Hey guys,
so I have been golfing for about 3 years now, and have constantly been inconsistent in my driving. My iron & putting game is good, but I have been having problems with the first shot.
Some things I have been noticing:
1.) There is always a big rut in the ground about 2 inches past where the tee is.
2.) The ball never seems to leave the ground, and only ever advances about 25-50 yards.
3.) I seem to be able to get 2-3 good drives each round.
4.) The last time I was out (last week) I noticed that when I bent the club at an upward angle facing the ball, I had an extremely good drive. Could it be that I am holding the club head downward?
I average about 20-30 over par each round, so I am by no means an experienced golfer, although I constantly get 1-2 putts and thats it per hole. As I am just joining a country club for the first time, I will be competing in tournaments this summer, and do not want to look like a complete fool when driving from the tee.
Any questions for me or advice would be greatly appreciated.
