The proper golf swing and clubs that fit?
Peter L asked:
I’m taking lessons right now and really trying to get my swing down right…what I am experiencing tho is that my golf shot/ball flight (not swing…maybe it still is bad…but thats why Im taking lessons)…seems to be getting worse…I think its because now that my form is getting better and Im beginning to really understand the mechanics of a proper golf swing (although exectution is a totally different issue) I am not adjusting my swing to fit my equipment as much as in the past…I am really hitting a wall…anyone else experience the same thing when they really began to understand the golf swing? I have about 12 lessons left and really thinking about just stopping for now and getting some fitted clubs…what are some of your thoughts?
in response to danbetti…im not really blaming my equipment for my bad golf game…what im saying is, if your clubs dont fit…can you really perform what should be a textbook golf swing…i kno eldrick woods can pick up any club and smash the cover the cover off…ive got some cheap clubs that are cast iron and apparently very hard metal, so the pro shop wasnt able to adjust the lie…which they say is about 2.75-3 degrees to upright…which means at address my arms cant hang the way a “proper” swing calls for…i asked this question because whats the point of me taking lessons learning how to make a good golf swing, when my equipment prevents right from the get go a proper set up…im asking this question to find out if others have faced the same thing…i wasnt really blaming on my cheap clubs…im partly blaming clubs dont dont fit properly…so this question applies whether or not im swing $2K set that dont fit…
