Can Drive cannot Arrive

 In most cases, the more you practice the more you see results but not so with golf but obviously you need to practise correctly. Even each instructor is different and often we drift in and out of such situations. Yesterday embarrassingly i played 114. Was driving well but irons were total bullshit, shanking everything even my 50m chip. to think a week ago i was playing some of my best golf hitting a personal best of 92.

So, after Saturday's game i went to the range hit 50balls and flushed pretty much all of them. Sigh.what is happening?  undeterred, today, i played 9Holes. i hit 4/6 fairways. An example on Changi Hole 16, I only had to do a 70m 48deg Wedge but i top chunk shank it a potential par turn double bogey.

Hence, i decided to journal my golf journey take notes for my own reference and since i am driving well..

Note:

Club and body address: Grip with left hand 1" lower from butt end and Rest the driver slightly on its Heel and  take your stance not too wide around shoulder length.  The ball should just be inside your left heel  and place your right feet 3" back ( this will encourage a more in to out path when you swing down)

Grip: left grip approx 15deg stronger with the V between thumb and index finger pointing at you. right  palm above left thumb.

How far  to stand from the driver: when you are in position make sure your right thumb just cover  your left shoe

The swing: do a "half swing"  till its around parallel to the ground while wrist (left) is around 45-50deg position abit of a push outward motion and you should feel a slight tension and swing though slowly ( do not force) a easy swing yields 180m. 

Prepare to say thank you because everyone will say Good Shot :D
