I've never had a lesson or had my swing looked at by anybody, I mean I've never had feedback on what I'm doing right and wrong in my swing. This is with my 7 iron. I appreciate any thoughts or advice yall can offer. I catch it thin more than I catch it fat, not sure if that is useful info. Thank yall. 

 

I've been Playing Golf for: 4 years

My current handicap index or average score is: 95
My typical ball flight is: slight fade
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: pullhook [

Please use better angles. Down the line should be down your toe line, not the target line. 

I think for now a face-on view would be more beneficial to look at.

It would be, because you're going to see the hips swaying well back and reverse axis tilt at the top, I think.

I'm just jealous that you can play golf in the middle of December.  How often are you practicing?

Im practicing at least 4 times a week 2 to 3 hours a session. Live in Texas, it's nice for golf.  It was 62 here today.

If it's 62 degrees in the middle of January, does that mean the winter is peak golf season there?  I'm imagining summers being 100+ degrees and not comfortable to be outside for 4+ hour stretches.

      Spend Less Time Over the Ball

      By JetFan1983 ·

      Patrick Cantlay's strokes gained from 2024: I wonder if he takes more time on approach shots given that was the worst part of his game last season. And then here are his 2023 stats: Much better ball striking season. I wonder if there are any differences in his times between these two seasons. I tend to think he's just slow in general, but it'd be interesting to see his time differences.

      Not sure, I think players have their own pace. Speith was always slow, regardless if he was in contention or not. Well, more so when he was in contention. It might be a push there on that question.

      Without knowing the study at all, this could be more of a reflection of who is tournament ready and who isn't. If you have a quick trigger, it could mean your swing is working really well. Fidgeting, lots of rehearsals, maybe means your swing's not functioning as well as you'd like it to and you need more time to feel it all out before you hit your shot.

      A study done by the European Tour shows spending less time over the ball produces better shots.  This makes sense. I can see where if you are over the ball a long time you lose the ability to make a more athletic swing. There is also the possibility of just overthinking the shot while over the wall as well and not being in the right headspace.

      Vintage PING Hoofer Lite - How to Adjust Straps?

      By Gregsfolly ·

      I recently picked up a vintage Ping Hoofer Lite carry bag.  I am not sure how old it is but estimate it is probably from around 2012 or so? I cannot figure out how to adjust the straps! I am going to try to attach a picture of the bag and will also describe it below. I cannot figure out how to adjust the straps in a way that makes the bag comfortable to carry.  The bag also seems to want to be more upright/ vertical than how you would normally carry a bag like this. I have tried to search this site and others on the web but almost all info is on the newer ping Hoofer bags which have quite a different design. The bag is pretty minimal in terms of pockets and has no handle on the top.  It has 2 backpack straps that are not connected to each other.  They are connected to the top of the bag and in the middle of the bag above the primary ball/ gear pocket. Any feedback appreciated, thanks for your help!
