Thank for the reply. I spent a little extra time today hitting balls after class. I really just focused on getting the club coming from the inside and trying to make good contact. It went better than this morning. I’m really trying to focus on getting better with the driver and 3 wood off tee and shots from about 175 and in, so soft 6 down to my wedges. I feel with my driver length (108 mph driver swing speed) I won’t use my 5, 4 irons and 5 wood too much.

Same here, but I was just ok at other sports but my hand eye is pretty good. My ball striking shit through the roof when I found out that the swing bottoms out under the left armpit and I started looking at that spot instead of the ball. It works better for me

Thank you very much for this reply. I will spend some extra time on my full swing even if that means beating on practice balls in the yard or in front of a mirror!

Thanks for the reply. I do have a practice schedule that I try to follow in my 4 hours a week. It’s mostly short game work and 100 yards and in. And I play putting and chipping games to track progress, and I can tell that my short game is better now than it even was 10 years ago (I’m 32 years old) but I’m wondering how long it will take getting a lesson a month to really start getting a more consistent swing. I practice my swing quite a bit when I have some free time but today when I hit balls I felt like I took 2 steps back.

So I just started playing golf again a few months ago after 10 years off due to injury and trying other stuff. I was taking lessons and playing ok (around 85 but had a horrid short game) before gettin hurt. I’ve been getting lessons but I’m only able to really practice around 4 hours a week and have a routine that I’m using, but my question for the forum is: how long did it take before you started to see your game take a change for the better? I’m spending much more time on my short game this time around and only hit balls around once or twice a week, outside using the foam callaway balls in my back yard from time to time. I’m just wondering if maybe my expectations of getting better are too high right now and should just understand the grind to getting better. thanks all
