I've been Playing Golf for: 3 years (on and off due to teenage years)
My current handicap index or average score is: average score 98
My typical ball flight is: straight/draw
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: a wild shot. When I don't hit the ball proper and hook or top the ball, occasionally getting a slice.

Forgot to get the Video but I was hitting a few slices yesterday which isn't normal for me, had one straight drive for the whole round. My irons were pretty good except a few times I didn't get under the ball. Scored 101. Still had a couple weird shots that just went the wrong way. Need to work on my aiming I think.

Suggestions:

Lift our head up.  On your backswing, your left shoulder is pushing your head backwards, off the ball.

Slow down a bit on your backswing.

Always remember, the same country that invented golf and called it a game, invented bag pipes and called it music.

I'll have to try this when I play next. Never even noticed I did that.

I only noticed it because I was doing the same thing and my pro told me about it.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
