Re: Ball over heels

Thanks for the advice, guys. Sorry if my way of expressing my problem is somewhat confusing. It is perhaps a reflection of my actual confusion.

I tried the knee flex bit yesterday at the Army course here in Makati City. I wanted to see how I would do on various fairway shots, so I only hit a five iron off the tee, leaving me lots of second shot wiggle room for the approach. The knees flexing more worked, or I so I think, with my short irons. Aside from pulling a few right (I’m a lefty), I got good connection and nice loft to the green, even on a couple of tricky lies.

My longer irons were not as fluid. I hit my four and five irons using this method, but I still seemed to hit behind the ball to varying degrees. The good news is that this worked well for my hybrid 4 iron, which I clobbered three times. I have absolutely no idea why, however.

Anyway, I at least feel I have something to try for the 36 holes coming up this weekend. Thanks again.

Cheers!
