Hope

Alright so as I have stated in previous posts, I have played absolutely awful for the past 2 years. A huge slump, taking lessons with 5 different pros, each who couldnt figure out why I could not get the ball off the ground with the driver. So today I went to an EXTREMELY WEAK grip and went with a swing though I saw online. To focus on turning the club over the right shoulder to make sure I make a full swing. And I actually was hitting them maybe 25 feet off the ground around 225. Needless to say I could not believe the ball was getting off the ground. I am excited to see what happens tomarrow, as I was so close to selling the clubs.

Matt

getting the driver in the air...

Matt,
Don’t give up. The change you have recently made, which you have found helpful, is the key. Many golfers feel that if they can not correct the swing flaws with a lesson or two that then they can never correct them. But I have found that once you find a small ray of light you just have to try and follow the light as well as you can. You may find that adjusting your ball placement in conjunction with a fuller turn and new grip may help your ball flight. But in the end just don’t give up. I would be willing to bet that if you work on your driver for a week or two that you will discover a swing that will work and one which you can play with.

Glad you are getting the ball up in the air a bit now. Hope things get even better for you tomorrow (or today)!
