i've had some moderate breakthroughs recently.
always slicing drives, esp. when i try to hit it hard... so i strengthened my power hand quite a bit. (hand further from grip)...........now my hands don't necessarily face each other. i think jon rahm does this.
been having problems with wedges recently.. made sure i had my weight way on my front foot at impact............. a former golf phenom i know told me that many years ago. fyi, it is apparently documented that tiger woods thought he had the best short game he'd ever seen (probably juniors or ncaa). for sure, he knows TW fairly well.... EDIT: i'd never found it before, but here it is...
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/.../..........Rob McMillan shakes his head and smiles when it comes up, as it often does.
"I've never seen it, but that's the rumour," the 24-year-old Winnipeg-based touring professional golfer says. "It's great that he said it."
It is Canadian golf's version of an urban legend: Shortly after Tiger Woods's groundbreaking win at the 1997 Masters, he was interviewed on U.S. network television by Barbara Walters, who asked him whether there were other young players to look for.
"Watch for Rob McMillan," Woods replied. "He's a Canadian with an awesome short game. You'll hear a lot about him soon."
both these worked really really well for me.
also a psychological change i'm making.. i hit my 4 iron really well. depending on tees, i'm going to drive with it quite often.. probably won't be good from blue/black tees but then i usually have tons of room from those tees (at least out in the fairway... sometimes hit out of chutes)
