I've been playing golf for just over 1 year and my handicap is 24 and, although I get pretty contact with the ball most of the time, my shots frequently end up going to the left, on a straight line.



This usually ends up getting me in to trouble which is preventing my handicap from coming down, so any thoughts or advice would be gratefully received... the frustration is killing me and will end up with broken clubs!!!

Thanks for the comments, very much appreicated. My shots go more off-line with my shorter irons which I've been told is to do with the lie-angle of the club being incorrect for me, so I think I will take my clubs along to a Pro to get checked as they were not fitted for me when I bought them.

I have also been told by a friend (4 handicapper) that I have a tendency to 'cast' the club on my downstroke which is causing me to come 'across' the ball resulting in some shots going left, unless they fade slightly. Again, it seems that I need to work on this par of my swing. I've had a quick look at the website that you suggested and will study the coaching part in more detail this evening. Once again, thanks for the help.
