Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, I did search the threads but couldn't find anything.

Does anyone know any good golf stores around the Flint\Saginaw areas of Michigan?

I have googled up and found a few places, but its hard to tell if anywhere is good, so recommendations are appreciated.

I am visiting from the UK, so I'm not too familiar with the US golf store market.

Thanks!

If you have the time to come about 1 or 1-1/2 hours drive south I can point you to a few. Golfsmith, Carl's Golfland, etc.

Nevada Bob's in Rochester Hills is worth a look. If you could get over to Bloomfield Hills Carl's Golfland is probably the best.

King Par in Flushing (just outside of Flint) is one of the better proshops in MI. Large selection, you can hit anything you want and prices are extremely competitive. It is also the home of Orlimar Golf etc.

Thanks for all the advice guys.

So far I have checked out Golfsmith in Troy, which was pretty impressive.

I also got myself in the merchandise tent at the Buick open. More expensive than the other places, but I got some nice stuff.

I've also checked out a couple of golf sections in places like Dicks and The Sports Authority, which were so-so.

    • Have posted in a while or practiced for that matter. Dealing with a few medical issues. But I was able to practice and film today. I’ve played 5 times this year. Misses have been pulls or heavy shots. I feel this has a lot to do with my lower back issues. When I feel good, I get good rotation and I hit the ball well. Today I felt good. Hips and lower back felt nice and flexible. I worked mainly on the hands feeling from the top. The club head should feel like it’s going down and away from the ball and target at the start of the downswing. The right knee should stay a little flexed at the top. These are the only swing thoughts other than high hands (arms going up) I’ve been focused on. I did PW, 6 iron and Driver today. Here is PW. The hands look better as does the knee in the rehearsal. The knee gets more straight in the actual swing.   My left arm is not straight at impact, which it has never really been. But that’s not the focus of this practice.   6 iron looks better than last time. Driver also looks better than last time. Playing tomorrow. Hopefully my body will cooperate.

    • The way to practice this is not at full speed, even if you do manage to "change" something. But no, not quite like that. That's a late lift, but you still have the early roll, and you stand up too much in that swing (likely in trying to "lift" — the "lift" is relative to your torso, not the ground).
