Man I love this game.
This title is not meant to poke fun at those of you who have been incredibly dedicated to the game and have very good handicaps.Rather this is an attitude towards the game that really stops me from being too harsh on myself when bad shots occur and also due to my status in life,married with children,37 years of age,unlikely to gain distance.Playing maybe twice a month.
You know yesterday I hit some great shots a lot of passable shots and those fat contacts where the ball goes a third of the distance,but you know what the wind was non existent,a warm sun,and 2 great playing partners.It was perfect and I just felt blessed to be out there,plus the coastal views were amazing due to the elevation of the course.
Of course I will improve and I know enough to see that my game has incredible potential but for now I'm going to swing away and enjoy getting to the destination.

Haha I was just joking, I had a round like that friday. Shot in the 90s I think, but just really enjoyed myself out with a friend and brother. Great day, great course, felt great. Didn't play so well but still some of the most fun ive had this summer.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
