Try going back to his college days 😧His team mates refused to share a locker room with him, accused of theft, and various other on course demeaners. Various other stories if you look hard, also his family life was pretty twisted. The stupid thing is he is superbly talented and would have succeeded without all the nonsense.

Ray Gin Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 I've had a struggle with fat shots creeping in regularly over the last few months so I experimented with my swing a little last weekend and tried a shorter follow through, Tommy Fleetwood style. It seemed to really help to stop me from releasing too early and getting flippy with my arms through the ball. I had a few pushes but not a single fat or thin connection. Anyone else swing using this technique? Seems worth persevering with. The only problem was tinkering with my swing destroyed my drives, with massive hooks emerging. Why is it so hard to get everything working in sync? There's always one part of my game goes to ****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to thin it regularly and have a really early release until my instructor told me to watch videos of Tommy and to try replicate his swing. Out of all the work I've done since starting nearly 2 years go, that's been the biggest help for me.

If not, why can't you just keep the shortened follow through for iron/wedge play? That's what Fleetwood does. Driver is full swing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any new courses we play, parkland, links and how they are underfoot is taken into consideration. Our aim is play the course and conditions so that ideally every club in the bag gets an airing. Too short, drive and 8 iron up, too long, drive and 4 iron down. When playing abroad and have the choice of tees, we'll aim for 6300y to 6500y, never want to come of a course cussing it's length.
