I'm 6'6" and hit the odd block if I hunch rather than stand up straight & tall & my posture makes the world of difference to my quality of strike.
I've got a mate who slid left on his downswing and his pro used to have him shouting "WALL!" at impact during his lessons imagining he was standing? against an invisible wall... Freaked a few people out on the driving range I can tell you! ;-)
@richiebacker1 lol ... By: helenathena. on 25 Nov 10, 18:35:23 @richiebacker1 lol no i already know my problem. its just a tendency i move to the left on my down swing so my club face opens, just feels natural to? me
@helenathena ... By: richiebacker1. on 25 Nov 10, 14:29:07 @helenathena You've obviously? never had the shanks!!
Try standing up a little taller to the ball with your chin up - good posture will give you more room to turn back and through should stop those nasty blocks x

The trick for wind playing is hitting it reasonably hard, but not putting much spin on it. Not? easy to do. Hitting it hard, low spin, and low is really tough, because hitting it lower and harder add spin. Frankly, I'm not good enough to mess around with my swing in the wind, I just try to hit it solid and adjust accordingly.
@MrLuigiFercotti ... By: GwaishfulGuy. on 08 Jul 10, 03:07:54 @MrLuigiFercotti True, but swings can be deceptive,? look at ernie else, slow swing, but he has the power behind him.

Almost looks like he? hit it thin on purpose, which will give a lower flight. A very soft swing as well.
You can't put forward spin on the ball, only reduce backspin.
