Long story short its been a long and frustrating road back after wrist surgery almost 2 years ago now, when I was in the middle of my best golf ever at an 8.2 handicap. Since its been range session after session, lesson after lesson, all for not it seems. I've had sessions where I'll start out grooving it and end up hitting 10 foot high gopher killers with a wicked slice, or vice versa, start a session terribly and hit well at the end.
Today I decided to try and keep my hands more inside and take the club back flatter, after a few awkward feeling swings I found myself staring to hit everything high and exactly where I was aiming. 58* - Driver, everything was right on line with an ever so slight draw. I was about 10-15 balls from the end of my bucket so I went and bought another just to be sure. Out of a 75 ball bucket I hit 2 thin... that's by far the BEST I've done with a bucket in months. I was still feeling a little awkward but as I was watching the ball flight I was quickly getting over it.
So my question to the swing gurus, for a weekend warrior that just wants to shoot in the 80s again, is a flatter swing something to worry about, or is it just an indication that I may have been getting to quick and steep with the swing I was trying to "recover" after surgery?
As always, thanks in advance ladies and gents.
