That is just disgusting.

I can only hope those two go to prison and get the beat down of their lives ...

Those kind of people shouldnt even be on the golf course.. slow play and people who dont know proper etiquette on the golf course are a major problem. I've been at course's where there are signs that say 'slow players, let faster groups play through' and it still isnt enough.. for instance a two some waiting for a foursome shouldnt even be an issue. I have no problem letting people play through especially since i hate feeling rushed. But i have been in situations where i have felt like the people infront of me are just being jerks about the situation.. and the only hint you can give them is bombing a 290 yarder down the fairway as soon as they hit their second shots.

"I don't beat up on my grandpa, he wasn't my grandpa, so I hit him," Ryan Alexander said spontaneously after being handcuffed, Meier wrote. Ryan Alexander had visible cuts and dried blood on both his hands, the affidavit said.

HA HA HA! What a moron!

That's why i just hit into slow groups. Asking to play through can only cause problems.

Absolutely unforgiveable. I hate waiting and it can be embarassing if you're playing so slow that a group asks to play through. No excuse though...

Very Sad

Hope they enjoy getting "shafted" in prison

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
