This past season has been my best season of golf got my handicap down to a 5 however with some questions people asking me are you one plane or two. I am starting to confuse myself and I have been messing up my swing with so much thinking. I was hoping people could state what I am and critique my swing since I have lots of pulls and pushes now. Plus some shanks. Lots of my ball marks are closer to hossel. I think I am a one plane but on my follow through its to high..

I want to start using a metronome for my full swing. I was wondering averages for individuals. I know with tour tempo there is 21-7 24-8 and 27-9. Does anyone know what that is on a metronome. Ex 100bpm 3/4 or 56 Bpm 4/4. I really want to practice on tempo so I don't over swing.

Recently my game has started to become a little less consistent. This season, I shot all mid to low 70's and now that it is towards the end, I am not playing as well. My pitch shots I am hitting thin or fat or even a shank--- so I am thinking I am pushing my hips to far forwards during the downswing. I am trying to figure it out, but I wanted some help and some thoughts. It really depends on the day, one day I shot a 68 and then the next day I shot a 77 and had 4 shanks with a full swing. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the input that's true I don't think I'm turning through the ball. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to practice this. I feel like I'm sliding my hips instead of turning through. Please let me know if any drills if possible thank you. Also, I don't feel as I my hands are rotating through the swing.

Thank you for the input, any other ideas?

Any ideas, sometimes I have a very strong pull as well. I can not seem to figure it out. I have always relied on my irons. Am I coming across the ball. In my second video I feel like my follow through is a straight path through the ball, as the first video I may be coming across the ball.

Here is the video, when I use to hit all my shots very crisp through the ball. Straight or little draw. Any ideas? Thanks

I use to be very consistent with my irons, Always withing 5 yards down to the 6 iron. However recently I have a lot of fades and push shots. I always use to have a tight little draw and I am confused on what I am doing. I have attached a video. Hopefully some of you can have an idea and help me.

I do not know what grip would be best to use. I have thought about switching to a bigger grip as well.

The past three rounds I have had 36 putts. I have shot a 75, 74, and a 75. As you can tell putting is not one of my strong suits. I would really like if someone told me a few things they did to get better. I do the circle drill, I do the line drill. I just have trouble keeping the putt straight. Sometimes I hit left and sometimes I hit right. I do not feel that I use my wrist, but I must because I can not keep it straight. Can a few people tell me what they did for drills to keep a straight putt. Setup posture, grip, ect. I am hoping within four weeks to have this improved tremendously. I putt for an hour each night. I just feel like after I miss a few I loose a ton of confidence and start adjusting everything. I have a see more putter.

Lately I have changed my swing the past few days. I have not been taking any divots like I use to do last year, so I started really focusing on that. However sometimes, my ball flight is lower, it feels like maybe I am to steep on my back swing or I am not following through properly. Any thoughts?

No what is a seemore putter, I feel like I do not rotate my forearms. That was just a suggestion someone said. I feel like when I do straight back straight thru I pull, however when I do arc putting, I hit it pretty well..

When I putt I look at my putter on my back stroke and the face is a little open, so I am curious how I am pulling it. Am I coming across the ball instead of thru. Any good drills to keep it on its line. Anyway I can put my hands to keep the putter from opening and closing. Someone said it might be the way I rotate my forearms. Is the ball to forward in my stance?

Hi everyone. I am having a serious problem with my putting lately and I am hoping some of you cured the same problem. Yesterday I shot a 79 with 40 putts. Pretty terrible. My stroke lately is a pull or I hit it left and it arch backs to the hole and goes in. Everything is left to right. I am a lefty. Anyone have any suggestions how I can practice this or work on this.

I have never had custom clubs, all my stuff is bought from ebay. However I am ready to get clubs fitted. Anyone have any preferences in these areas.

Very true ha ha.

This was the simulator I hit on, no wind or anything at a golf galaxy. Hence why I do not believe simulators are always right. Yes I am a long ball hitter, and I hit a few 300 in a round, however I am still curious about the people who say they hit the ball this far, but only hit 60 degree 60 yds.

I am just curious to such big differences between the wedges with everyone that hit their drives 270 yds plus. It ranges for a 60 degree 60 yds to 110 yds. How can this be? I know some people are de lofting their clubs with their hands forward that can gain distance and possibly flipping the wrist under the ball instead of compressing it so that could make it shorter, but any other suggestions? I go to simulators and they tell me I hit 300+ every drive, however on the course, I carry about 265-270 yds. It depends how much roll I get or if I am in the fairway to total distance. I hit my 60 on a full hard swing 100 yds. Just a normal swing 95 yds. I mean I see a golf coach and he says I am one of the longest hitter he sees however on here it looks like everyone here hits farther than me. All my distances are carry, depends if I hit it thin or I get enough height to stop it Driver carry- 265-270 3 hybrid- 230 4 iron- 215 5 iron- 200 6 iron- 185-190 7 iron- 170-175 8 iron- 160 9 iron- 150 pw- 140 52- 125-130 56- 110-115 60- 95-100

I am a lefty and he said my left hand grip was perfect, my right hand one was a little weak. So that actually helped it get a little better. Anything else?

Lately I have been hitting all fades and I use to be a draw player. The coach I saw tonight said its because on my downswing I am swinging directly at the ball instead of lagging the club and swinging around so the club face is staying open. Is there any good drills I can do to make this happen. Sometimes when I feel like I swing out I hit it straighter with a draw. Please help.

I went and putted today for two hours and I am going to focus a lot of my time on this now. However what I have noticed is, within 4ft my putt are perfectly straight. I had two tees set up and I was just trying to make sure to put through them. However the ball around 5 ft tends to go left or right. Is this because something is wrong on my follow through? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Also, how many of you have custom fit putters. I was thinking about doing this.

My putting is not my best at the moment I know it is still early in the year. However last week I shot a 78, this week I shot a 77. However I had 35 putts both weeks. I want to get it down to like 30. All my putts have an arc like they are being pulled. Are their any drills I can do or any suggestions. To have a straight line for a putt. I try straight back with my mallet, I try arc with my scotty. Please help me. thanks

Here is my swing, I have been hitting everything extra high, so I have moved the ball a little bit back in my stance instead of how I had it forward before. I am not cupping my wrist as much up at the top, and I am trying to push off my back foot more instead of letting the club bring me to a finish. Please take a look and let me know if any suggestions. Played my first round yesterday shot a 78. I was short on 6 greens by 5 yds. Again everything was going straight up and dropping straight down. Avg drive carry was 265ish carry, 7 iron was only 165yds, use to be 173yds. So that is why I am trying lower ball flight to make it penetrate, incase of wind instead of ballooning. Here I am in Michigan, just using a 6 irons they had at the course.

I went an played my first round today. I shot a 78. However my ball flight was not penetrating. It all was straight however hit a peak point and would just drop with back spin. I want a lower ball flight with bak spin. Any drills or help? I had all divots in front of the ball.

any drills on to fix this, in to out path?
