Ok so I have been playing for a little over two years. I have played a decent amount of courses and consider myself and advanced beginner
I have got a few aces and can RHBH it 330-350ft on average with sometimes further sometimes i shank it as well though.
But I recently noticed I drag my left foot on my drives. I do it so much that there is a hole in my shoe now and a little road rash on my foot in that spot.
That is why I noticed it. Anyone else ever do this?

Anything for a post.
Where exactly is this hole in your shoe? I drag big time on RHFH drives. The side of my shoe around my big toe on the right foot. I haven't noticed any dragging on my RHBH throw.
I drag my foot (right foot, LHBH throw) on my follow through. Helps keep me from spinning too much and falling off the teepad. I can already see the wear on my shoes, and I've only been playing a few months.
Yep, I didn't know I did it either until I saw the wear pattern on the inside of my left shoe!
... I try to be conscious of not dragging my left because that impedes a clean release on drives. I still do it from time to time though. I think most of my wear is from the initial push-off and weight transfer on my X-Step.
