anyone else here watch rugby or the all blacks.

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

Apparently France made good use of the driving maul? Didn't see the game so can't be sure, is this true?
Clever of France because it keeps the All Blacks out of open play, which is where they are strong.

I'm watching the Lions game right now. The South Africa test series should be interesting.

yea the french forwards were playing really good creating alot of turnovers.

Yes the lions games verse south africa should be good although i think south africa will be to strong for them.

I'm not sure SA will be too strong, although they might be too cohesive.

In terms of talent the Lions are very strong, but these guys don't play with each other all the time so the team unity isn't always there. We will find out tomorrow!

I've stopped watching the All Blacks until Luke McAlister goes away. The fact he's back in the team is a joke, he was rubbish before he left and never deserved to be brought back into the team. Serves Henry right losing to France after that debacle.

I really don't see good things in the future for NZ rugby. Our depth is terrible right now, McCaw, Carter and Williams get hurt and we end up with a team full of nobodies and guys who should never get anywhere near an All Blacks jersey. C'mon, Cory Jane starting on the Wing? You gotta be kidding me.

    • When does a 'non-conforming' club become just another piece of metal or plastic?
    • Day 353: mirror work again today. Working on the same stuff - wrist twist and shaft lean. 
    • 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?
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years My current handicap index or average score is: 18 Index My typical ball flight is: Slice/Fade with a driver and FW. Generally straight with irons, varies some days left or right. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Driver slice. Videos:
