You can fix your golf game by fixing your grip without doing anything else. Be sure you can see two knuckles on the left hand and then set the right hand on it. The golf gods made it so that the left thumb fits into the lifeline of the right hand. That allows you to start hitting it more solid, start hitting it crisper, start hitting it harder. Don't put your right hand on the left if you can't see that circle.
Most amateurs aim to the right and swing back over the top.
Your feet are on the near track, the ball is on the far track. Any time you need to check yourself, you need to look at your grip, set-up, posture and alignment. They are so important. They work, work, work at it and forget about the short game. For the first two months of the season, I work on hitting balls.
