One eyed and left handed
I used to play a lot of golf and scored consistently in the low 80's but somewhere along the way an old back injury started getting worse and in order to make it to work everyday and pay the bills I put the clubs away, my dream of playing a round in the 70's unfulfilled.
A couple of years ago I found a chiropractor who used a thing called "spinal decompression" to help my back feel better. So much so I tried a round or two of golf and played without pain for the first time since my teens.
I used to hit it pretty good. Driver was a reliable stinger like 10 yard draw. Everything else was pretty strait and I could hit it pretty well - 7 iron about 165 off a 34 degree club. When I came back to golf at 46, I was hitting weak slices. Huge slices. Somewhere in the next fairway slices. I tried a bunch of stuff to help myself but the only real way was to let off - big time, I hate letting off.
I heard about GolfTEC here and wished we had one here. I have seen teachers here at work and they use video or just get you to swing the club and hit balls and book more lessons. I wanted to get help but not that way.
When GolfTEC opened here, I did the evaluation and then booked lessons. So here it is, a one eyed, left handed, slightly color blind guys journey to improvement.
I was a mess. All that we saved of that was my setup position. In my next few posts you can see how quickly you can improve.
