Having trouble with your short game? I was just taught that if you swing your wedge just like you would swing a water hose it would help. It actually works, my short game has improved amazingly!

How exactly do you swing a water hose. I've never had the need to do so. At least I don't think I have.

Tools of my game:
Burner 09' Driver 10.5 Reg flex
5-pw G10's/ plus Taylormade R7 4 iron
Burner 08' 4 Hybrid
A70S 3 Hybrid Burner 09' 3 wood "Zing" SW 56 degree Fastback Laser range finder / plus Skycaddie SG5...also a great ball retriever!!

swing a hose? I can only drag one across the yard to water new trees.

My swing thoughts:

- Negative thinking hurts more than negative swinging.
- I let my swing balance me.
- Full extension back and through to the target. - I swing under not around my body. - My club must not twist in my swing. - Keep a soft left knee

ummmm swinging hoses
not to sure about that lol.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

sorry mate but i dont really know how to swing a hose. Dont think its that normal.

If I hit it right, it's a slice. If I hit it left, it's a hook. If I hit it straight, it's a miracle.

So we got funny guys. All i meant is you need to be nice and loose on your back swing! If you were to swing a hose it would be loose but ready to hit the ball on the follow through! Dont be stiff!

I dont think anyone got that you meant to swing loose.

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
