That's pretty cool. I never bother to take practice swings or follow any set routine. Just tee it up, check the wind, get my direction, address, and swing - usually in that order, but it may vary. Teeing up the ball isn't always first, but swinging normally is last I hope I don't offend anyone, but I find it kinda funny when someone does this elaborate routine and looks so professional, only to shank the ball off into the woods.

actually the preshot routine adds an extra giggle or two to the shank into the woods...only slightly more funny is someone taking a monster swing and like topping it and it not going anywhere..it always gets a little chuckle out of me...which takes me to that commercial, where that guy is talking about being tied with tiger woods and the other guy is like tiger woods shot a 102? and then the other dude tops his drive, well that driver was loud when it hit the ball and it didnt move more than 3 yards. how is that possible???? has anyone ever done that??? cuz i watched that and i was like nooo way. so if anyone actually knows if the sound goes with the swing let me know. and i have a loosely followed preshot routine, but usually my drives go 275 yards down the fairway with a slight draw

I can't say for sure because there are exceptions but usually sound for commercials is sweetened, a term used when a different or enhanced sound is used. Often the actors voice their lines a second time in a sound booth to replace the live voices recorded on site.

      Whoops, I actually meant May! My mistake there. I'll reach out closer to the date once I know which specific days I'll be in STL.

      It's not a podcast, but there's a great discussion on that specific topic here: Personally as a student who does not teach I still find the "behind the scenes" information from an instructor's perspective pretty helpful if only in terms of helping identify different teaching philosophies to see what might work best for me. While I have taken fewer and fewer lessons over the years since I have learned a good deal about different bad habits I commonly fall into, I have also found it difficult to find new instructors (particularly when moving to new locations) that I feel provide enough benefit to be worth the cost. Hearing about how instructors that I know are effective approach these kinds of things makes it easier to identify if another instructor I might be interested in seeing is on the same page, so to speak. It's a bit of a moot point for me currently since I can count the number of instructors within a 2 hour's drive of me on a single hand, but luckily there are solutions to that problem as well.

      You must be speaking of April, since March 17th has passed and fell in the middle of the week and not on the weekend.  I don't typically play on weekends, saving that time for the working crowd.  If you would like to meet up during the week give me some advance notice and I will see what I can do.  Spring and summer get pretty busy with golf for me.
