Thanks a million, those are some good suggestions. I will report back.

I have been there my friend. What I did was get a few lessons from a good instructor who advised me to only work on changing one thing at a time and he gave me a few drills which really helped with that change. It sounds like you're willing to put in the work, the hard part is figuring out what exactly to work on. Hang in there!

Hello all. Last year, my closest and favorite range got rid of their grass range, now it's mats-only. Now I'm finding that my iron play is deteriorating because I'm not used to hitting down on the ball and creating a divot. I'm now "afraid" to hit the ground because on mats it vibrates the hell out of the club and also flares up my shoulder injury. What to do? Thanks!

I play the Kirkland Signature neon yellow. It's basically a Pro V1 for the rest of us. I would consider switching to a comparable ball at a comparable price, but how do you beat 2 dozen for $35?

+1 for this question. What are your top drills, how to you evaluate your performance of those drills, and what changes do you make as a result? If I could eliminate 3-putts I'd shave 6-10 strokes. Need to spend more practice time on the green.

Today I hit 4 fairways at ~275 yrds each. So, I have found my problem: tension. Tension in the hands and forearms, which is caused by fear, which is caused by a lack of faith in my swing. So when I shut that down and swing loose and freely, life is good. The troubling thing with this is that I don't know specifically what is technically different about my swing under those conditions, which introduces some doubt, and I think that in pressure situations I'm still vulnerable. I need more knowledge of the physics at play to put my mind at ease and increase faith. I guess I'm a "feel" player.

I did indeed try this yesterday. Had 4 nice drives and 1 absolutely smashed. Love TST!

Can't you just say "elbows down can't touch the body. club can only contact the hands"?

If you're offering free help, I shall obtain them! :)

Suggestions / drills / shelve it?
