Haha, well I was pretty sure my grip strength was not good and I was right. Got my gripx today and I was 116lbs right hand and 103lbs left hand. I’ve always figured I get good speed despite my poor strength. I get 175-180 ball speed normally.

Got my pair the other day and took them downtown for the first time today. It's a bit thicker than I thought it was going to be, as you might see here. It's orange and my grip is red, but… I didn't care to adjust the color balance enough to show it as such.

I ordered this.  Should be here today. I also got the dynamometer. I got 105 for the left and 109 for the right. This is at the top for my age per this chart. But I’d like to improve it.

Got my right hand to 133lbs today. Didn’t test the left. Was messing with employees at my course to see what they were at, and I was surprised. Didn’t think I would be the highest.

It came yesterday and I will try it today. The protocol doesn’t mention how many times a week to do this. I assume three times a week. Maybe I missed it.

      Now you may not agree with these but once you get the speed dialed, super fast, true rolling greens yield a lot more holed putts from 10-15 feet range = birdies. Also, the rough wasn't terribly penal. On a separate note, it seemed Berger tried to cash in on his lead. Didn't play bad or anything but you could tell dude had already blown his load the first two days. And then Akshay stepped up. I mean the dart for the eagle was ridiculous.  Fun watch in a long time.

      Day 1 (9 Mar 26) - starting up again with a week layoff due to travels.  Played with the men’s group for the Monday shootout.  Was good to play, had some rust especially the long game, especially getting proper weight shift.

      Day 204 3-9 Wrist arch through downswing and getting wider with backswing. Need to continue working on getting trail arm "reconnected" as it still seems a bit off with wider backswing.

      Saw these today, this is a scam.  Joined in 2026.  Click his name and then his profile.  2 posts, no friends, one item for sale.  These clubs are probably takes from Temu. Facebook

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Range again today. A few freezers and a few smoothies. If I add a little speed I swing further arms go deeper and lower and more across again. Really like where this freezer got to on backswing:   This is a smoothie (ish). Clubhead tracks up the hands nicely but the things go a bit wrong: At normal speed: Lastly one shortish pitch shot. Pitching some days I come out and can drop it on the flag. Other days it’s going sideways. Like missing right or left by 10 yards from 50 yards and nothing in between. I suspect it’s from the hands coming out and the cut across. If I release it on that line it’s going left. If I hold it off it’s going right and then it’s timing. When it’s off it’s off. Feels like if I can get that under control it will tighten up a lot.
