FWIW we have no preferred or supporting vendors.

We will delete threads if they link to a site we know to be of nefarious nature - counterfeiter sites, the bad kind of clones, ripoff sites (often Chinese), etc. That's done primarily to protect forum members because someone down the road might see a URL, click it, and get suckered in to a scam without scrolling down to read the 20 posts saying "that site is a scam!"

No problems posting links to TGW, Global Golf, Edwin Watts, etc.

Does that mean that you have to trade your club in my then, or use a trade in credit by then? In other words, if I sent all my stuff in for trade and had a $200 credit, would I be allowed to get the extra 35% when I used that credit when a sale was going on? If I send my trades today, and end up not buying before 1/11/11, but I do buy when the next 35% bonus is in affect, would I get that extra credit then?

Sorry if this is hard to follow, my Ambien is kicking in.

Most places that have a trade-in program apply any promotions to the credit at the time it's issued.  Thus if you trade in while there is a 35% "bonus" you will be issued that in a gift certificate that can be used whenever, but you can only get that "bonus" when there is a promotion for it.  Any other time you would get "normal" credit for your trade.  The only reason I put quotes around bonus and normal is because I have seen places change the trade in value during promotions.

I have no idea what you just described, but it simply works like this: you trade in a $100 club, they tack on an extra 35% (another $35).  They e-mail you a shipping label. You box up your club and send it in with the trade-in sheet.  They receive the club, process the trade-in, and they either e-mail you a gift certificate for $135, or if you did the trade-in together with an order, they'll credit your order up to the $135, and they'll e-mail you a gift certificate for the balance left over.

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus. 
    • I managed to knock off a 3, a 13, and a 15 a couple of weeks ago. The 3 was a 185 yard par 3 with a 6 iron to 12 feet. 13 was a 350 yard par 4, which was a 2 iron and a 9 iron to about a foot. 15 was a 560 yard par 5 with a driver in a bunker, 4 iron into the semi, gap wedge to 8 feet and a putt.
