After mowing my lawn that was 10 feet high from all the rain I made a trip out to the range. I started with my pw as usual and move through my irons down to my 5 iron.

With last weeks round in mind, I pulled out my driver. I focused on what felt like a 50% backswing. While I was hitting them better than before, something still felt off. I took a break, hit some more irons, then pulled out the driver again. I don't know what made me think to do this, but I did the "feel like there's a glove in your left armpit" move. That, coupled with my shorter backswing...WOW. I was hammering balls. Perfect low trajectory and long. The crack off the club face was nothing that I've ever done before. All this from what felt like a fraction of my previous driver swing. I think the changes I made forced me to really turn my shoulders back and through. The best part is it was repeatable. Also, I moved the ball back in my stance some.

I'm going to play 9 or go to the range again after work today.

    • I entirely agree with everything you said, but would just note that normal human beings are a lot closer to degenerate and avaricious scum than many of us might be comfortable admitting/might realize.
    • That is a bit hyperbolic, I think. Most despicable is a bit much.  Again, a bit over the top here.  Most athletes are probably closer to being normal human beings than degenerates and avaricious scum.  Just sounds like you want to generalize all athletes because it is easy to do so. Hey, generalizing a subset of a population is entirely a human thing to do. 
    • This is so awesome; my two biggest lifetime hero and the biggest superstars of the past 35 years in golf……both turned out to be the two of the most despicable human beings in professional sports… Between this and everyone whoring themselves out for Saudi Arabia… Used to love golf because I thought they were smarter, better people than the other sports. Turns out a huge percentage of them are total degenerates and avaricious scum like every other sport!
