four things -

1) grip
2) aim
3) ball placement
4) tempo, rhythm

https://static.bf2s.com/files/user/21025/ss/ball%20placement.jpg

you said grips ok
put your feet, toes inline with your aim (big line)
the less loft, the more you want it left. (D,3, 5W- 3,4 irons) Driver should always be teed, equal to left big toe.
mid irons (5,6,7) about the middle (thin line)
short irons/wedges - the more loft, the more towards your right big toe.

tempo - never swing for the fences, let the club do the work. count 1 (back swing) pause 2 (downswing). if your still too fast, count
1 (back swing) 2 (pause) 3 (down swing)

and yes, my left foot is bigger than my right

Thanks 13urnzz.

I think my waist may be starting to rotate just a touch before I finish my backswing. Probably a baseball mechanic. I did find that I had slowed my swing down a fair bit by the end of the afternoon, I'll try counting next time.

Too bad I can't karma you again.

Spose it's getting too cold for you guys to play now? I've played a few times in the last few months. Getting better shots off now. Still not great but I usually get it in the hole for maybe 1-2 over most of the time.

I played a couple days ago my driving and putting was on, but my mid irons were going left. My glove isn't perfect since I need a new one I ended up shooting a 96 with 7 pars in 18 holes. I how ever was happy about sinking a 20ish foot putt for par. The round before this I played 9 at a local course and shot a 43 so I'd say that's pretty good for January golf.

Been starting to play a bit more regularly this year (last few years have only been 2/3 rounds per year lol) culminating in an 87 last week. Was 4 over through the front 9 which I was bloody happy with

I use a putter I won at Comdex in like 1994. I don't know why, I just have grown accustomed to it.

I still use this putter. I've been playing 36 holes a week for the last month after not picking up a club for like a year. I'm at about a 25 right now. Hoping I can shave at least another 5 off by summer. I forgot how much I love to play.

wow

you should be able to bump a golf ball into the hole the same way you bump a thread.

25 five strokes later and without the know-it-all attitude you display on this forum.

Anyone use the TaylorMade Burner Plus irons? Seem to have good reviews online.

I have the RBZ irons which are similar. They are great clubs, hit very well, the long irons are easy to hit, and good contact goes a long way. When you make great contact, it feels like magic. (To a high handicapper)

RBZ's are a higher end set, and seem to be worth every penny. I'm not sure i'm ready though...I don't hit the ball hard enough to actually maximize the value of having a solid hitting set of clubs. I think for the next year or so I'd like to shore up my accuracy and stroke before I move on to start maximizing the driving distance.

After hitting mizunos, pings, nikes, titliest , taylormades and callaways, I ended up going with the callaway diablo edge irons. It was between the burner plus, ping g15s and the diablos. At the end of the day I liked the size and weight of the diablos the most. I shot a 36 over with the mizuno mx-57s on saturday

Oh and I picked up an odyssey white ice putter. I got the #9 but they are all on sale right now.

shot an 81 yesterday. Would have been even lower, but blew up on two holes on the back nine. Still the best game i've played in years

picked up a burner 2.0 superfast driver and rescue 3 hybrid 18°. Received some golf lessons, and as a result retooled my swing almost completely. Excited to get out to the range
