Just something my buddies and I were discussing over a couple beers. If golf were like baseball where you got to pick your own walk up music when you come to the tee, what would your song be? I always joke that mine would be Coming Undone by Korn.

Theme song from "What's Happening?" TV show.

I once read that Bobby Jones, "the squire himself," once said that you should hear a song in your head to help establish a good rhythm.  Then my addled brain immediately thought of this and I can't stop.

I've always thought "Going the Distance" by Cake would be great walk up music.

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

Britney Spears have songs that are very appropriate:

(You Drive Me) Crazy

[Hit Me] Baby One More Time

On a second thought, maybe the second one is bad omen...

When I think of walk up music it has to be where the opening riff of the song is instantly recognized, profound and high energy. So The Blue Danube would not work even though it is one of the most beautiful pieces ever written. So for classical pieces, Beethoven’s 5th intro or The William Tell Overture would work.

Same for Rock. It has to grab the listener. Lots of songs by AC/DC have great power intros with my two favs being Back in Black and Highway to Hell. When my iPod turns on in my car, it always starts with the first song, AC/DC’s Shoot to Thrill, because they are alphabetically first on the list and it was the first song loaded. So I may pick that one too. 
 

Rock has so many songs that have great power intros, their are too many to name.

Shoot To Thrill is one of my favorites by those guys. I think T.N.T. Would be another good one.

      Day 105: mirror work today. Focused on not looping my hands at the top of the swing. Straight down.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Still working on the backswing a bit. Hand still gets away from the body, out towards the ball, and at A2 the club wants to roll over and get flat at A3. It's just very difficult to shallow from that position like I want. Which makes my downswing work impossible.  Backswing I have been playing around with the left leg straightening to start the backswing. It's like, a slight shove of the hips right with the left leg. Then just keep the flex in the right knee as I turn into it. I kind of like it. I never had a good swing trigger. It helps keep my left knee extended.  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path is traveling down the feet line, and straight up. A little bit of wrist rotation, and a lot more hinge sooner in the right wrist and elbow. I am trying to get the feeling that the arm hinging up then is the cause for the right shoulder to retract to finish the backswing. Club feels much more vertical at A3. I am trying to have my wrist fully hinged by then.  Feel the club and arms stop at A3.5 (my A4). If my arm collapses late, then I turn into that and I am pretty much screwed. The club and arms kind of have a floaty feeling, where they are just suspended in air for a bit, then drop.  Downswing I have been trying to think of a good visual for this mentally. I like the idea of my hands taking a wide arc to my right pocket, or I am taking the back of the hosel and trying to hit the ground behind my right foot.    Left knee stuff, just sooner.

      Day 2 (10 Mar 26) - Worked on weight shift feel using slap stick drill (hands about 6” apart - coming back weight on trail foot - down - thru weight on lead foot….moved it to hitting chips w/9i playing what I call “leap frog” - hit 1st about 10yds, the next a couple past the 1st, for about 6 balls total.  Love it as the lies change, the distances vary making each swing slightly different.
