Happy Thanksgiving Everyone


Recommended Posts

While taking a break from food prep...I would like to wish everyone a happy, and safe, Thanksgiving.  When you boil it all down...it is our friends and family that are important.  Let's put aside our differences and revel, if only for a day, on the things we agree on.  In these trying times we need each other.  That we do not see, eye to eye, on every issue is beside the point.  Cheers to you all.

In der bag:
Cleveland Hi-Bore driver, Maltby 5 wood, Maltby hybrid, Maltby irons and wedges (23 to 50) Vokey 59/07, Cleveland Niblick (LH-42), and a Maltby mallet putter.                                                                                                                                                 "When the going gets tough...it's tough to get going."

On that we can agree!   Happy Thanksgiving to all that celebrate the day.

This was an odd thanksgiving. Dad in Assisted living with no visitors allowed, sister a nurse working with COVID patients and felt she is too much risk to visit and brother has COVID now so only my wife & I for dinner, we cooked enough for the whole family anyway, just do not know any other way.....But still thankful for much including our health, texts from friends, our jobs, and much else.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING  to all!

I signed up here after my son wanted to play a fall middle school golf league, and I was volunteered to be his team's lead marshal.  Now mind you, up to this point, my entire golf experience has been a local 9 hole public course around the airport that my coworkers and I basically hung out at after work to unwind, to shoot the bull, we never really played a round there (I haven't been there in 20 years), and whatever mini golf place my family would find while we were on vacation.  During the fall golf league season, we signed my son up for lessons from the local pro, and she insisted that I go hit balls too.  That got me started swinging, and I found out I enjoy the challenge, so I'm now signed up for lessons too.  If the weather is bad, I'll go down to my local indoor range, and hit balls for an hour or two.  I'm very much a beginner, but willing to learn.

    • Day 8: 12/17/2024 Okay I took my new PPJ swing thought to the range today. I wasn't sure I was quite ready to do so, but I'm glad I did.  When I got it right it was good... really good. When I got it wrong it was a major fail. I hit lots of really ugly ones. But I didn't let that deter me. I stayed committed and focused on the PPJ and I avoided any temptation to go back to what I was doing before just so that I could "look" better at the range. I'm pretty excited about what I saw when I got it right.  I hit the 6 iron mostly (nearly all block work today). I also hit about 6 balls each with the PW, 8I, 5W and Driver. Those had varying degrees of success. I did crack one drive that let me feel and see what the changes will look like once I get fully trained.  Anyway, I'm going to go back to the mirror work for a couple of more days before bringing it back to the range. I do feel like if I can get this right my swing will improve a lot. So I think its worth the effort. I liked the way it looked on GEARs when I get it right, and I like the results I got at the range when I got it right. Now the goal is to work towards getting it right more often. 
    • So I think it's that they can't just bend the shaft or hosel to get it to a new lie angle. They adjust that and it changes the weighting, so they have to then adjust all the weights to get it balanced again. I get the impression that it's a bit of an iterative process and they do it all in the US, so they're paying US labor costs to build it and make it work how it's supposed to. Whether you believe in the tech or not, I think that's a true statement.
    • Ah, the old EE in the backswing move. Chest going back and staying down doesn't help.
    • Extremely outward path with a very closed club face. Maybe unless you have a stupidly weak grip, like right hand way over top, I don't think the grip is necessary highly correlated to this.
