My swing thought is to not swing around my body more of an extension back under and through and trying to visualize the position of the club face throughout. I usually beg not to go left/hook as well. To much thinking I know.

What top teacher/instructor would you like to work with in building or rebuilding your swing?

A: ahh hard choice umm augusta

Q:if u could have one wish what would it be

A. Not my house but I've sold several for other people (as a realtor). Shouldn't be a nightmare if you have a competent realtor.

Q. Do you know what the "John 3:16" signs at sporting events refers to?

A: I think it's like when you get separated from your parents at a mall or a theme park, maybe - referring to the meeting time. Those parents holding the sign probably figure their kid, John is watching tv. That's a pretty safe assumption.

Q: Did you play golf today?

3 -PW: :Titleist: 695 mb (Rifle flighted 6.0)
wedges:, 52˚, 56˚, 60˚
putter: Studio Select Newport 1.5


A. Yup, only got through 9 holes though it was way to hot without any wind, felt like I was getting grilled. Simply unbearable.

Q. Are you constantly tinkering with equipment?

Yes, I want to understand my swing (or lack of) and how all the parts fit, I use technology, equipment and what ever else I can find.

What is your most memorable shot?

A: My 1st par (a par 3); and also teeing it up with my boss and completely whiffing the 1st tee shot.

Q: Favorite time of day to play and why?

Wheres your question?

A:ride if its just a normal course or a lot of people playing.. walk if its a course i want to look at the scenary and take the course in.

Q: What is the best budget ball for distance and feel in your opinon?

:cobra: Speed ld-f 10.5 Stiff
:snake_eyes: 3 & 5 Woods
:adams:A4 3 hybrid
:bridgestone: J33 Forged Irons 4-pw
:ping: 50th Aniv. Karsten Ansr Putter56*, 60* wedges


A: the E series of Bridgestone are pretty good for the prize and come in a wide range based on your trajectory need. But I have a friend that swears by the much cheaper Top Flite D2 feel.

Q: Do you have a lucky pre-round meal, and if so, what is it?

A: It used to be pancakes, bacon and coffee at the clubhouse. I'm trending towards the breakfast wrap with salsa, bacon and cheese.

Q: What's the best meal you ever ate at a golf course, and where?

A: My PW - it's part of the set but it just isn't as accurate as my $30 Wilson Pro Staff GW - I may get another Wilson and have it bent stonger (until it just before it breaks - lol).

Q. Getting outside and experiencing nature always makes me crave ___insert meat here_____. Do you think vegetarians can truly enjoy golf?

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.


A: My PW - it's part of the set but it just isn't as accurate as my $30 Wilson Pro Staff GW - I may get another Wilson and have it bent stonger (until it just before it breaks - lol).

A: Beef Jerky, I don't think vegetarians truly understand joy.

Q: Whats your favorite courses to play, and why?

any courses with a lot of water and good scenary. I dont know why but water gives an adrenaline rush and makes golf like 3x more fun.

if PGA issued a new rule saying that you are allowed to carry 13 clubs, which club would you take out?
In my Warbird Hot Stand Bag:

Driver: R9 420cc 9.5° stiff
3 Wood: Burner 07 Fairway #3 Stiff

A. Hmm, if I had to take out one club? Probably my 5 wood, I can smoke the hell out of a 4 iron.

Q. Club/Course you've been to with the hottest cart girls?

    • Day 133: did a stack session. 
    • You can pre-order an R50 here for pretty rapid shipping (these are back-ordered almost everywhere): https://www.playbetter.com/products/garmin-approach-r50-golf-launch-monitor-simulator?ghref=2301%3A700794. This is an affiliate purchase, and I'm willing to kick back lifetime ad-free Supporter membership here on TST or a 90-minute GEARS session for the cost of a regular member lesson (about 1/3 the cost). Also, I'll record a video myself soon when I get an R50.
    • Day 58 - 2024-11-27 Some quick 90-yard shots on a particular hole… before a lesson and testing out multiple Foresight Launch Monitors on GSPro.
    • Day 209 (27 Nov 24) - Easy session with the LW - short pitches replicating greens side up and downs. Finished up with the 7i and hard foam balls - making 1/2 to 3/4 swings with deliberately slowed tempo…from varied lies. 
    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
