So, how does cocaine change the swing weight?Ā 

For example if my irons are D0, how much cocaine does it take to make them D2???

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs.Ā 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.Ā

Golf clubs were a nice pick. ... To your average guy, golf clubs look like a potentially expensive item and they might be a little less apt to check them out.Ā 

Bet they got a lot of special sets through before that one got nabbed.

My guess is whatever you can get the cheapest. ... You need something that looks legit, but that's about it.

Drug dealers should put them in PXG irons. That way the stated worth of the goods won't seem that far off.

      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.Ā  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.Ā  Yea, definitely feeling the hand path isĀ 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.Ā  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.Ā  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 groundĀ behind my right foot. Ā Ā  Left knee stuff, just sooner.Ā

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