You might want to look at this, listen to her how she disrespects the game throughout this video and then you maybe realize why there are people who dont think that

Wasn't the above tournament just a few months ago? Looks like she still has some maturing to do. I hope she does though, because the LPGA could use her in a star role.

 Sub 70 849 9* driver

:callaway:  Rogue 3 & 5 woods, Rogue X 4 & 5 hybrids

:tmade: SIM 2 6-gap irons

:cobra:  King snakebite grove wedges 52 & 58*

 :ping: Heppler ZB3 putter

She is 20 years old for pete's sake and still has a lot of growing up to do. I know I made some very wise decisions from age 16 to 21. I'm glad nobody is holding me accountable for the things I said or did at that age!!

Hell, I'm 37 and probably still need to grow up in some ways.

2 wins. She didn't hang on last week. I'm surprised there wasn't more cheering and wise cracks in this thread when Tseng overtook her with the closing nine 30. That's the norm on golf message boards, a dependable handful of posters whose LPGA attention span and comments are relegated to rooting against Michelle Wie. It's quite hysterical. Every event they are a comfy 12-1 to 15-1 favorite, since those are the odds against Wie winning. Imagine the terror when it looks like it will go the other way.

If the rest of that was aimed at me - sorry - I passed over all but the Lexi reference. She's got game, but the others I've never of.

Anyway, I think her performance in the Solheim Cup was on my mind when I said 3. Yeah, 2 wins.

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.

It always reminds me of the pathetic characters in Las Vegas sportsbooks who are too broke to be in action but go out of their way to chuckle when someone else loses. They'll waltz over and say, "Too bad. BTW, I liked the other side."

Gee, I lived in Vegas for 5 years, and was known to frequent a few sports books. I never saw or overheard anything like what you are saying. Maybe you hung out at different casinos than me.

Anyway, you think Wie is pretty good, I guess.

No one's denying Wie has freakish ability. She's got huge talent. Sergio Garcia has freakish ability too...

I'll take Lexi Thompson over Michelle Wie any day. LOL.

      I like to look at the positives.  Overall you are fairly consistent down the center with most shots 20 yards or less off center.  On most fairways that should be in play.  Sure, you had some very short duds, but also if you look there is a good cluster in the 110-125 yard range.  Sure, we would all like to be longer, but knowing your typical shot is more important than trying to hit the 7-Iron 175 Yards.  Just take more club for longer shots and do not worry about it.  Your distances may increase as you improve over time so do not get caught up on that now.

      Day 552, May 7, 2024 Played nine holes with @NatalieB with irons only from her tees. Didn't really finish out any holes, just hit the irons and approaches and some chips.

      What has gone downhill? Have you been practicing properly, filming your swing, working on exactly what he suggested without straying? My thoughts are that your results/outcomes from a lesson a year ago probably aren't all that relevant anymore.  And carry distance is far more important than total distance. Total distance is going to vary significantly based on course conditions.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By snapfade ·

      One thing that has helped me tremendously is to spray the club face with foot powder when I am on the range. Seeing ball impact can be quite helpful if you are hitting shots all over the place. It's not the cure all, but a good little thing to do on the range. The other thing, and I will forget to do it, is the pre-shot routine. Find me a spot a foot or so from the ball in-line with my target, take my stance, take the swing.  Sometimes you take a BS practice swing with no thought. Make it deliberate.  As far as swing thoughts. I have 3 check-points. First is set-up, Second is my take away, Third is my downswing. I cant explain what I think I just know in my mind. Its a feeling that I have that feels right and experience has shown that if I follow those 3 thoughts more than likely the outcome will be what I was looking for. Now, thinking about the feeling and executing it properly is a whole different thing, that;s why I practice, I used to be over a 20 handicap, I am down to a 15.1 in about a year.  I feel like its good progress. the goal is a 10 by the end of the year. If I make it great, if not, hey at least Im not in Gaza. LOL

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      I usually shy away from giving advice on a golf swing since so many here are more qualified than I am.  You might try the following:  Create a "MySwing" page on this  site and you will get a lot of good advice Filter all of the advice and try to only focus on one or two things at a time.  Unfortunately it is very hard, if not impossible, to constantly change different things at the same time.  Figure out what is the most important thing to work on at this moment in your golf swing and focus on that until you have it engrained, then move on the the next change. Remember, we all have both good & bad shots.  The difference between the pros and us hackers is the ratio of good to bad shots. Understand that a bad swing can occasionally look like a great result and a good swing can occasionally have a bad result.  The key is to focus on one thing and work to get that as consistent as possible.  Ideally that will gradually increase the number of good shots vs bad shots.    Do not forget to have fun.
