Snow prevented any golf over the last couple of weeks... longest break for me for a long time.
50+ balls for practice.
For a change I started with 5W off tee as if playing first hole at Paultons. Bad idea with no warmup it took me about 25 balls before I felt confident to hit anything with any club. Hey ho live and learn. Anyway managed to relax and hit some decent shots before end of practice. It was very cold!
In lesson spent some time on new 60 degree. Try to get the stick moving quicker at impact. Also hit some 7 iron shots for video. Must get left foot in line (not behind right one). Trying to keep wrists straight on takeaway. Then try to keep wrists loose so that the stick swings through. Finally hit a few with the driver. Not too good this needs more work.
What my teacher said:
Alignment: Bamboo sticks would be a good investment. Pop them down in line with chosen target (train track). Get feet in line.
Swing: Less flop at top for all clubs.
Lob wedge: slow back accelerate through.
Driver: set up ball forward .. keep practicing.
Good lesson.
