Picked up 3 old clubs today. 8* Callaway War Bird. Thought Id try it out since it had the same shaft in as my driver. 8*s is new to me.
Also an old Adams Tight Lies strong 5 wood. Nothing fancy here. Just a nice dependable club if someone wants to use it.
The 3rd club was a Carbite 7 wood...
Over the years, I've found a few wallets which included cash, and credit cards. Turned those in at the front desk. One wallet had $900 cash in it. That one I got a receipt for.
Golf stuff just the usual stuff. Wedges, head covers. Found one GPS meter. All turned it.
Myself, I lost a really...
This was a swing for fence morning for me, and my four wedges. By that I mean I swung the clubs as fast as I could, while still staying in balance. Just wanted to see what I might be capable of. Also still trying out the new knee brace.
Although my horizontal dispersion suffered a little, most...
Not really a Rory fan, but this seems to be a well thought out decision on his part. Not one his usual shoot from the hip remarks. Good for him.
To me, recently his (new)views on the LIV tour, and Ryder Cup rule changes didnt seem like they would collide very well with the current policy board...
In my old age game bogey 1s are not a bad thing. Sometimes I even play for a bogey 1.
Obviously a par score is better, and what I strive for, but bogey 1s are a reality.
My biggest course management, scoring thought is "No 6s" on any hole.
Only if the PGAT lifts their suspensions against the LIV players. That might help viewership. That, and fewer commercial interruptions.
I sometimes think viewing audiences of today have so mich more to watch, that pro golf has lost a lot of its appeal. Myself I have over 300 channels...
Probably not. The folks who work at our local Dicks, are just sales people. If there's not a bar code to scan, they seem to be lost.
I once asked an employee a golf club question about the flex of a certain club. He referred me to Golf Galaxy up the street.
Tried something different this morning.
For decades, when I wanted to hit a lower flying, longer running shot, I would just play the ball back in my stance, and adjusted my swing. Most of the time this worked just fine.
However, every so often I would push the ball to the right, because the...
Not for me, unless Im deathly ill, or dead.
Some of my best rounds have been played when I was tired.
My biggest issue with desert golf is dehydration. That I solve by hydrating the day before I play.
Since I practice/play 4-5 times a week Im constantly drinking fluids
First off, I wish had the same problem.....sort of. I could use the extra yards.
Just a guess, as Im going off when I had the same problem, but it sounds like the OP is adding more loft to his irons at impact. My problem at the time was due to a casting problem in the down swing. I also also...
I would think that an instructor who doesn't know how, or wont work with the swing the student already has, might be someone to be avoided. Unless of course, if the student has no golf swing at all.
I don't believe in one method fits all when it comes to great golf instruction.
I also...
I just like hitting golf balls. I practice 3-4 days a week. Ive been playing 9 hole rounds twice a week. Im a junkie, and golf is my drug.
My clubs are old, and I have no plans to up grade anytime soon. I have bags of clubs I like to play. GI/SGI/ Hogan blades. I basically shoot the same...
To me, lie angles are similar to uneven lies, when compared to level ball lies.
Ball below the feet (toe down flatter) ball will tend to move more right, depending on the loft.
Ball above the feet (toe up, upright) ball will tend to more left, depending on the loft.
Then again, I might be...
I do my own grip changes these days. The only thing I try do is find blank grips with no alignment markings on them. That way I can just slide them on however I want.
Last road trip on the interstates, and Nevada two lane roads we averaged 48.1 mpg.. This while on 72 moh cruise control most of the time. (2200 rpms)
I think its broke in finally.
The ball is part of the equipment needed to play golf. Bag, balls, and clubs are all pieces of. equipment.
Everything else I consider accessories, since I don't need them to play.
This is my story and Im sticking to it.
Just a guess on my part, but your post mentioned you hit a copious amount of fat shots. Even with a grip change, hitting too many fatties will continue to cause soreness.
Perhaps just adjusting your swing a little, to pick the ball clean off the turf could help with the expense of replacing the...
