Considering this video is a couple years old, you’ve probably already worked on your driver but I would suggest spreading your feet a little bit, teeing it up further in your stance towards your left foot, and teeing it a little bit further away from you. It looked like (in this video) you aren’t able to fully extend and you kind of hack at it whereas you hit your irons great.

Great video about progress and tips along the way. For most people starting out I'd say follow his advice about just swinging a club first to gain coordination. Even swing the club in different weird loops to mess with different wrist positions this should help you gain some perception of where the club is compared to your hands/body. After you've done that look up videos on how to stand properly, grip the club neutral, aim somewhere, etc... Most little kids also start by hitting foam balls in the house and this could be very helpful for a beginner to not get dejected and have fun seeing the ball spin on carpet. Once you get to the point of going out and playing definitely go get lessons please especially if you're shooting under 90. Videotaping your swing is huge to find out real issues and having a plan will help a lot otherwise you could spin your wheels for years unless you play religiously and have insane natural coordination. I played college golf and the amount of people I know that complain they can't get better but won't take lessons or video their swing and spend time on drills almost ticks me off.

Great video. Some days are like that. Way to persevere. Luke can I ask a question? While you have been dropping your handicap, when did you notice that you were getting compression on your irons? About where was your handicap when you started to notice?
@UpDownGolf
@UpDownGolf 5 күн бұрын
Cheers Steve! Tough question that tbh. I think the compression has been getting steadily better this last year as I've worked on trying to be less tense and more fluid in my swing (and still am). I think I noticed my strike getting better around the 15 handicap mark though

Excellent video, I started playing 6 months ago and scored 128 on first round out. Now scoring low 100s and hoping to break 100 by the end of year. After my first two months at the range and after my first round I started having a lesson once a month. It has helped, but I always find it makes it worse, until you practice what they try to teach you and it clicks. I have my last lesson out of the 4 I booked on Saturday and I plan to leave it for the rest of the year, to just practice and play regularly. My questions is did you join a club to play the same coarse or pay and play at different courses?What would you suggest? I currently been playing different coarse, looking to find one to join in soon.
