Things you enjoy most about golf:  Like most of us, love the camaraderie and flushed iron shots.  However, what I truly enjoy most is the car ride to the course as the sun is starting to come up on a Saturday morning.  Combining the anticipation & excitement with that serene time of day, work in the rear view for a few hours/days...can't beat it.

Goals for 2017: Improve my swing mechanics to develop a more repeatable/consistent motion that decreases my current reliance on compensations.

      Day 336 - Back to some full swing work. Focus was on a hips-towards-the-target finish, chest higher up. Partial swings working up to full swings.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      By GolfLug ·

      Matt, the equation is simple from my perspective. Stronger the grip, greater the potential of application for twist torque at impact. And if it it is combined with an extreme outward path as you say, god help you. Not too many skilled players with super strong grips, are there? Sure, it's all about match-ups but the connection to super strong grips and duck hooks is common from what I see and have dealt with myself.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By Clemsonfan ·

      I have been a big follower of this technology ever since I saw Positive Putters display at a golf show in the Revealer they invented and patented. That would have been around 2000. It made sense to me that staying target line balanced was a better way of balancing.  Early models of these putters were often too flat for me and I struggled to hole more putts. I was fascinated by all of them - Positive Putters, the Railgun, the SeeMore blades and the Backstryke. I have tried the DF1, which was great for long putts, and currently use the DF3. I am still really good at long putts with the DF3 3, having made a 90’ putt and a 34’ putt in my last two rounds. My first round with the DF3 I only had 24 putts making almost 200’ of putts. I don’t quite use the putter the way they suggest- I don’t swing harder, and only a little longer, on longer putts. All my putts are at the same tempo, or strive to be. Therefore, I am swinging harder on longer putts. I do love putting with the DF 3 and I have become much better at putting through 50-60 mm gates at home, rarely hitting the sides.
