..showed me his interlock grip on his Playschool Flintstone driver yesterday. He said "Daddy, like this?" and raised the club and bless his heart his index and pinky were perfectly locked..I was shocked..I said where'd you learn that..he said "Golf Channel"..cracked me up.

Wow, that's great stuff. When he gets a little older you should take him to Target and get one of those Monster Wedges to play with. It's huge and fun. It's a bit heavy so he might want to wait a year or so. It comes with a tee and inflatable golf ball. I tried to find a link and couldn't, but the ones here in Orlando carry a whole line of that stuff. I bought one and the neighborhood kids love it.

I've got a 6 month old and I've already worked with him by putting a plastic club in his hand. Showing him the interlock grip, etc.

All he did was drool.

Fairways and Greens.

Thats really cool. I actually got a starter set for my 9 year old (driver, hybrid, 5, 7, & 9 iron, sand wedge and putter). He has been at it for 3 months now. i wish i would have gotten him started earlier. I have been getting him lessons and signed him up for Sunday clinics at the course. He likes it but i think he is overwhelmed. (just like dad!) I actually started taking it more seriuosly after he started. Now my wife is into it. We look at it as a family thing.

      Day 91 (1  Aug 25) - Pre-tournament practice round today…had some great up and downs for par saves.  Rain came in this evening so it will be a totally different playing course tomorrow.

      Ovvio Shafts (from GEARS)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Jesus, when he keeps saying scissoring moment, ugh that is a horrible sounding phrase. Just makes me cringe. It doesn't help my mind went to Mr. Garrison from South Park. 🤣 If you know you know.  I think for the most part, golf shaft companies have gotten this figured out. They ask questions like, what tempo do you swing at. The whole scissor terminology sounds like they want to stand out a bit.  Yea, golfers load the golf shaft differently, and different bend profiles can help out. I do think swing speed matters as well. You probably want a golf shaft with lower torque if you swing faster.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Played 9 holes, shot a 39.  Kind of got around. Everything between the trees, so in play. Short game was rusty. Got to get back on that. Greens were stupidly slow because they got a lot of rain yesterday and probably couldn't cut them down. Usually in the summer they are firm and pretty fast for how sloped they are. Got to work on face to path a bit.

      Physics

      By GolfLug · Posted

      We agree here. Top of the car has a forward force, bottom of the car experiences a backward force via the braking. Both about the COM (somewhere in between). Result is a rotational flip. Since the forward force is still higher the car probably still globally travels forward. Sure, pretty basic. You really think there are deliberate twist forces applied? Like forcing the club head forward and simultaneously forcing grip end in the opposite direction? Heck I don't think we even slow down the grip end deliberately let alone force it the other way. Sorry, if I am missing something here. The orientation change is simple incidental because there is different rate of global movement of grip vs. clubhead throughout the swing. I also happen to think the best swings have the least amount of differential movement between the two end in the impact zone.  In my defense, I never thought one could do justice in covering all aspects of a golf swing in a paragraphs or two to begin with. Especially not with grade school physics..😜 Okay.
