Tips for squaring the club face
Chipster replied to Chipster's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I played today, tried to implement a couple of changes into my swing, particularly with the driver, these were to keep my arms straighter on the backswing to give me more width, turn my shoulders more and try not to flip at the ball, it gave me more length from the driver off the tee but I’m still pushing out to the right and I don’t seem able to allow for it either. Unfortunately this caused me to lose my rythym with my go to club which is the 4i, which meant I wasn’t striking my low to mid irons very well at all, strangely though I scored quite well today because my pitching was really good -
I was looking for an idea of what it should be, whether it should feel equal or not and surely the pressure that is recorded is weight difference between the 2 feet? I can’t imagine that you’d find 2 players with the same readings either, so unless I knew what I should be doing then it wouldn’t be that helpful.

Hi all I have only recently joined the forum but I have found some fantastic information on here from threads and videos.

Thanks Ray, that’s a good tip, I’ll try that next time I’m at the range -

Thanks for all of the advice, I have paid another visit to the driving range and experimented a little, I think I may have been going back without enough shoulder turn so I made a point of turning more and keeping my arms straighter on the start of my backswing to try and give me more width and the results were better, I still have it in me to push one out right, I’ll try and take some decent video footage of my swing and put it up on site at some point. -

Hi all i have recently come back to playing golf after a break and just wondered if anyone could give me a few tips on a couple of problems that I have. i am right handed, I have always had a tendency to push the ball out right and sometimes slice with woods, I say sometimes because I can hit a perfectly straight shot with woods but more often than not it goes right and if I try and accommodate the push it seems to accentuate the problem, I can hit my irons fine, I have a set of Callaway Razr X Tour irons which don’t have much offset and I’m really happy with them, my go to club is a
