Hey guys,
a couple of months ago i went down the rabbit hole of stack and tilt. and recently MORAD. Binge watched dochety, thehandstandgolfer, gorman golf etc.
5 months ago i was back home for the holidays and really went to work. 8 hours a day just grinding it. had the best swing I've ever had in my life and could control the ball on demand, even Tommy Fleetwood complemented it haha.
Then I overtrained, over did some feels went back home and got really bad. Really across the line, spinny hips, super shallow and flippy.
Luckily these last 4 weeks I've been just figuring out how to get back to that old swing and surpass it to a better one, and i finally am kind of back on track.
My biggest issue is my lower body, when i play bad the knees just kinda spin really hard and i cant slow them down to get them in sync with the rest of my body, they're better than before but thats a common occurring issue when i play bad.
These last 4-5 weeks I really worked hard on :
-tracing the baseline from p1-p4,
-i elongated my left thumb
-made sure the lead wrist doesn't get too cupped on the way back
-really focused on float loading in transition whilst making sure its on plane from p4-p6.
-p6 onwards just releasing the angles at the ball.
-I also am restricting the right knee a bit on the way back cause it started getting too extended too early.
-preloaded right side before takeaway.
as i said before, im struggling with lower body motions, how toshift 3 cogs in sequence etc. and the hips still want to fire hard and fast, ad the right foot gets up quick due to the spin. i also am staying too low without enough extension from p5 onwards. also randomly shanking it everythird swing, but i assume its from holding wrist angles too long and not extending up soon enough.
these are all my observations and my mostly my own self fixing with little input from coaches.
Anyways, sorry for the incoherent blabber. would really appreciate advice from you guys.
My short game is really solid with putting being my strength and if i shoot around par or under its because of my up and downs and putting.
My long game and ballstriking is what put me in trouble for the longest, but since Ive been grinding at it really hard its getting better. hoping to make driving my best skill.
right now just binge watching mike mcnarry swings on repeat and the ogrady long arc vid.
THE SWINGS IN SHORTS ARE THE ONES FROM 5 MONTHS AGO
PANTS FROM TODAY
Cheers!
