Well, I decided to see what my swing looked like at this point, and so I ended up getting a low quality video (sorry, cell phone camera was all I had available at the time). Anyway, I guess as some background I picked up the game around May, had to pretty much stop completely for a few months during the summer for school and the time for it has been kind of off and on since August. I'm a lefty but for whatever reason I feel more comfortable swinging right handed. I feel like I'm retarded with a left handed club in my hand. Unfortunately it's been pretty cold recently and I always forget to take any video when I do manage to go to the range so all I have at the moment is some short clips indoors. I'm going to start working with a pro in January to fix all of my flaws but wanted to get an idea from some people here what I should work on in the mean time. The weather is supposed to warm up next week for a little and I'll try to get some new video with an actual camcorder if it does, but for the moment this is all I have. Anyway, I'm sure the pro will rip my swing to shreds once I get there so go ahead and let me have it.

The link works on my computers, not sure why the youtube tags don't work. I don't know what is going on with this thing.

    • Phillyk is very close by. Ok, I understand how the watch and tags are meant to be used, but I was just curious how it actually works. I can't really think of any other way than what I mentioned above. No worries. If it works it works. I'll probably pick one up. My co-worker mentioned a free app called 18 Birdies which offers similar services. However I personally do not like keeping my phone in my pocket while golfing, nor do I want to be clicking around on the phone while out on the course. I toss my phone in my bag and leave it there until I am done golfing. Tapping a club head to a watch seems wat more convenient.  
    • Yes, but not always the case. IMHO, green speeds are a huge variable and can effect score variation from week to week or month to month significantly. Our own course that is running at about 8-9 depending on the week/day, can run up to 12 (no kidding) in peak months around certain event, and most like me score 3-4 shots higher on an average, missing a lot of 3-4 footers. There are any PCC adjustments that I am aware of. Have you every played their course? I am betting $20 you will find some answers if you haven't already.

    • I would recommend spending some time at the range and film your swing. You can post it in the Member Swings thread. At the range, you can figure out how to control the driver a bit more. We can offer some pointers once you post in the Member Swings section.
    • With the H4 or the watch, you tag the club before hitting by putting the tag next to the device. The tag is on the club butt end. After a round, you don’t really think about it too much. You just do it. I don’t know how far you are from @phillyk, but he may know an instructor in your area.
