Haha... fOody, i like this word, banana...

of all my swing,
5% - straight (lucky hit)
10% - air swing (faint...)
20% - club above ball
20% - hitting mat before ball
45% - right curve ball (banana ball)

I'm now only practice with iron #7

Duval_S, if I got the chance & right time, will go to you all one day.

So, how you straighten your swing? Get a coach?

Hall of Fame Golfer Posts : 8185 Join date : 2009-06-19

hi...I was new here many months ago. welcome to the forum and do join us for games and range

I am a seasoned beginner only...so not sure I understand your question.

for straighten the ball, I draw the line along the equator of the ball...and then align it....(did I read your question correct?

Newbie Golfer Posts : 10 Join date : 2010-10-27

yaya, what i mean it is should the club head face pionting up or down direction?
wonder it could be the swing format in wrong, that is why my ball not in straight line in between the fairway?

current can't play well.. dun want to make myself a shame...

Subject: Re: Hello... Newbie in golf ^^ Wed Nov 03, 2010 2:35 pm

Most welcome shiokshiok, myself being a victim of slicing my driver big time have found this rather useful.

Apart from maintaining the spine angle, inside to out swing path and full release when finishing are other aspects to a driver swing that you might want to look into.

Have fun swinging Swing
