Re: Drving problems....

Hello Lefty Nate.

There's just as much help available to lefties as there is to righties. The only difference is that lefties have to adapt the writing to themselves (welcome to the plight of left-handed people the world over).

So when you see instruction indicating the right hand, right foot, etc, you use your left hand and left foot.

As for your fade, here are two 'quick fixes' for your driver:

First, drop your trailing foot (left foot) when addressing the ball. Make sure your toes are no closer to the ball than the middle of your right foot.

Second, face the club so that it points right of target a handful of degrees (something between 1 and 5 will be fine). Most big headed drivers are actually meant to setup 1° closed, and most folks don't do it, then wonder why they slice.

A new highlight: Golfing the home course on Christmas Day.

I say it too often: If it's golf club shaped, you can play with it.

For the record, I'm a club doctor, not a swing doctor.
