does ball start left of target
did on driving range but not always now. Today I was mostly burning the ball down and to my left. Rarely hit a decent shot with the driver today, having some tiredness in my back from playing so much and driver is just breaking down real bad. I think I am subconsciouly trying to compensate.

goes high or low
all of the above,

hit ball thin/fat/flush

how far are you hitting wedge 6 iron, 4 iron, driver
I will just say under average on all of these unless I get a really exceptional connect. I hit a hybrid 4 about 150, just not hitting my driver at all to talk about distance, I am starting to lean more on 3 wood which I can probably averag 200, 6 iron just don't know, a good hit maybe 100 to 125.

I scored my lowest game today (94) but that was due mainly to playing good recovery but mostly to some great chips (the cupped wrist is great for pitch/chip shots) and putts. 2nd round shot 112 and shot 55 on my third front nine. I feel if I could get my driver in hand I could begin to shoot more consistently in the 90's. My driver is a TaylorMade 425 with the weights set at neutral. My clubs are new TaylorMades with a new MacGregor 3 wood and a Genex 3 hybrid. My hybrid 4 is a newTaylorMade Rescue with the weight technology set to neutral as well.

Played 54 yesterday and played 45 today with a 30 minute rain delay.
