hi @Amessina welcome to TST.

One down the line (DTL) swing is not enough to give you a complete assessment. I can only offer a few thoughts with a DTL swing. Ideally I can also get a face on version because I suspect some things we can improve in your backswing but need to see it from the front view to confirm it. 

That said I recommend 2 threads for you. One is about slicing. Best thing you can do is understand why you slice. This thread is excellent for that. 

Second one is a video to help to keep your right shoulder in its proper place on the backswing. You let your right arm get behind you and you need to fix that as well.

      Day 7 - Mirror work, trying to hit that PGA-logo position in my follow through. Mirror really helped, need to film soon.

      First - glad to see these popping up again. Now to the topic at hand - I would rather be option 1.  If I know how far it's going (I mean a yard or two) I can always play to the wider parts of the fairway and/or the green and still do reasonably well.  Now if I could just really hit the "number" that well.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 25) - Long day of driving to dr appt with son.  Thankfully got in one of my fave putting drills (two ball side by side) - the goal to have both balls come off the putter face equally by having them come off the putter face as close to the same time as possible.  First few rolls - the toe was leading the way as that ball flew off the face.  By the end of the drill both balls were basically equal off the face, rolling to within a couple of inches of each other.  Nice drill of focusing on squaring the face.  BTW - I was using the old Odyssey DF992.

      Day 161 - 2025-03-10 Got a decent, long session in. Focused mostly on the backswing feels, and moved on toward the end of the four hours (not all hitting balls, I installed a motion sensing light switch in there too, and worked with a student over FaceTime for a bit) on the downswing feel.
