Last couple or so rounds Im finding my swing (hitting driver) feels and been resulting in more good hits if I tell myself Im holding and hitting 3wood.
I hit my 3wood well (which fwiw I never use to, but I do this season). Driver this season not so much. Since my swing rebuild those 2 clubs sort of flipflopped opposite way for me. I developed an OTT swing with driver and while when its tamed can still be very efficient and long little fade. . Problem is its been more problematic than efficient. And then when it isn't going well enough I start to also lose tempo at which point outright poor misses are the result and hence a poor day off the tee.
So I have recently found that telling myself Im holding and swinging my 3wood. Not only has my OTT been diminished but even drawing the ball some again. Or at least straighter and simply just outright dropped the amount of poor and errant shots down a ton. Still hitting as long as I always did so its not like Im getting less yardage. In fact Im even bombing my fair share again.
Just something about my 3wood that feels good and my tempo is good and so making believe Im swinging 3wood has somehow began to fix my inconsistent driver. Right? wrong? IDK I guess whatever works. I just hope its not temporary and it keeps going. Anyone ever do something similar that helped.
