Hi Everyone!,

I wonder if there are some of you listen to music, audio books etc when you are working in the golf? I find myself on being able to hear the sound out of the hit because they give the response how to hit the ball. I think the times when you practice putting or chipping so I sometimes miss having something to listen to. What encourages you to headphones for the context? They're not supposed to destroy the swing.

What I first think of is the bluetooth hands free but there should be a pair of sensible wire too? Anyone who have any idea?

Jaybird bluebuds x. I use them all the time at the range, just keep the phone in your bag. Range is pretty strong indoors or partially covered, gets a bit worse outdoors, but probably has about 60 feet or so outdoors, maybe twice that indoors. They easily synch and have about 5 hours of battery life.

I checked them and they seem very good. However, the price tag is a little too high for me and was wondering if there are options for a lower price?

Then maybe they are my prejudices but like bluetooth guzzle battery power.

Get a belt clip for your mp3 player or phone, and just clip it to your belt behind your back. Then the cord wont get caught in your swing.

I feed the headphone cord under my shirt and just put my iPhone in my pocket. Never had any problems.

How do you do it? Do you take headphones behind your back? How do you make so they do not disturb you when to swing? I really want to know how you do that :)

If you don't like the cord against your skin, just wear an undershirt, and run the cord between the two shirts.

Put your phone or whatever in a pocket. Thread the cord up your shirt and pop it out through your neck hole.

I do this when I run, too.

This. Plug the headphones into my iPhone. Plug headphones into ears. Slide iPhone down the front of my shirt, over my undershirt. Pull it out the bottom of my shirt. Put iPhone in pocket. I guess it would be tougher if I were tucking my shirt in, but my driving range doesn't require it, so I don't.

Depends on the situation. Sometimes I use in-ear canal headphones, mostly not to disturb others. I don't mind the amplification of my bodily noises and moving. I wrap the cord around the smartphone until there is little slack.

Sometimes I just play whatever through the smartphone speakers.

Sometimes I use this, sans the Gangnam style:

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

      My Swing (billchao)

      By billchao ·

      Went to a PING fitting day today. Going to be ordering a G430 Max 3w with a 75g x-stiff shaft at 5w length and a 3h. I forget what my fitter did with the shaft on that but she told me she’s going to email the club the specs of everything. The 3w combination we found pretty quickly. As for the hybrid, we tried a bunch of different head and shaft combinations for that distance with mixed results. Then she handed me the 3h and I took three swings with it and knew it was the one.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      Yeah, this isn't sandbagging. It's outright cheating. He should be banned.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By billchao ·

      That’s quite a generalization. It’s clear that you don’t like water but there are plenty of us that drink it just fine. My daily intake is usually about 20oz of black coffee, 16oz of soda, 8oz of milk mixed into a protein shake, and anywhere between 30-60oz of water. It doesn’t even need to be cold and I kind of prefer it closer to room temperature than cold. I quite like the taste of tap water, with sole exception being the tap water at Magic Kingdom (it’s terrible). I can’t stand when people bring me tap water with a lemon wedge in it. I didn’t ask for lemon in my water.

      By billchao ·

      This is the part I don’t get. He’s not even kind of sandbagging, he’s blatantly doing it and submitting scores that are verified to be incorrect. How he’s not banned from competition is beyond me.

      One handed swing faster?

      By davidgolfman ·

      He's right in what he's saying.I also have done this experiment with a golf shaft swinging with one arm at a time.one arm at a time is for me very fast but both hands together are very slow ..I got my 17 year old son to do this experiment and he swung very fast with either hand and he swung very fast with both hands together..My conclusion up to now is ; I'm not using my wrists properly but I not a 100 percent sure just yet..I will keep trying to fathom this out .I'm a 12 handicap and my son is 3.9 at Westlancs..
