Hi all! 

I was hoping that you guys could help me improve my driver swing and figure out what I am doing wrong! I have never struggled hitting my driver until recently! I have only been golfing a few years and have been using the "baseball grip" and decided to switch to an interlocking grip to help improve my game further. With this new grip I hit my irons further and straighter than ever but cannot hit my driver at all. I am for the most part topping the ball, hitting it off the toe, slicing it, or hooking it. I attached some files and videos from the Zepp app. I was hoping someone could give me drills and ways to improve! 

 

*on the Zepp picture the dark blue is going back and the light blue is coming back down. I can see that I somehow end up going below plane.

Here is a gif of me swinging! Should help you get an idea!

I think the people who can help you would need to see a video of your actual swing. Otherwise they are really going to be guessing. You might get more responses that way. I suggest you get a lesson. :-)

 

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I thought I posted one! Sorry! I attached a gif from the back that might help! I thought about getting lessons but haven't decided yet!

This. And....looks like you have zero hip turn. You’re swinging with just your arms.

    • Day 58: night putting session for about an hour. Started with lag putting and ended with putts inside 9’. I need to work on putts from 6-12’, but in a solid spot overall. 
    • Birdied a different #6 today (incidentally, also a par-5, but not the same one on which I previously birdied).  Here's the funny thing though:  it's the par-5 that caused me to post my "how do I avoid bogeys?" on par-5s recently.  So I guess I still haven't parred that hole.
    • Day 20, May 24.  Played 18 today, very poor ball driving.  One GIR, and it was a 4-wood from the rough.  Several other instances of hitting a green on a full swing (and at least one full swing motion -- a 50% UW) that wasn't for GIR.   Still shot an 87 and even had a birdie (chip-in).
    • Welcome to TST.  I spent a bit of time in the UK but I had to look up Wagon Wheels.  Don't think I ever saw them.  Had to Google to see.  Couple similar items in US but Google says they are different. 😁
    • Day 264 5-24 Worked on getting chest through and arms down infront of chest. Contact isn't great yet but on video looking better.
