I'm getting married in October and need an idea for a quick honeymoon that won't bust my small bank account. Where are some good places to go? The wedding is in Georgia and i'm only figuring on a three or four day honeymoon because of work commitments, so the destination has to be fairly close to Georgia so we don't spend all our time traveling. Unfortunately, no time for golf either, so don't use that as a consideration. We live in Florida so beaches are not really a big factor either. Where do I go?

I went to Las Vegas for 4 days. It was a blast. I know you said somewhere close but a flight is probably only 3-5 hours.

Where in Georgia will you be? Some place like St Simon's Island or Hilton Head would be nice. Savannah is always quite pretty, as is Charleston. For something away from the beach, have you considered renting a cabin up in north Georgia? For a little more touristy stuff, there's Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN (think Panama City sans beach). Asheville, NC is also quite nice as you could book one of The Biltmore's packages and tour the vineyard/winery as well as The Biltmore itself (impressive and romantic). Similarly, just north of Atlanta is Chateau Elan which has a winery, spa and a pretty good golf course if you can sneak a round in.

I second the biltmore. My wife and I stayed there for our 1st anniversary and I love that place. It is really exceptional in the fall also.

Seabrook and Kiawah Island in SC. I had a family reunion in Seabrook a few years ago and had a great time. They are both right next to each other, and maybe 30-45 min outside Savannah, GA.

      When does a 'non-conforming' club become just another piece of metal or plastic?

      My Swing (Retoid)

      By retoid · Posted

      This is my second year playing golf, I started last season but have always struggled with a slice. I've tried multiple things to try and fix the slice: Closing the face. Rotating my right hand out or clockwise in the grip. Keeping the club head low in my back swing. Focusing on a straight swing path. Trying the straighter arms like Bryson D. (as seen in the videos above) Trying to not let me hips get too far ahead of my down swing. Trying to keep my shoulders down until after I've made contact with the ball. Etc. I recently changed to the straighter arms which has helped me adjust away from such a drastic slice. So it has helped a bit. Before that, I was trying to keep the club head low in the back swing and this was the most helpful in correcting the slice, however it drastically removed power and distance in the strikes and would even sometimes result in a hook. About a couple months ago I had a single lesson with my driver and learned some helpful things, but have since struggled to perform what I learned well. One of the things in the lesson was to keep my shoulder down more in the the down swing until after making contact with the ball. This would help the slice a bit, sometimes drawing the ball. To even it out, I was instructed to rotate my hips a bit earlier in the down swing. What I have noticed however with the earlier hip rotation is that it's really hurting my lower back a lot. Since backing off on that it's helped not injure my low back as much. I believe my main issue might possibly be the swing path, being a Pull Slice.   See above, was mid typing when you posted. I have never watched Moe Norman's swing to be honest. I have never measure my hip rotation, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on that after you read about my hip rotation / back pain issue.

      Two questions… Are you trying to swing like Moe Norman? What's your hip turn like? Have you ever measured it?
