But when I take a longer swing I'm blading the ball or it goes way right or left. I am now confused of the proper swing it takes to hit these shots. I know I want the ball on the tee and I do tee it just above the ground but I just can't get a consistant shot to the green.I l might be swaying a bit on my backswing instead of keeping my leg steady like mikey300 said but I could use more suggestions please.
It really sounds to me like this has gotten inside your head. This is easy to say but harder to do: Relax! Try to play the par threes like you are playing the second shot of a par four. Don't put so much mental pressure on yourself and make the same swing you have been making all day.
