My Swing (N8theGr8_1988)

[N8theGr8_1988]

 I've been Playing Golf for: a week

My current handicap index or average score is: not sure?
My typical ball flight is: fairly straight with some leftward hooking on average. 1/5 shots are mis-hits when I try to go full on my backswing to swing "big."
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: inconsistent striking with full backswing. 

Disclaimer: I'm brand spanking new to golf and have been doing a little reading along with watching some instructional vids online.

Getting a good pivot down will be one of the first things you may want to do. It's Key #1 in 5 Simple Keys®.

Thanks for the resources! I can definitely point out a major problem to correct after learning (and seeing) what I'm doing wrong. As I improve on my mechanics I'll try to post updated videos.

Studied the vids and took the instructions, and while I may not be hitting a ton further, consistently better ball striking is a MAJOR indicator that I'm developing a better, more consistent swing. More videos to come soon.

Welcome to the Sandtrap! First order of business, I must first tell you that you are standing on the wrong side of the ball...

That being said I recommend getting these things in order:

Grip

 

Posture
