Today I had another great and meaningful lesson with Dave up at North Palm Golf Club.
He was happy to see my increase and the development I have done the last weeks.
We talked a little bit about the technique and how I would create even more lag to lower the ball flight a little bit more. Even if I have a 7.5* driver I don't have any problems to get the carry I need, I'm actually more interested in lower the trajectory to get more roll on the ball.
I left the range with some new ideas to work with, and also the recommendation to continue with my Power Hitter and try to create lag when I practice with it.
I'm happy with the progress and could actually see the ball flight get a little bit lower then before. Now I'm just going to keep on working with the ideas and drills I have. I can also give you the happy statement that I switched putter grip to a oversized Winn grip, WOW what a difference, feels like it's impossible to miss any putt!
I would also like to say CONGRATULATIONS to the teams of Northwood University who made their way to nationals by winning regionals this weekend!

Arrival!
The driver and the irons arrived today:D! The driver is turned in to George at Edwinwatts golfshop so he can make it ready for my game!
I have some new swing thoughts now also, it has been too much movement lately which have given me a terrible inconsistency in ballstriking. So now I'm trying to take away much of the movement in my legs and make more of a shoulder turn.
My plan for the future is to build up my game for the tournaments back home which I will compete in. I just need to work on some details to raise my game to next level.
I will probably meet out with Dave some day next week and practice a little bit on the longdriving technique.

Update
The practice is going fine but I haven't been in the gym the last week because of the cold. I've been working with the power hitter on the range and I definitely has increased in distance and strength, not only with the drive but also all of the other clubs.
Right now I'm thinking of creating more lag in my downswing and push forward with my right side over to my left side. It sounds hard to understand but its basically about the weight shift.
I will get my new driver someday in next week and the irons will probably be in by then also. It's going to be fun with all these new equipment.
I think I will start put down more focus on my short game. Therefore I will start with a favorite drill. I will practice putting every second day and chiping every other day when I don't practice on my putting. I think that this schedule will give improve my putting and also raise my up & down percentage.
