I agree that it is hard to give advice without seeing your swing, so I am going to let someone else do it for me. Click on this link http://news.bbc.co.uk/sportacademy/h...lf/default.stm and listen to what the pros tell you in the masterclasses and skills section. In particular, look at the 'Why does the ball do that?' section, which will explain why a ball hooks, slices, draws, fades, etc...

Golf is about skill, but a smooth tempo and good course management will help you build confidence.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers.
Lee.
