Maybe someday we will get together and play a round (or two)

I work in Bella Vista, home of too much golf. I'm a beginning golfer, just learning the ropes. I've just joined the men's 9-Hole Evening league, so if you are there maybe I'll get to meet you then.

My wife and I travel too much for me to join any league..

But... My favorite course is the links course on Moberly in Bentonville. It's free to the people who live there, but most of them don't take advantage of it. There have been several times, on slow days, the guys in the pro shop didn't even bother charging me. Free golf is always good golf! I'm out of town this weekend, but I *think* I am home next weekend (5-17) Let me know if your interested in a game and I'll check with the wife and make sure we are not doing anything.

      Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I got two trips lined up this year.  First, Pinehurst next month. Qual Ridge, Mid Pins, Southern Pines 😁, Mid South, Talamore. I am looking forward to playing Southern Pines since it got redone.  Second, a trip to eastern Wisconsin in early August. Whistling Straights, Blackwolf Run, Erin Hills.

      3 Wood Shafts

      By saevel25 · Posted

      You are probably doing the right thing in having more fairway woods or hybrids in your bag than irons. Just easier to maximize ball speed for you swing speed to get the proper gaps.  A driver is teed up, so you have more leeway there. The 7-wood is probably more optimized for carry for you. A slower swing speed needs higher launch and spin to keep the ball in the air. With the 3-wood, it probably launches too low with not enough spin to keep it in the air.  If you are not going to go get lessons, or do some sort of swing speed training, go get fitted for clubs. Clearly your mix-match of equipment is not optimized.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      32 putts are average for a single digit handicap golfer. Limiting three putting is the biggest task. Speed control is the most important aspect of putting. Probably the 2nd most important is aim.  The putter is going to rotate open a bit on the backstroke. It might stay square to the arc of the putting stroke, but that does mean the face opens up a bit on the backstroke when measured against where the face is oriented at address. Go get a putter lesson as well.

      Keep us up to date with your findings, please.  I'm not looking for a putter, but I'm sure you're not alone in your venture to get the putts rolling better.
