Good luck! Let me know what else you have discovered to launch the ball higher.

hi, can you try weakening your right hand (assuming you are a right handed golfer) as in rotating your right hand counterclockwise? I used to hit a lot of pulls with a relatively low ball flight and during one of my weekly games, I adjusted my right hand and I am now getting a higher ball flight alongside with no dreaded pulls. You need to experiment with the amount of weakening to find the optimum results. I believe weakening the right hand will pretend shutting the clubface. I am just sharing what works for me which may or may not work for you. Good luck!

Amazing!!! How did you know its Singapore?

Hi Bob, Thanks. I did notice the level turn but wondering if there are drills that will correct it. Unfortunately no coach here teaches S&T.; I am from a fine country where they will fine you for every offences like littering, spitting, etc. It is a country that bans chewing gum and you can't even buy it. It is just a tiny dot on the world map and one will be caned for serious offences like vandalism, rape, molest, drug trafficking, etc. :)

I have been golfing for the past 12 years almost on a weekly basis and have gone through good and bad times. However, the past many months have been on a downhill mainly due to my swing. Over the years, I have not really engaged a coach and I am pretty much a self learned golfers by reading forums/magazine and watching golf channels. My current handicap stands at 13.2 and the course I usually play has a rating of 74.1/132 off the blue tees. I have come across S&T; a few years back but didn't quite believe in the method and have been sticking to a conventional swing. My last change was to try and adopt Ben Hogan swing and I must say I did well only for a game or two. I then decided to revisit S&T; about 3 weeks ago and have been trying out the swing methods. I have read the book, watched numerous videos and also practice it at the range. I must say it is not that easy to make the switch and I am still struggling. However, I realised that I have better contacts playing off mat and I have captured a video of my swing which hopefully can receive some comments. Somehow, I noticed that my left shoulder doesn't dip low enough which causes my shoulder to turn on a level plan. I also realised that my club head has gone way past parallel, my head moved a little to the right during my backswing and I am still having trouble with the finishing.
