Hi all. I just came across this sight somewhat accidentally. I am a dentist in the midwest. I started golfing at age 10 and then quit due to other interests and obligations about age 20-21. Fortunately I rediscovered golf ~15 years later. In hindsight I sure wish I didn't have that long layoff!

Just joined today and wanted to say hi, and of course let all the forum folks know I USED to be a Corporate Recruiter at a very large High Technology OEM but got laid off in April 09. Anyways...it actually helps to know that I'm not the only one that got sucked up by this lousy economy. Oh well...sure leaves plenty of time for GOLF!

Hi Everyone, I just found this site and had to join! I'm a project manager in the custom electronics business but I wish I could play golf for a living...I picked up the game about 5 years ago and the last 2 seasons and now into this one I've become a total addict!

I was in logistics/beverage distribution for 11 years with the same company. Now I have one of those lovely dofer jobs. (It ain't my field or even something that I like, but it will do fer now.)

I mix compounds for a polymer compounding company. It is just as exciting as it sounds, let me tell you. I take large bags of powder and mix them with other large bags of powder in a giant mixer/heater. On the up side, I am getting back in shape with this job. I have lost 30lbs and 6 inches off my waist since I have started this job.

Y'all take care!

    • I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉 
    • Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.    
    • I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
