I can get it going on the range. I can bring it to the course ...but it fades as I go. Still trying to build that muscle memory.

My post was also seven words long, but all posts don't have to be seven words long. Do they?

I only go to the range if I am trying out a new club or working on a swing or grip modification. I save practice for the course when I go out by myself. I have 5 totally different courses near me that I can play for right at $20.

Practicing at the range is not for me. I get drained way too quickly at the range because of just hitting ball after ball which is not how it happens on the course. There is time to recover between shots on the course.

Your posts are still questions.

A quote from Kris
...is that college bball really isn't "lower tier". The better teams have their rosters filled with guys who could play in the NBA. hell, guys used to come straight from high school to the NBA. I really don't think there's much of a difference skill-wise between the two.

I know what you mean. It varies for me. A lot of local course will not let you play alone so your usually paired with 2 or 3 more. Sometimes I feel like I could give lessons after a trip to the range, but the next day it doesnt show on the course, and vise versa.

There's no rule at the driving range that says you have to hit the balls quickly one after the other. Take 2 or 3 minutes between your shots at the range just like you would on the course. You won't get drained too quickly and you'll have plenty of time to recover. I've seen people go through 3 or 4 buckets of balls in the time it takes me to get through 1 because I take my time with each shot.

I think I may stay away from the range and try and get more solo twilight rounds in. There are very few flat lies on my home courses. You also can better hone your short game.

      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
