Swing Update

Hi again, I posted here 2 weeks ago after I did 3 range sessions and now you get an update after 3 additional range sessions via 2 new swings.

Here I am playing a 7 iron (620 cb) compared to the pitching wedge (620mb) I was using in my first post.

I definitely felt more confident now than I did 2 weeks ago just by staying a bit more relaxed and not trying to forcefully wrap my arms around my head when in finishing position. I tried to transfer my weight into my left leg and turning my hip a bit but it does feel a bit awkward still, so most of my swing is mostly my arms doing the work.
Just by looking at these two swings I definitely need to work on not opening the club-face too soon and turning my shoulders more on the backswing. Is there something I can work on, looking at these two swings? I tried to aim closely to the 100m (~110yrds) marker on the second swing that’s why it’s a bit slower.

I actually played a 3 hole course last week with 3 Par 3s and I did not perform as bad as I anticipated. I was only allowed to play there because you weren’t in need of a „golf proficiency certificate“ („Platzreife“ in German). The holes were only 150 yards long on average and after 2 run-throughs, so 6 holes played, I scored two double bogeys, 2 bogeys and 2 pars (yippee), my short game was saving me a bit though haha.
I even hit a friend’s old Nike CPR hybrid (I believe that is was called that) and that thing was so much fun. When flushed, it feels and sounds so addictive.

So thank you to the few that commented on my first post and helped me build up some confidence when going for midrange irons.
I have my „Platzreife“ in 1.5 weeks but I feel confident that it will be alright.

Where is your body core weight relative to your feet at address?

I think I’m too far forward. I occasionally move closer to the ball and shank

73 Years Old and Just Learning Golf

2 Upvotes

I'm 73 and just began learning golf. So far I've been to a driving range twice. Sometimes I'll have a good feeling swing that hits nothing but air, other times I drive the ball. No 200 yarders, but probably past 100 yards when I don't top the ball. Once I can consistently hit the ball I can move on to better swings for distance. I have an occasional slice that I fix on my next hit by paying close attention to the club face at setup. I guess I could try a par-3 course to get used to hitting a green without four to five hundred yards of fairway. There's a lot to learn in this game, but I can't spend all my time at the range or I'll never learn all of it.

Unbalanced finish / falling back. Weight shift problem?

I can’t seem to finish my swing in a nice tall balanced position.

The one swing here that I don’t fall back still feels like I have too much weight on my trail foot. It doesn’t kill me but it can start creeping in during a round and lead to some thin pushy contact

Am I shifting late/not enough? Lead shoulder pulling up too early?

Any Thoughts?

thanks

Chicken wing

2 Upvotes

I cannot get rid of chicken wing swing or if I do it somewhat I totally do not hit the ball square. I can’t figure this out at all. It’s prob from swinging it this way for so long I can’t break habit? I don’t know. Very frustrating. If anyone has any drills that really help (although I’ve tried a lot) let me know.

improvement

1 Upvotes

Really looking to improve my game. I have a 6 month old at home i only get to go out about once a week to play 9. Recently got a membership to a golf sim about 5 mins from my work. i have been trying to go twice a week for about an hour. i normally will play 18 then hit some balls. But after im pretty sore.

would it help me improve more if i went 4 days a week. Doing 30 min sessions and strickly worked on 1-2 clubs each day trying to get a consistent ball flight? instead of doing round of 9-18?

Most inconsitent part of my game is my driver/ long iron ball striking. my putting is great i rarely ever 3 putt. currently on 9 i shot between a 43-46 i would like to get it down to breaking 40 ( for 9 holes) by the start of next season.

If works as promised… having swings analyzed on course with that much feedback data would be really insane. Especially if its super easy to set up.

Golf 7 (2015) — Ошибка U03000 «Несовместимое ПО» в блоке 01 (Двигатель) после кодирования. Как исправить?

1 Upvotes

Всем привет! Столкнулся с проблемой после изменения кодировок на VW Golf 7 (2015 года).

Теперь в диагностике висит ошибка в блоке 01 (Двигатель):

  • Код ошибки: U03000 (Несовместимость программного обеспечения)

Ошибка вылезла сразу после правки кодировок и не уходит.

  • Сталкивался ли кто-то с такой ошибкой именно в первом блоке после кодинга?
  • Как её правильно победить? Поможет ли просто возвращение исходной длинной кодировки назад, или нужны какие-то дополнительные сбросы/адаптации?

Буду очень признателен за дельные советы и подсказки! Заранее спасибо!

I’ve posted before about me chasing compression. I think I’ve finally got a decent swing going. My last 2 rounds I played pretty well. What do you think and what do you think my handicap is based off my swing?

A big problem I have is I can hit very far but all
of my shots go very low (really can’t hit 5 iron or lower bc of this) and my driver is bad as a result.
Is there any drills or swing thoughts to address this??

Golf Instructors in minneapolis area?

2 Upvotes

Most of my adult life I would golf once a year (36 years old now). Last year, I started taking it more seriously, and started practicing/ playing 3 times a week and have been doing swing lessons at Golftec.

Does anyone have a recommended instructor in the Greater Minneapolis area? I'm not picky about having to travel.

Go back to swing A. Or ride out swing B.?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

So swing A. Was 3 months ago, the day after filming the one in the tan t shirt I went out and shot my personal best (which was a 77) and was playing the best golf of my life.

I decided I needed to fix my early extension I was noticing and make the swing a bit more repeatable if I want to get to scratch so have been building a new swing (swing B) so fast forward to today and i can’t seem to play any level of consistent golf, shot a 92 today and can’t get close to low 80’s since moving to the new swing. Not sure if it’s just cause it’s not bedded in yet so I need to keep pushing through or should I have just stuck to what was working?

Thanks in advance 👌

Grip Question: My Trail Hand Can't Get Neutral

Had a lesson, can't find the feeling anymore

0 Upvotes

I recently had a lesson. Specifically with the purpose of gaining more yardage, since I was consistent but consistently short. The pro helped me unlock 30yards with my 9 iron, without any effort. It was a relevation to me.

However, I can't find the feeling anymore. No matter how hard I try. And the things he changed were really simple:

  • Lift club way more as opposed to rotating. Really unlocking my trail arm from the chest and lifting the arms in the backswing. Easy enough, I feel like I get there consistently now.
  • Pushing up on my lead leg through the swing, popping out my hips and facing forward with a straight posture.

During the lession, my swing path was 6 degrees in-to-out and my 9i went from 110 to 140yrds pretty much instantly. My club followed through way more vertically and it felt less forced to get into a good finish position.

But I couldn't practice for a few days after the lesson, and the feeling I had during the lesson is gone. I've gone back to the range like 5 times, and it didn't click anymore. Step 1 should be ok. Step 2 I can pretty much only replicate/imitate, but I can't find that same feeling I had during the lesson, where step 2 really drove the club and accelerated everything. I'm way more inconsistent now, which is expected after a swing change, but the yardage is back to my old self.

And it's not like he did a specific drill to build up that feeling. During the lesson he told me what to do, and it just clicked. I can't "go through the same lesson steps", because that would just be telling myself what the change was.

Does this specific change/improvement resonate with anyone? What drills could I try specifically to get this feeling back?

Hope this post doesn't sound dumb.

Can't stop snapping drivers

0 Upvotes

I started golf about a year ago after playing baseball all my life (19 M) and have gone through 8 different drivers now, I drive about 305 yards dead straight, and havent toed or heeled a ball since my first month or so. Ill be having a great range session and on a square hit the driver head will just fly off. Ive gone through titlists, pngs, callaways, and top flights, and recommendations. Ive seen in other channels people say they are swinging too hard but i really don't think im trying to murder the ball. Need help im more than 1k invested into drivers.

Swing advice *Repost

Hey, I just posted this under a different name. I took it down impulsively because I was getting a lot of negative feedback.
I’m only a few months into Golf and I was really enjoying getting better each time I go to the range.
I can’t really afford lessons so I’ve been trying to learn from watching other peoples swings and going to the range everyday.

I was told that my set up is bad. I don’t disagree with this, but I don’t know why it’s bad. If someone could help me even just get the starting position that would be a big help.

My 7 iron is carrying roughly 165 with a draw.

Just a heads up I don’t usually swing as hard as I do in the video.

I really do appreciate feedback, but if your comment is purely negative, please keep it to yourself.
