Chubby 52 year old Canadian looking for some ball striking help. Please go easy on me lol
I’m only able to golf 5 months a year, but would like some help. I know I’ll never hit it 300+ yards ever. I’m very real with myself and don’t try to inflate anything in my golf game. I’m an 8 handicap and hit my 7 iron 155’ish

Dude one miss hit and alot of shit can happen….i get anxiety watching shady home nets haha at least ur trying
It to keep it simple I give the analogy of a hammer fired pistol : your grip is about transferring the pressure from the setup into the takeaway from the lead hands ring and middle finger into the trail ring and middle fingers. Lead pinky maintains consistent pressure.
By way of the trigger squeeze, that is your trail pinky gradually adding squeeze as the club travels to the top of the swing.
At the top about or just before parallel your trail pocket of your pants fires like the hammer of the pistol to the firing pin does the pocket fires in rotation to the ball position. …good luck!
You’re all arms. Need to allow the body to move as a counter balance to the club. You just whip the arms around your body. Body needs to get out of the way of the swinging arms and club.
I find it hard to believe single digit handicaps are asking reddit for advice. If you are really an 8 handicap at 52 hitting 155 yd 7 irons, then thats pretty damn good and Id just keep rocking with your swing.
That said, to my non-expert eyes, seems like an inside take away, too big of a back swing and could use more/better weight transfer
