Hello, it's great to see a solid community of golfers. 
I'm a fairly new golfer, been playing on and off occasionally over some years, but very inexperienced and looking to learn as much as possible, improve my game and get out golfing more often.

I look forward to reading through some of the topics here to learn and understand more.

 

Thank you

Welcome! I’m one of the pros at Lake Padden in Bellingham. Where do you mostly play? Were you able to get out during our recent warm weather spell?

Hey, thank you! I wasn't able to get any rounds in but I did go hit some balls at Lake Padden on Saturday morning. It's great to see the nice weather starting to show up.
I have yet to play at Lake Padden, I look forward to playing there, it looks like a very nice course. So far I've only played at Raspberry Ridge in Whatcom County.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
