    Any keys to striking longer irons better/more consistently? I struggle mightily with my 4 iron, either off the tee or from the fairway. Every once and a great while I'll hit a good one, but most are weak slices or duck hooks. The rest of my bag, I have little fear of, but when it's time to pull a 4, it sends shivers up my spine.

    How to fade & draw the ball on command?? .... Every time I "try" to do either, it rarely does. They only seem to happen on accident.

    How to increase compression? .... hitting the ball first instead of trying to "lift" into the air instead of letting the loft of the club do that. I'm sure this is why I hit my short irons better than my long irons.

    How to increase spin around the green? .... on such a short shot, say 30 - 50 yards, it seems almost impossible to impart quality spin to stop it near the hole. This is why I tend to fly everything further & expect roll out. Then I go too far. Even when playing the ProV1

    Thanks :)

    Hello my daughter just got into school golf and I was just wondering if there was any good drills she can do at home I have taught her a few things but she don’t like to listen to ol dad
  4. Can you throw in some tips on how to avoid the dreaded 3 putt?
    Also, what's the best way to start a round cold, getting to the course with no time to warm up or playing a course that doesn't have a driving range. How to get some swing feel without being able to hit some balls.

    Are there any tips for getting the ball out of thicker rough? I find I come in too shallow and have the club lose all speed in the grass before contact. And what about ball position and club face angle?

    We have a downhill hole on my home course with a severe right to left slope resulting in a downhill, sidehill lie for a second shot. Any help with how to play this shot would be greatly appreciated. I usually need to hit a hybrid for my second shot. Thanks!!!
  11. Pitching and chips to get up and down.
  12. I'd really appreciate seeing all things short game. Tight lies, from the rough and conditions in-between.
    High shots, low ones, spin or no spin. Thanks.

    The older I get the harder it is to get fairway wood shots high in the air. Any tips?

    I would like to know about grip size. I think many golfers would like to know the best way to choose their grip size. Is it about feel, shot shape, trying to create a shot shape. I wear a ML glove but like mid size grips but I do have trouble hitting a draw when I need to, is this grip keeping me from closing the club face more in my release ? Thanks in advance.

    Chipping & Pitching tips (within 30 yards to green) and how to practice them. Keep it simple. Mindset? (Tempo, Acceleration, etc.)
  17. How to avoid over swinging...swinging too hard.
  18. I would like to learn more about bounce with my wedges. I had a Vokey 60 degree with 12 degrees of bounce. I liked it but my grooves wore out. I went to my pro who watched me hit sand shots and he suggested i get a new wedge with 8 degrees of bounce. I did and have regretted it ever since. My bunker play has gone backwards I gave my new wedge to one of my kids. I am back playing my worn out 60 degree wedge with 12 degrees of bounce. I want to get a new 60 degree wedge but I don’t know what would best fit my game

    Would love to receive help from James Sieckmann or another putting instruction on the dreaded YIPS.

    I’m fine on the practice green. On the course I am afraid of the outcome on every putt.

    My right hand seems to be the culprit. In desperation, I’ve been putting with just my left hand.

    Thank you!
