I have a -75 flat sleeve for my driver but haven't put it in yet...I hit a cut but my nemenis is a hook... I'm also 5'8" which a giant in my mind =)
What will this flatter sleeve do for me??

The golf journey through practicing should be just enjoyable as playing a round of golf. All the work is done on the range so when you get on the course its all pre shot routine, feel and rhythm. Nothing better than executing a nice little fade the correct distance ending up next to your target!

So essentially keep the club face open and aim your feet left while swinging down the path of your feet

Hey chris, been playing the PSI for years, wanted 770s . Weren’t available and got the new 790s and they’re to chunky cannot hit them and went back to my psi. What 700 series iron do you think is most similar to the psi

Are you changing forward shaft lean with this shot? I really struggle with fading irons but can’t draw my driver.

I use the the same method but don't change my swing. I have to aim more left so the ball starts left of target. Learned that from a few great ball strikers. One being the first pro to get a hole a one on a par 4. I can't for the life of me remember his name right now. He played with Jack and only lost most of time because the yips with the putter. Johnny Miller! He like that little fade for taking a little off when between clubs. I do the opposite for draws. I have been working on swing inside out and it does get better results and higher trajectory. But have an issue getting my straight ball swing back. Then when I do i struggle getting the the draw swing back. So I just try and keep the same swing. For me it is more consistent. It is really hard to be consistent with one swing. Adding two more, well, I'm not that good. Once I burn in a swing it stays burned in. It take several tries to do the others and even more to do them right. I know how to do them both ways, i do practice swings and visualize. Yet when I get over the ball and hit the shot in a round, the neutral swing sneaks in. My swing hits the ball straight.

R u supposed to swing out to in or in bodyline?

[davidmarlow]

15 to 20 yd fade. Water left, green right.

[swrveGaming]

For me it confuses me bc I feel like if I was to try to hit left I’m just going to hit a hard hook. ( coming from a heavy draw biased golfer )

Alignment sticks aren't for the ground. They are to stick in the ground in front of you. Start line shows neutral. Can use two for a gate (vary width depending on ability) or just one.

Give us a break we have to play behind players all the time doing all this checking, re-checking, just get up and hit the ball. It is called ready golf, new to you?
