First post, wanted to say I'm excited to join the site.  I've ben golfing for almost 20 years, basically learning on my own, I recently learned about using my iPhone for video and what a eye opener.   I look froward to starting my own swing thread and seeing what in the heck I've ingrained into my swing.   I've already learned a bunch of quality information from this site, looking for more.  I'm coming from about a 5-8 handicap, about 10 years ago, currently playing around a 12 but only playing about 2-4 Times a year.  This year I've joined my company league, comprised mostly of hackers...  It seems the more I've played the worst I've got.  I started' the season with a 39, 37 (we only play 9 holes). But now I'm up to mid 40's so a little discouraging.  Mostly ruin my round with the first 2-3 holes and then play well.   The course I'm playing is to me very difficult, lots of downhill, sidiehill lies, and I'm not comfortable playing this course,  Anyway hello, and looking forward to meeting some knowledgeable folks that can help out.  At this point I would say I'm committed, to the point I'll probably sign up for revolver at some point, I want to get back to where I left off, which is basically chipping and putting.  Currently, my full swing needs some help as well!

Welcome to TST. I'm use Evolvr and find it to be very good. I'm not the best a filming my swing mostly from a lack of patience, phone overheats from the Florida sun, can't see the screen very well, my editing sucks, yada yada. But that's all on me. Definitely make a swing thread as there are some damn good instructors here that will get you on track. Again welcome to TST and take a look around. Cheers.

Yes, meant to say Hello not , well you know.  Thanks for the warm welcome.  I'll look and see if you guys have swing threads, I already went through all of boogilicious's and it was a good read, lots of hard work there.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
