I might consider it. I'd love to see some reviews first, but then I guess you don't get the early bird.

Oh, he said along the fairway so I guess I thought that's where they were.

That would be really annoying if the course didn't define them as GUR or NPZ. Otherwise you could split the fairway and be screwed by a distance marker, on any hole? Extremely lame.

The only time I would argue it may not be stealing is an end-of-the-day twilight scenario. At my regular course you can only book 9 after a certain time in the afternoon but during the summer you can absolutely squeeze in 18. They don’t call it twilight specifically but that’s what it is. Sounds like that isn’t the case here, though.

Wow, I thought the ending was pretty exciting. I'm not going to debate someone else's feelings but I would definitely disagree with those saying it wasn't. Phil was obviously playing well but he was by no means "automatic" and there were plenty of ways there could've been a two stroke swing in those last two holes.

Are they trying to get people to WANT to play the course with that video? It kind of gives me a sense of dread...

When I belonged to a private club for a few years it was included. Now that I’m not, it seems to be $50 everywhere I’ve checked, whether you get it online or in person. It also seems that all of the online options correspond to a physical club/course here in NH. I kept it for a couple years after leaving the private club but let it lapse the past few years. If there are other benefits, beyond a publication they send out, I’m not aware of them. I’m trying to decide if I want to re-establish a HC. I’ve gotta do some reading on the changes with the WHS if I do.

Wow, I know I'm waaay late to the party but I just had a chance to start checking out the daily practice plan challenge. What a treasure trove and an excellent reference. Well done; I subscribed on the spot. 👍

This messed me up good, but there's really no one to blame but myself as I was trying to do things without an instructor.

I could be wrong but I don't think keeping your head "still" was part of S&T, or any reasonable golf swing instruction. It's obviously gotta move/turn/tilt to some degree, it just shouldn't be moving laterally a whole lot.

I don't doubt that, certainly not trying to knock S&T or the site, I just remember it being brought up and recommended a lot is all. 🙂 Perhaps it was a blip in the overall history of the site, but it was prevalent when I joined. Makes sense. I remember it was often said that many (all?) good golfers used pieces of S&T without have a specifically "S&T swing." 5SK made more sense to me, in that rather than calling something good golfers are already doing part of a new specific swing theory, it identifies those things and explains why they're important.

Am I crazy? Stack and tilt was all the rage around here back then (2010-ish)! I have the book to prove it. 😂

I’ve been mostly away from the site for a few years since I really got into fishing. This year I want to play more golf and get back into it a bit. When I first joined the site, it was (seemingly) all about Stack and Tilt. That fell out of favor, as I recall. Later, there were the 5 Simple Keys. I remember reading a lot about weight forward, feet flared out, deep hands, and probably a lot more I’m not thinking of right now. I’m curious - has much changed in the past few years? Have there been any interesting discoveries or changes to what was thought to be best practice? Concepts that have been abandoned over time? I’m not looking for advice or swing thoughts, I was really just wondering what the general current thinking is. Thanks!

Hell no. First, I’m not a very good golfer, and second, one injury from so many attempts and you’re done for.
