I've been Playing Golf for: 6 yrs
My current handicap index or average score is: Don't have a handicap, but generally shoot between 80-90
My typical ball flight is: Typically reliably straight from wedges through 8 iron. Starting at 7 iron and longer, I feel my swing is a little too steep to be reliable. Often hook my 21* hybrid.  Driver misses are generally pushed to the right.
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Fat iron shots, driver push/slices.

The big thing I see when watching my video is that I'm a little across the line at the top and then steep coming down - would love to shallow this out. Could probably shorten the swing a little too!

Thanks in advance for the help! I'm committing a lot of time the next few months to make improvements to my swing and work on it daily.

    • Day 11: Worked on putting with the metronome
    • I added to total today by hopping it in on the first hole for an eagle. A short par 4, I hit 4 wood to 110. With a little breeze in my face I hit a 50 degree gap wedge to 2 feet and watched it hop into the hole for an eagle 2! 
    • Sounds good. Text me if you have any questions. You have a good setup, too, and so long as you can get good camera angles… you should be good. https://skillest.com/@iacas
    • Day 14 (September 18).  Morning practice, despite questionable weather (it's raining).   Worked on chipping at first, including run-ups with UW and PW;  I've noticed lately some of my near-GIRs are missing forward, with nothing but grass ahead of me, but 20-30 yards to the pin.  After a few misadventures putting those lately, I wanted to at least get a feeling for what a 30-yard chip shot that doesn't have the variance of my quarter lob wedge would feel like.  I still think "putt when you can putt" is right, but... I am less sure I have a 30 yard putt in me.  Range time also, of course, same routine as the past week or so (drill, 3-4 slow shots, etc).   Did not get to the putting green as it was starting to come down a bit more. Darn, it really is raining.  And I thought today would be a perfect day to play, seeing as how it's 9-18 and all.
    • I'm in the same boat.  I think the last team event I got really excited for was the 2019 Presidents' Cup.  When I first got into golf, the Ryder Cup was an event (one among many) I used to plan my schedule around to make sure I'm able to watch it.   I'm not sure I realized how close it was until I saw this thread pop up.
