Change or Not ?

Fix, we all put bad swings on especially OTT now and again but after having the pleasure of playing with you on a number of ocassions this is most definately not the norm! In my eyes you have a decent swing( a bit long ala Mickleson etc,). For a man who recently shot +3, I would not even be contemplating a swing rebuild, maybe a few tweeks like being more compact( shouldn't be giving advice)
Anyway as stated by yourself your short game is not up to scratch, if I was you this is the area I would be focusing on, there is an easy 4-5 shots a round or maybe more in there if your put the effort in around the greens, that equates to you scoring +4 or +5 and less on a good day, now that is a decent level:D, only when I have achieved that and all other avenues are exausted with regard to getting lower if that was the goal would I consider major swing changes.

Last week I walked off a course, feeling like i had one of the best games of my life, having collected a grand total of 94 shots for only 17 holes.

That almost indescribable feeling of the clubhead shuddering in ecstasy. I hit more 'pure' shots than ever.

I made that change, and its nothing to do with the score at the end of the day. The subconscious is looking for that feeling of a sweet connect now, rather than the 57 thoughts I needed to put together in the right order.

I will better my putting, my short game can be tuned up, but that's not about swing change.
