I got a chance to play the new Jack Nicklaus course that i live near on monday. had a great time, awesome course... the course is pretty much fully open, but the clubhouse hasnt been built yet, they are using part of a building that is one of the locations of the local community college for now.

they have some awesome holes...one of the greens is up in a sand dune overlooking lake Michigan. its not too long (6200 yds from the greys, 6800 yards from the blacks) but it plays much longer than the given distance due to the layout... water in front of par 5s, a hole of 2 very up hill, but there are 4 or 5 sets of tees to choose from.

its an awsome course, so if anyone is ever out in the southwest corner of michigan stop in and try it if youve got some money to spend...like 140 dollars or so right now.

and if you have seen that 100 foot putt that nicklaus made during his round with watson, miller, and arnie, it was an insane crazyass putt. it was like 12 feet uphill and to make it up there you have to aim like 40 feet left and hit it hard. and im not exaggerating, it might be more. i tried it twice and the ball ended up 40 feet straight to the right of me and almost went behind me... its like a one in billion chance that he could actually make that.

Man, you're killing me. I live in St. Joseph just a couple miles from that course. I drive by it every weekend. I want to play it but I just can't afford it right now. I've heard it's $75 for 18 with a cart after 3pm. I'm going to have to scrounge up the cash to play before the season is up.

There's a YouTube video of Nicklaus making that putt.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
