On the weekend I struck my irons probably better than i ever had, long and with a nice high draw.

With either the 3W or driver in my hand i couldn't hit it to save myself even taking slow motion half swings... just felt like i couldn't get to the ball without getting over active with the pivot. The bad shots were fats, drop kicks, tops and the occasional low draw that at least advanced up the fairway

Tried some basic and aquired motion with the driver after the round but still can't get it back with these longer clubs. I'm not trying to hit them any harder than my wedges...

Suggestions more than welcome!

Thanks
Sounds like you are flipping at it to me. Make sure that you Monitor your hopefully Flat Left Wrist. Take some swings with your eyes closed. Really focus on your HANDS. Is you Flat? Is you over-accelerating? Can you feel your pressure points?

It's hard to say what's going on without seeing it. Get your video camera out if you have one. See if you're bending your left wrist.

What are you TRYING to do when you hit your woods?
