What condition my condition was in.

I got a "where have you been we miss you" sort of email from The Sand Trap the other day. I know it's auto-generated, but still a nice touch. I am on several other forums and don't remember getting such from them. 

I am fine and a good time was had by all, LOL. I have been a little busy with life this season, doing some home repairs, taking care of some family members, and have also been spending a bit of time on a couple of other long time hobbies. I have not played quite as much golf as I like, but I hope to catch up some in the fall.

I hope everyone is having a good year. I am gonna poke around and see what's up on The Sand Trap.

Well welcome back! Some good new stuff and the same ole discussions since you’ve been gone. Nutshell:

1. Slow play and Bryson DeChambeau a putz.

2. Distance and it’s effect on golf in general.

3. Tiger Woods of course.

4. Still people around who think you ‘ Drive for show and putt for dough.’

5. Still people who think Jack’s the GOAT. He’s not. It’s Tiger. 😀.

6. Brooks Koepka/Fed Ex Cup.

Yada yada....Cheers!

Poke around and, hopefully, stick around.  Good to see you again.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
