I only go to the gym when the weather is too crappy to play golf.

I hate going, it's kind of boring ... but I need to do something other than sit around & get fat :)

Thats a lot. You seen any improvments in your game? Phil Mickleson's lost a lot of weight too, looks good. x

3-4 times a week. At least 20 minutes of cardio each time I go. After cardio, I hit the weights for about 40-45 mins. And each day I mix in some different types of core training.

Um, no....... Not true. My handicap is the lowest it's been in my career. Just gotta get more consistent. And that's coming now.

Never worked out, unless walking the golf course and pressing a TV remote control are working out

3-4 Days a week lifting weights. I try to do some sort of cardio every day since I have an office job. Since I started back lifting weights (last December) I have noticed an improvement in my consistentency. My swing speed has increased as well.

Yes,

I workout everyday

sun: 2hrs soccer
mon: 4X400, stretch, Legs, Chest, Triceps, stretch, abs
tue: 6min bike, stretch, Delts, Back, Biceps, stretch, abs
wed: 3mile run, stretch, pull ups, max sit-ups in 2 minutes, dips, push ups
thu: 6min bike, stretch, Legs, Chest, Triceps, stretch, abs
fri: 4X400, stretch, Delts, Back Biceps, stretch, abs
sat: 3mile run, pull ups, max situps in 2 minutes, dips, pushups

Diet is also important. I eat a high protein moderate carbohydrate diet.

I do not think any of this exercise helps my golf game at all. From my experience when I keep my ball in play and my short game is on I play a lot better. In general it seems like CONSISTENCY and ACCURACY are the keys to golf.
In my bag:

Driver: R7 SuperQuad
Woods: RPM LP 3W & 5W
Irons: MX-25 4-SWPutter: Detour

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      You can try it with some lead tape first to see if it works for you.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
