Right I have stuck a swing thread up *cringe* 

Don't worry about what people think of your first video.  Listen to the advice and then start working on improving. You will get advice about your first priority piece. Work on that and practice smart.

Unless you bang the first 300 yarder OB, with these shots: D1, I2, P3 = Birdie or an Eagle on a Par 5.

 I'd rather they throw $$.  

^ funny how perspective changes. I read that and said "ooph, wife would be pissed, do NOT need to be having that discussion with her every time I play golf. ". Money thrown would be awesome!

Just my two cents. While My handicap is no screaming hell I am seeing  improvement because I decided to stop doing what I was doing. Just hitting balls on the range and trying to full swing on the course.

It was suggested I Find out where the ball is going and fix my worst mistake, then move on to the next worst mistake.

We all have different body types and while I would love to be able to swing like (insert pros name here) after 40 years of driving and sitting at a desk for 40 hours a week, I can only swing like I can swing.

I want to lower my score, not fix my swing so I decided to figure out how to hit targets at the range. I started practicing my putting, more than 50 percent of the time. The rest of the time I target shoot. With more time on short clubs because thats what I use most. Its forcing me to figure out how to shoot quarter or half swings to hit that target.

Hit short shots back to the fairway when I f--- up driver. No more hero shots. 

Aim for the middle of the green rather than the sucker pin, two steps in behind a bunker.
