Cure your slice

Good news, bad news.

Played Gross Saturday w/ Steven and was not hitting fairways - that's the bad news.

Went to the driving range Sunday afternoon and hit the ball pretty well - that's the good news.

The first ball I hit at the range, I'm thinking just make this a loose-arm, easy release practice swing. Don't hardly even take the club back. Ball went straight and about 80% of my max drive distance.

That set the tone and I hit the rest of the bucket pretty well.

When I lined up my ball with the yardage markers I did a pretty good job of keeping them on target, but most of time I was just trying to not slice or even fade.

I'm sure that some of the balls that seemed OK on the range would have ended up in the rough.

I really feel like I'm only a couple of buckets of balls away from a stroke that will produce a straight, 220yd drive.

And, once I'm hitting it 220 and straight I think I'll be able to add some distance and maybe get closer to 240.
