I see a bit of lifting in your swing. Your spine angle does seem rise up. All in all, looks pretty darn good.
So.....how many 3 putts? How many chips from INSIDE 20 yards did not get to INSIDE 8 feet? How many chunked chips? How many putts OVER 30 feet did you leave >8 feet from the hole (lag putting)? To me, those stats are key in lowering your handicap fast. You are going to miss greens, its how you do from around the green that makes you score well.
Shot 74 yesterday. 1/1 sand saves, 4/5 on <5 footers for par. If I didn't hit a drive into the water, I would have shot 72 (71 being par on this course). I saved myself 3-4 strokes on the average golfer for having good chipping and lagging skills. Work on it! |
Last week I had 3x 3 Putts. I've found I seem to leave the putts bloody short- Only making it halfway to the hole. Line is fine, and when I hit the bloody thing hard enough they're within a foot/in the hole each time.
Chipping/Pitching was a big problem- Chunking it, or hitting on top of the ball (The usual symptoms when one lifts their head). Probably getting a bit too wristy, so I've been out in the backyard having a practice.
Shot selection plays a big part. I'm hitting a SW/PW where I should really hit a 9I and run it up to the hole.
Can't seem to hit my Hybrids well at all either, anyone else have a problem with them?
I'm a big 3I and 4I fan (I love a well hit 4Iron), so I'll probably replace the Hybrids with conventional irons in the next week or so.
As I said to my missus, if I could cut the short game altogether, I'd be right!
Thanks for the advice and encouragment.
Cheers
