  2. hitting the ball "more solidly" is always good advice. too bad you don't add up smash factor at the end of your round.
  3. very nice!! keep pluggin away. push fades are the worst. they're annoying, and they don't go anywhere. you're doing the right thing. feel is totally real! it may not feel good, but it should feel different. unfortunatly push fades happen while you try to work to the inside of the ball. you'll get it. don't forget to pay extra attention to tempo too, that should help to feel a nice timely release to the inside of the golf ball.
  4. hey there, how's it coming?
  5. i think so. and once you get that club set, all you have to do is turn. i think that a shoulder turn is very simple. i'm all about simple!
  6. Looking good for the most part! One thing i did notice on your backswing about hip high, your club is working a little inside (laid off). I know you said you're trying to get your hands inside the club; try to feel the underneath the club. The takeaway (to hip high) should mimic a simple wrist cock in the sense that by hip high, the club is set. From that simple "cock" position (which should have the club toe up parallel to your feet line target like ect.) all you do is turn back and through. You have a WONDERFUL turn. If you can set the club a little better, and make the same turn, I'd bet you'd be more consistent! if you freeze your slow down the line view at 11 seconds, you'll notice the shaft is laid off from your feet's line. if you can get that parallel, all you have to do is turn~ nice move
  7. One more thing! Sure a longer arc MAY give you more time to increase your clubhead speed, but at quite a cost. I find with myself, and 100 percent of players I meet that consistent contact is the best way to go, And that is certainly less difficult with a shorter swing. Keep it a notch short of parallel, and hit it in the middle of the face. You're doing great!
  8. Try to get your left hand more under the grip. Twist it, as you said. Try to imagine the logo of your glove pointing towards the target. Looking down i bet you can see all four knuckles on your left hand. Try to move it in a manor that you can only see one and a half to two knuckles. Grip changes are the worst, This, at first, will make you feel completely powerless. You'll probably end up to the right at first. With practice, and patience, you'll find more power as you use the large muscles to hit the golf ball (rotation). Restricting your hips on the backswing is good! In fact its desirable, Restrict the hips while turning your shoulders will help you store power! Use that tension created by the upper and lower body to unwind and explode and rotate through the ball.
  9. First of all, let me say you're doing a fine job for one year's dedication. Good posture. There's a few things I have noticed, I'd like to start with your set up. You look pretty tense, I'd bet your holding onto the club with a fairly tight grip as evidence by how inverted and close to your body your left elbow is. Nothing kills power like tension. Your grip is very firm (meaning too much of your left hand is on top of the grip at address). You make a very, very nice turn away from the ball. That invokes distance, with minimal effort. I'd suggest keeping your right knee flexed to create torque, as you certainly have the turn to do it. Flexing your back knee may feel like its restricting your turn when in fact it'll harness more stored energy from your turn. At the top club is shut (parallel to the ground result of firm grip), as the club face should be parallel to your left forearm at the top. Nice release. You come over the top, and with your grip, i'd venture to say you're doing all you can to keep the ball from going to the right. Start the downswing from the ground up. Again, I must commend your nice turn, and general move. The grip and keeping your right flexed should help you get to the ball from the inside and on the right plane, resulting in more consistent golf shots! You have a great turn, and a powerful release.
  10. keep them clean, brush them every single time you use them. failing that, when you clean them at home, rub them down with a little baby oil. that should slow down the metal's oxydizing tendencies. vokeys are great
