So I'm wondering what people would recommend for courses in the
Nor-Cal / San Francisco Bay Area. I life in SFC.

I personally play Monarch Bay San Leandro and The Met in Oakland.

I like longer courses (7000+ from the blacks or tips) and fast greens.

Any other recommendations?

You're in the city, otherwise I would have other recommendations for you - I'm in the Peninsula and I play courses in the South Bay and Peninsula - Stanford is my home course, but if I wander, I go to mostly Cinnabar Hills and Palo Alto Municipal. Rarely, I'll go to Shoreline Golf Links if the geese are not there.

    • Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.
    • It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.
    • It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.
    • I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
