An indroduction and a call for help

[Damon.H]

I've been playing this wonderfull game for six months now and like the most of us, I'm on the eternal quest for lower scores. I live in Australia and have found this forum and its members a wonderfull place to share and help improve. :act-up:

Freddie please look at my ever evolving swing. I've got the V1 swing app which is terrific, I'm consistently shooting around 48 for 9 holes and shot a 96 from 18 holes yesterday. The things I have noticed are not enough rotation, arms not extending after impact and flipping with the driver. Also right hand looks too strong.

My misses are, with the driver is a slice, and the irons are thin/topped.

My goal is to get to single figures and to keep enjoying this wonderful game. Thanks Freddie in advance.

Damon.

Welcome to this great site. I know Freddie can help with your swing. But also you should keep detailed stats to see where you need the most improvement. Just eliminating 3 putts or chucked chips or whatever it may be could be all you need to improve

#score 96
#6 out of 14 FIR

A polite bump for Freddie :act-up:

At the moment I'm basing my swing around the papers written by Jeffrey Mann, though wow there's a ton of information he's written for the analytical golfer. http://perfectgolfswingreview.net/overview.htm

Alignment is key in any consistent golf swing. Actually any athletic move to tell you the truth. Ypur posture is good but get your alignment togther. The mind is powerful and will.swing along the dominate line even if you are aimed differently.

Get the club head moving straight back then up. This gives you move room to operate and you won't come so far inside. Keep that weight on the inside of the right leg not on the left. This will allow you to deliver the club from and inside to out position instead of over the top.
