  1. Thats the way i grip a club, to my side, find it much easier to get into a natural position and my anatomical snuffbox always sits on top of the grip when I grip it like that. 👍
  2. From the back tees I’d aim just to the left of the right hand bunker hoping for either a slight draw or to stay straight and end up in the fat part of the fairway. I’d have a wedge left in. If I under carried it I’d end up in the bunker or just to the left of it which I wouldn’t be bothered about.
  3. Ya I've been working so hard on the wall drill and a backswing with no sway that I think it carried on to this drill. I'll definitely try it again.
  4. Like boogielicious I also used pipe insulation,
  5. Thanks for the detailed answer, really helpful. A 15 handicap like me has bigger fish to fry than enough flow, its less sway I need to worry about😂
  6. @iacas is the flow stuff you are working on lately a new idea, I noticed it in the practice plan and I just hadnt noticed it on the site before, not that golfers haven't always done it. I noticed on your vids a shift of the hips to the right at the start of your takeaway, have you always done that?
  7. Just from photos. The last time I uploaded a slow mo vid it worked, not sure why it didnt this time. Thanks for the advice btw
  8. Ya I have no idea why it didn’t stay in slow mo, I recorded it as n slow mo on my phone and I can watch it in slow mo. The vid is over a minute long. When I upload it to YouTube or Vimeo it goes back to regular speed.
  9. Hi guys, what, in your opinion starts the golf swing or takeaway. Is it a moveaway with the clubhead, is it the hips? Or do you start by turning the shoulders? Any teachers here, what do you recommend or is it different for everyone?
  10. @iacas I didn’t want to derail the other thread so I took a slow mo close up of me hitting a putt. I don’t have graph paper but I thought this looks level at least or slightly up. What do you think?
  11. Cool, I was worried that id be sacrificing speed control for better bead. I think i am still hitting on a slight upward angle but I could get some graph paper to make sure.
  12. @iacas I have a quick question regarding putting. I find to start the ball online I need to lean the putter shaft slightly forward, I already setup with the ball just ahead of centre, my question is does the forward shaft lean negate hitting the ball just ahead of the bottom of the pendulum?
  13. Day 15 I don’t have a yardstick so I just putted between two golf balls 3 feet away then I used another two golf balls to putt between. Only filmed the last drill but was practicing for at least 45 minutes and I suck 😂
  14. Just looking at my vid from my day 14 practice today and when I dont think about it I have a definite sway to the right with my hips, its surely why my biggest miss is a fat shot.
  15. Will do thanks. I'm so used to doing it the wrong way I need to remind myself to set up properly
  16. Day 13. Had to use a plastic kids ball against the back of the house. No hope of catching one 😂
  17. I quite like this drill, feels very natural to throw the club like that. Took a few swings after with both hands on the club and with that feeling I was generating a lot of speed. I don’t know what it would be like with a ball but it felt good.
  18. Ya I get you. I noticed practicing today that I like to start on an outward breath so maybe that would do. I definitely always do a very small forward press. Here is day 11
  19. I honestly think the message in every country about masks not helping was so as not to create a shortage for healthcare workers. Which is understandable
  20. I'd love to purchase but the budget for golf is not there at the moment, recently purchased the book so these will have to wait 😕
  21. We haven't been allowed golf for a few weeks and our lockdown has officially been extended to May 5th at the earliest as of yesterday. I fully expect it to be extended beyond that too. Really missing golf
  22. Keep at it mate, looks improved, you might want to maybe wrap that right index finger around the shaft a bit more. It should be a little seperated from the other fingers but not pointing down as much I think👍 Hi Steve you might want to watch Eriks video again, you are not starting with your club target side of the ball and not giving a little swing forward first. The same as I said to SteveH above in Eriks vid he does a little forward swing first, you dont appear to be doing that
