If I could only control my backswing length by the hour hand on a clock while doing all those other things.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Someone needs to read the posture thread :) 

Do PGA Tour players create notes on feels? I think Ben Hogan had journals on his golf swing so he could go back and look at them. I might be wrong, but I thought I read somewhere that Hogan did this. Maybe it was another golfer.

Wow, that's a mess, dude is lucky to lose that crap.

11am?

I have a friend who keeps all his swing notes written on the brim of his cap, seems silly to me.

So what's his swing thought?  Does he have a priority piece?  Hmmm... 

I found someones notes on the course the other day also.  They wrote it on the roof of the golf cart...   It read "That's the problem, you looked up"...

Poor guy.

Not only is there too many swing thoughts but it's shitty information. Double whammy.

My only swing thought is breath ---  Deep control breath - hold and exhale at address -   then grip it and rip it.  The less I think about my swing the better I play.  The more I think about what I should be doing the worse I play!

If that works for you, great, but most golfers should play with one swing thought or feel. A specific feel associated with their priority piece. They don't necessarily have to "think" about it when they're swinging but they should rehearse the move during their practice swing. Get a refresher on the "feel", then hit the shot.

To each his own I guess.  For good golfers - your body knows how to hit the shot. Commit to the shot you want to hit and hit it... don't let your brain get in the way.   

Even for poor golfers, the body knows how to hit the shot -- it's just not the shot they imagined. :-O

And Yes, don't let the brain interfere...

    • Day 139- Slow, swings with short practice club. 
    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
