Originally Posted by Dawgtired Hi Everyone! I'm new to TGM and this site. I received my Alignment Golf DVD on Friday and couldn't wait to view it. A little background...I had a 6.2 handicap at one time. I was playing quite a bit and I guess I could control my flip because of that. I still received comments about my high ball flight though. The fact that I was flipping never occured to me.I just thought I hit the ball higher and softer than my playing partners. I've taken three year off from golf for various reasons, job changes, etc. Now I want my game back and thought the DVD might be a great starting point especially after hitting the range a couple of times and just embarrassing myself. So today after watching the tapes I went out and hit it very, very, well. Almost all my shots were straight or with a sweet little draw. I hit the occasional hook but even those felt pure. However, I still hit a bunch of shots fat. I mean chunked 'em. Is that from hitting down too sharply or flipping. I assume others have had this problem when changing their swing to TGM. Any suggested drills? THANKS!!!! OK, so let's take this in an orderly fashion. Did you hit fat shots during Basic Motion, Acquired Motion, or Total Motion shots? Give us details and we can get clearer ideas. BTW, what drills caught your fancy? What do you feel are your weaknesses when you hit shots fat? Or, in general? How many chips did you do today? Do you have access to a camera? I'm not trying to discourage you Dawg, as a matter of fact, we are all rooting for you to succeed. We just need you to pick an unraveling thread and will help you start mending! What is your game like when it is going well? Tell us about your skills!
