My name is Bruce and i am in Australia. I only picked up golf clubs for the first time at the end of May this year.

I played a round of golf on a par 70 coarse (Redbank Plains for those who know it) my score was 137. I then had a lesson learnt how the grip the club and how to stand at the ball. straight away my scores drop to about 125. I then had a second lesson on how to get out of sand, chip and do flop shoots over bunkers. my scores dropped another 10 strokes.

I went back about a month ago and asked the coach how to generate more power, he told me that I had to transfer my weight instead of just using my shoulders. For the last month I have been trying to do that without much success. here was some of my distances.

7iron was hitting it about 110yards. my 3 iron about 150 yards. my driver 190 yards. early last week I learnt how to do it properly aswell as hit the ball square. I now hit my 7 iron 150 yards, my 3 iron 190 yards, and my driver about 220 yards. My last 3 rounds have been 97, 95, and 92. Which included my fisrt three birdies and an eagle.
