Loss of form

Posted by: user238352 | Mon 19th Jul 2010 21:57 | Last Reply

Does anyone have any idea why i'd play some excellent golf last year, had plenty of practice this year, yet can't hit a ball for toffee.  As far as im aware my swing is still the same, yet im struggling to hit the ball straight.  When I do have a resonably good round my putting is terrible.  I play cack-handed and would appreciate any tips as to why this year I am pulling alot of my drives left.  Also any iron below a 5 I have a tendency to pull left, your help would be much appreciated.  It's not so much a confidence thing, perhaps with the putting, but I always approach a course I play often, try my best but I seem to hit 1 good shot, 3 bad .  Would changing my stance help?

Hi Kenny, quite a bit going on there a video posted up would help us to analyze.I would also suggest you could visit our  resedient teaching Pro Steve Cowle who is not that far from you in Binsted, Hampshire. Good luck.

Hi Kenny.

I've been suffering with the same thing; no rhythm, timing out, topping, slicing (normal shot shape is a draw), poor short game, the lot.  It's an awful feeling.  However, I went out after work tonight, didn't feel like I was doing anything different and it all (apart from the putting) clicked back into place and shot a personal best 82. 

Don't give up hope.  As they say about footballers, form is temporary

Nice easy confidence booster course ( falconwood ) tommorow, but remember to bring your putter this time.

8AM sharp.
