OKAY!!!!

Went out to my postage stamp practice course this morning.

Paired with some gentlemen they play the course regular (5 times a week).

I had some issues with crispy hits but seem to push with ever so slight fade. Explained to one of the fellows probably a fews years older then me. I'm guessing he shot 77 today! What I am doing with hands forward and weight. And commented looked like might be a bit too forward?(hands that is)

To continue, Fairway woods were in the house today! Decided before the round that I was not going to second guess myself and just put them in the alignment grid and KNOW I can hit them. Every wood shot today was KFC! Which explains the start of back nine that has back to back par 5's to start, went birdie, par!

Short game was also lights out again! 26 putts total !!!!!!

Final report:

81carded with 39 on back 9!

SUGGESTION looking for how do I address the directional issues with mid to long irons? Not terrible, but definitely do not have the control I have with shorter irons (some directional issues) and driver (not a big hitter but keeping it in play)and (yippee) now fairway woods are back.

Thanks, looking forward to responses!

Nice round, @Steven, and good job renewing your relationship with the fairway woods! Phenomenal putting as well!!

Hand position is even with the inside of your lead thigh for all clubs. No further forward than that.

It will help those who read your post if you can specify whether you have a typical miss with regard to starting direction and curve, or if they are pretty much random.

The Ball Flight Fixes section may help you with identifying the issues. It's also very important to know why the ball is behaving a particular way in order to reverse engineer the cause. The ball is simply responding to the flight plan assigned to it by the clubface at impact. Clubface relative to target line dictates the ball's starting line and face relative to path determines direction and degree of curvature. So if the starting direction is to the push side then the face is open to the target line at impact, and when the ball fades further right the face is open to the path. The question then comes down to whether your path is out-to-in (steep), too shallow, or on the proper in-to-out track. Video will certainly help determine this.

Thanks again....Busy up coming week might not have time for a outdoor range video.

But I can tell you...the more I review, the more I realize I have been over exaggerating the hands forward. I do sent up inside left thigh but move the hands forward before swing. doing so without realizing to try to not go back to that swaying back. Think this revelation might make some difference. And think the hands forward is pretty ingrained now, so should just set up inside the thigh and not worry about it and go through rest of swing. We shall see!

Sounds good. The ability to read and understand the ball flight, self-diagnose the cause, and apply the appropriate fix is a significant step forward in the overall process!
