Good to have you hear Tony. I have to say after reading about your product here at TST I didnt even bother trying to review it. I purchased one from one of my favorite online golf retailers. (Not sure if I should post the name as it's not a sponsor) But it should arrive tomorrow and Im looking forward to trying it out.

Hey Ron.....awesome! We have quite a few on-line affiliates representing Golflexx. It's a great tool, simple to use and should be used throughout the year to keep those "pesky" muscles limber. It's amazing how stiff we get as we creep up in age but that doesn't mean you have to wait until your a senior to stretch. We've got thousands in use by PGA and LPGA members, golf instructors and golfers like you and I.....the ones who just love to play. In fact, we have a nice following of folks who don't golf at all but use Golflexx to stay flexible. Please let me know directly if you have any questions with our product. I'm happy to help anytime!

Stretch it out!

Got mine and so far worth every penny. I think this thing works as advertised. The only complaint, and it's a small complaint probably user error, but my thumbs get sore using it. That may go away over time.

Well Done

I mention that on my review the thumbs do notice the work out. But maybe stronger thumbs is a side benefit

I have one and liking it so far. Mine is a medium and I have to resist the urge to overbend it but I think that is a good thing. It makes me relax and stretch, two things I need.

Cool! Stronger thumbs might make me better at Madden and Tiger Woods on Playstation 3!

Thumb strengthening while using Golflexx creates faster texting! (kidding).

Our specific grip instruction and thumb / finger placement is meant to keep users from over-flexing their Golflexx. During the R&D; process we handed Golflexx units out to between 15 and 20 PGA professionals at a local tournament here in Oregon, the Jeld Wen Tournament, where Golflexx sponsored a booth. During that time we took advice from many pro's who tried Golflexx out on the range. It was an awesome day as we watched some very big names using our product. It was suggested that thumb placement should be specifically put on the grip as such allowing the user to get maximum benefit from the pre-loading process. Our spokes person Dr. Donald Fox agreed.

You can, however, hold the ends with your thumbs wrapped around the grips once you get used to your flex limit. There are several recommended exercises that require your thumbs to be on the grips as per the instructional DVD but adjust them according to your comfort level, just don't flex more then the apprx. 6 degree limit. Keep in mind pre-loading your unit is meant for stretching and not so much for strength training although you will get some benefit to strengthening the muscles used.

Hope that helps and thank you all for your input and support.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By billchao ·

      It seems like too much work for me. I'm actually surprised at myself for spending as much time on this as I already have. Shot Scope tells me my shots to finish with a 7i is 0.1 better than with my 50 or 55 so I'm just going to go with it. Actually, I tend to be the complete opposite. I've never faced a shot I'm convinced I can't hit. It leads to great heroics and complete flops. Conservative for me might just be someone else's normal.

      Future Pro: Miles Russell Age 15

      And like Matt said, and I have hinted at… it's ONE ROUND. Because you have to get hot. Better players than him failed to get through. And… Peaked too soon, perhaps. He could also get injured, get surpassed, lose interest or lose his game… Again, if I trusted y'all to uphold the bet, and if the bet wasn't basically a 15-year proposition… I'd bet y'all. The odds are against him, and heavily so. So… he didn't qualify, and he's playing on a sponsor's exemption. Jordan Spieth was 16 years old when he tied for 16th in a PGA Tour event… and I realize that mentioning Jordan Spieth (who has obviously had a lot of success) seems to argue against my point, but Spieth is the exception and he did better at only a year older than this fella. The odds are strongly against him.

      He shot -5 with a bogey on the last hole. Those Monday Q events are seriously tough to get through. Lots of very very good players play in those, including normally a fair few tour players who've lost their cards, including past winners. It is a small sample size, but he also just broke one of Tiger's records (youngest ever to be ranked one in AJGA if memory serves). He's the best 15 year old in the world at the moment. He's also pretty small and skinny - if he grows and fills out a bit and gets stronger, he could be a serious force to be reckoned with. He may of course also go off the boil and struggle or his swing may not last his growth or something, so it's not like he's odds on to make it or anything like that. I think it will be interesting to see how he progresses and if (big if granted) he progresses well, then he will be quite the prospect.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By Ty_Webb ·

      At a basic level, you can take those strokes gained numbers and if you know what the baseline strokes to hole out is from each distance, you can figure out how many strokes on average you will take to hole out from any given spot on the golf course. Then you can take that shot zone thing from shotscope and put it down there and see what the average is for each club and each target you choose. That's not exactly trivial to do though even with a computer, so the strategy guides (like LSW) use rules of thumb to make those decisions easier for you to make on the fly. Most of the time you'll come up with the optimal strategy and on the odd occasion when you don't, the strategy you come up with will be pretty darn close to optimal. If you're anything like me, then you'll probably wind up being a little too conservative with both club choice and target. Fear of penalty strokes can make you play suboptimally. Basically it's a bad idea to base your strategy on a shot that might pop up less than 1 in 20 times. If you happen to hit that shot, then today just isn't your day, but the 19 times you don't, you'll be in that much better of a spot.
