  1. Maybe I'm overestimating this type of golfer, but I don't buy that. Unless the motivation is something other than simply golfing (drinking beer with friends out on a golf course, for example), once/week should be enough to improve to that level even with swing flaws.
  2. Played a round today focusing on keeping my stance shoulder width: pleased with the results overall as contact was more consistently crisp with significantly fewer push/pulls. Ball flight with my woods switched from draw to fade, but I'm guessing that's something that will work itself out with more time.
  3. I think we need to redefine weekend golfer. Someone who consistently goes out once every weekend should be able to break 100 consistently. The average golfer who plays on the weekend likely doesn't play anywhere close to once per week. Those are the ones who I would expect to be well into the triple digits.
  4. Thanks for the response! All of my woods are included in that clip: starts with the driver, then progresses to the 3-wood & 5-wood. I do notice that my stance has a tendency to widen. I'll make narrowing it a point of emphasis the next time I go to the range. Thinking about it, that's likely the reason my ball position is so far back in my stance - weight stays too far right and it's a compensation that allows me to strike it decently. I play my irons much further back than that for likely the same reason.
  5. I've been Playing Golf for: ~10 years with some summers containing few rounds, others at a more once/weekend pace, and everything in between. My current handicap index or average score is: 16.0 My typical ball flight is: Typically my ball flight is either straight or has some draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Pushes/pulls are my most prevalent issue. Will hit shots thin at times. It's been a while since I've posted on the forum; I stumbled back onto it a couple of weeks ago. I've been playing more golf this summer than I have in a number of years. This is my first attempt at filming my swing. The footage from behind is from a week ago; the footage from the side is from this evening. I have never taken any formal lessons, making most of my adjustments on my own gradually. The problem area that I'm most cognizant of is my tendency to not clear my hips and leave my weight on my back foot. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks! Videos:

  7. Srixon makes a great tour ball if you're looking to spend that much. I haven't tried their mid level balls, but I can't imagine them being better than the NXT-Tour.
  8. I'd like to see either Casey, Furyk, or Stenson win.
  9. I'm a 19 handicap too, so I figure I'd give you my stats and you can compare if you'd like: Fairways: 45% GIR: 15% Putts/Hole: 1.84 Up/Down: 25.4% Sand Saves: 27.5% Distances: Driver: 230-260 range, with an occasional 275 blast 5 Iron: 180ish 7 Iron: 160ish 9 Iron: 135ish
  10. Any iron shot that lands and just stops on the green for a GIR. I also love hitting nice flop shots.
  11. I'd go Titleist. I haven't hit their irons before and I don't own a Scotty, but I love their woods and I plan to buy a couple of Vokey's eventually. I've been playing a Titleist driver since 2002 when I bought a 975J (which wasn't the best club for me at the time, but I learned to hit it well), and I haven't hit a different brand off the tee since.
  12. Yeah I understand completely, I would've walked out with a $75 Cameron too if I saw it in a store.
  13. I feel the same way. I have absolutely no need for a new putter, but I've been looking on ebay at used Cameron's
  14. Definitely Titleist, Mizuno would get consideration for their irons, but that's really the only thing close.
