Thanks, it was a pretty big hit I took, I went from being crouched over, head down to having my back and legs parallel to the ground 3-4 feet up. How's your ankle doing? I hope everything is going well with physical therapy and the recovery. Can you play golf or do anything golf related with the injury?

Just chip and putt at this point. Tried two full swings today. Just really hesitant to get through impact and over to the left. Quite tender. I'll try a few more swings in a few weeks or so...

Sorry to hear about the injury, expecially since I know how it feel when you are not able to play golf due to an injury. I had a head injury my freshman year of high school in May just as the weather was finally starting to get better. I felt like I could play, but my doctor told me the most he wanted me doing was putting. It was horrible spending all day on the putting green as I watched all of my friends play. I was finally released to play though and as soon as my full swing came back I was able to outplay almost all of my friends.

Just hang in and keep working on the short game.

Its official. I went to my surgeon's this morning for a checkup and some Xrays. I'm 100%. I'm allowed to walk, run, bike, and most importantly, GOLF! What was initially slated as a nine month road to recovery, took me only nine weeks. I am still going to physical therapy as I don't have full range of motion or strength back, but, I'm pretty close.

I took some pictures of my Xrays this time. You can see the extent of what I've got in there. My surgeon says he'd want to take out the plate, but only in the instance where I want to due to discomfort. Haven't experienced anything like that yet, but, I don't really know what "discomfort" would feel like.

Even though your doctor says you can golf, are you still going to take it a little easy? Maybe even play like a short 9 hole course with a cart. I'm sure that will be still great for you.

I bet it killed you to see your clubs and then knowing you couldn't golf?

He said I can play as hard as I want. But it is still a bit tender, so yes, I will take it a little bit easy on the thing. And I will definitley be in a cart. I am scheduling my first come-back tournament for June 30th. I few Mondays away.

Great to hear! Now the biggest challenge: "Can you still keep your handicap where it was?"

or better yet: "Can you still golf?"

Good luck. If I could somehow get to a scratch player I'd be satisfied, lol. I've only been playing for two years so I still have a chance.

Too bad it's the first Monday of my summer job, otherwise I'd offer to caddy

Seriously, welcome back off the disabled list. I'm very glad to hear of your recovery!

Thanks for the well wishes everyone.

You'll all be happy (or jealous) to know that I played 18 today and shot 4 over. Felt like I had very little control of my shots, was just kinda taking wild swings. But all that putting and chipping practice really paid off. It's like I didn't even skip a beat with that stuff.

Dude that's awesome. The injury may have turned out well for you, since that long game is coming back under control before too long.

      By MiuraMan ·

      A little refresher. here is an article about Bryson at the 2021 Ryder Cup. He was the "entertainer" then. "Wherever he went the crowd welcomed him like a Packer walking into an Oshkosh bar, and DeChambeau responded with nods and thumbs-up and cap-tips and shouts of “Let’s go!” On the sixth, when the crowd began to boo when he grabbed his 3-wood, Bryson loudly proclaimed, “Guys, I’m still going for the green, calm down,” which dialed the cheers back to 10. Spectacle recognizes spectacle, after all. On this afternoon, one would have had a hell of a time explaining to an outsider that he was the most divisive guy in golf."   Ryder Cup 2021: How Bryson DeChambeau won the week, and found redemption, after summer from hell | Golf News and Tour Information | Golf Digest No American had more questions entering the Ryder Cup than DeChambeau. By Sunday evening, he answered them all and looked, at long last, like he was enjoying golf again.

      Launch Angle With Driver

      By StKildaSenators ·

      So I have been hitting my driver a lot better this year. Massive slice is gone (unless I try and kill the ball, which I avoid doing now), and a bad drive is now more of a big fade. However my launch angle is pretty low. I went to a range with TopTracer today, and when I was using my driver I was probably averaging about 5 or 6 degrees launch angle. Unfortunately the only stat I can see on the app is that for the long drive game I averaged 251 yards, so I don't have any other numbers.    What are some of the likely causes of having such a low launch angle? I am thinking I am either hitting down on the ball, or the ball is too far forward in my stance and I am catching it a little thin (while I don't feel like I hit consistently thin, a thin miss is definitely more common than a pop-up miss.    I play the ball off my front foot big toe. Is that not a good spot? Could I be standing too close to the ball? It isn't uncommon for me to hit one a little bit with the heel, but I basically never feel I hit one of the toe.

      Conjecture.  This sounds like you’re just making up the excuse to not like him even more.

      Oh yes I agree. I’m not saying he did his media stuff for that reason, I’m just speculating that maybe he hopes that happens. BD obviously loves competition and fans, which he’s really not getting with LIV.
