Any other suggestions are welcomed. With the Hit stroke you need to gather yourself in a slow, heavy and deliberate motion that puts your hands in place to drive pp3 through the ball. I think you might still be trying to crank it up like a swinger who needs to generate a fast throw out release. You need to drive straight down and thru the ball. Check with Ted Fort on tee height and ball location. He is the man to see. You may also need to close the face a tiny bit at address. 6bmike View Public Profile Send a private message to 6bmike Find all posts by 6bmike
