This is probably a really dumb question,  but I've searched and can't find out what a forum 'skin' is.  I have 12 of them,. and have absolutely no idea what that means. Thanks!

I remember reading that it's a voting system where members can give thumbs up to others in the form of skins.  I think we all started out with 12, but I'm sure Erik will clarify in more detail.

Ha!  Haven't needed those things for over twenty years.  A little snip here, a little snip there, some stitching....and life has been good.

Reputation, basically. Everyone starts with 10. If you get a thumbs up from someone with a reputation of 12 or more, you earn +1 yourself.

This was very helpful... I wondered the same. If I had 12 or more I'd give you 1 for asking LOL

I put Adams and PING in my OGIO Recoil bag. I'm shooting for the low 90's by summer 13'

Ahhh, I see. I also didn't know what they were until I read this. Now I can build reputation and prevent having another child. Awesome thread, it saved me lots of college tuition and possible rehab bills.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
