I've recently developed a bad habit of taking to much divot during my swing. My practice swing seems perfect but when it comes to striking the ball I have a tendency to take a very large divot, sometimes to the point where the ball only travles half the intended distance.
I thought that practicing using only acquired motion would help however i still same to have the same problem.
Someone else noticed that my hips seem to drive downwards as i swing the club which is probably helping feed the issue.
Any thoughts on how to reverse this? My game has suffered by 5 strokes or more in the last three weeks.
Thanks in advance,
Rich
Sounds like a Plane thing to me. What kind of ball flight do y ou have with your driver and 3 wood?
Bucket, 3 and 7 wood flight are actually pretty good. I can both fairly long (175-225) and flight has good height.
I plan on spending half a day looking at my entire setup a little closer then taking it to the range.
If you any thoughts or suggestions let me know.
I'm personally working on this issue & it may be something to consider. If you get to upright or outside of the swing plane, it makes it almost impossible to get back to the true plane and impossoble to hit the inside/aft part of the ball.
Another thing to consider is the right elbow. I swing, but have some right hand hitting tendencies. Just before impact I want to hit it and my right elbow extends completely "a pre-mature both arms straight condition" and it will dig deep behind the ball & will close the club face.
What is your ball flight with short, medium, & long clubs? Good luck!!!
The light bulb has come on for me....so if this is what you have too, then properly utilzing the #2 & #3 accumulators will prevent early extension of the right elbow.
