So, play really well today on my local league course. 2 bogies, 1 birdie for +1 for 9 holes. Reflecting on my outing I came to the conclusion that I need help to get off the tee. 200-210y drives aren't going to cut it on a bit longer course. @Tom Saguto , if you had to rebuild someone's driver swing where would you start :) I'm ready to dismantle it. Going straight today but absolutely no distance.

@billmo7419 - One of the many great things about this swing is that you can achieve solid ball striking even at the most basic levels. This is why I oftentimes will refer students back to Chapter 2 of the Golf Swing Simplified course when they experience a hiccup or perceived setback. That chapter reinforces the body motions and the weight-forward component, and it culminates with Drill 2.8, or what I call "The Best Golf Swing Practice Drill of All Time".
Master that drill and you'll be well on your way to swing ownership, and you can even use its partially abbreviated swing on the course and play quite nicely with it as it will provide plenty of distance. (It actually is the full swing minus just a couple of power accumulators.) In fact, I'm considering renaming the drill "The Burkholder Swing Molder" after fellow member @Ronald Burkholder, who shot five consecutive rounds in the 70's using just the 2.8 swing...😂
