Must you taunt?  How about going out and hit some golf balls instead

So I've been trying to stop picking since I got back into golf about 10 weeks ago and can't seem to break that habit. I went to the range this morning and noticed during my backswing I appeared to be lifting up a little. Also on the downswing my weight stayed back a little or drifted towards my toes.

Spent about 10 minutes just trying to swing balanced and to keep a firm right (I'm left handed) wrist through impact. I started hitting it pretty well and taking a modest divot with most clubs below 3 iron. I just had to try this out on the golf course so off I went. Some mixed results with some bad shots still showing up here and there (hooks when I didn't focus on my right wrist being firm). I ended up shooting 78 (39-39) which could have been even better had I putted better.

Am I cured? Dunno but for those struggling with flipping, check your balance throughout the swing. Maybe you're missing an obvious flaw.

      Last (Golf) Thing You Bought?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      I had a few tweeks in the bag. I took out my Mizuno pro FliHi 3 iron replaced it with a Titleist GT2 7 Wood. what a change that is, so easy to hit, it goes so high without it ballooning on me. I couldn't get rid of my callaway woods ( Rogue ST Max LS ) but changed the shafts to Diamana BB 63 stiff for the driver and 73 stiff for the 3 wood. Than i got myself a new putter Odyssey S2S jailbird yes i joined the centershaft family

      Are You "Loyal" to One Golf Ball?

      By tomvk77 · Posted

      First off all i think you should use the same ball all the time. We all strive for consistency on the course, the only factor you can be sure it will be always the same is your ball if you always use the same. So i think we should always use the same. I recently switched from Titleist Pro V1x to Srixon Z-Star Diamond because it i get a bit softer feel around the greens and same results on driver and irons
