  1. I would guess you tend to hit it on the lower side and curve it left to right, or hit big pulls Your guess is pretty accurate. I have been playing a draw, my misses are pull draws or particularly nasty pull hooks. However, recently I've been working on your advice and those of my pro and my shots have been going straighter. My trajectory with the mid to long irons is definitely low, along with my hybrid and 3W. I will be putting in a lot of time on this advice, and will upload some videos of my progress down the road. I could really use some height on my longer shots! Hit a 3H today that took a divot on the front of the green and kept on rolling 20 yards off the back of the green, what I thought was a good shot goes unrewarded...
  2. Thanks for the analysis Mike. I noticed comments concerning the tucked chin here before, so I will be working on fixing that since it is related to my shoulders not turning steep enough. How would say my swing is technically, what do I do well, and what do I do poorly? I know there's probably many many things I could work on, would that chin/shoulder issue be forefront? Thanks for your time and input.
  3. Hi all, I'm a new member here. I've been working hard on my swing all summer. I take lessons once a month from the pro at my golf course, but I'm interested in outside opinions from the pros here. I'm always tweaking my swing, for better or worse. Would like to hear some comments on what I've worked on. I'm about a 15 handicap aspiring to be a single digit in a year. Recently I've been working on my takeaway and shifting my weight to the front side at impact. I have four main swing thoughts at the moment. On the takeaway: out and up, and on the downswing: slide and rotate. But for the most part I try not to get to caught up in mechanical thoughts. Let me know what you think and how I could improve. *Apologies for the videos, the front view has the follow through cut off, I think I have the side view set up ok. If I have time over the next week I'd like to upload videos of my irons. 3W Front View 3W Side View
  4. I'm in the market for a lightweight stand bag. Preferably something that can easily hold 14 clubs. I've heard great things about Ping Hoofer and 4-Under, Sun Mountain Three-Five and Four-Five, and Titleist Ultra-lightweight. I'm also considering a Callaway Hyperlite 3.0 or 4.0. So, in your humble opinion, what is the best bag for walking out there?
  5. Another Charlottean here. Will play up until December 31st weather permitting! As Sam_Gill said all the fair weather golfers will be gone and I'll have the course to myself. So looking forward to winter for the first time.
  6. $200 dollars on various equipment, maybe another $200 in various range and course fees. Working on a golf course sure has its perks! :D
