@Shindig and @No Mulligans I think we'd have to get at least 12 total to make the trip feasible for them. So let's try and round up some interest and see how many people we can find who want to putt better.

Highly unlikely it's a "them" scenario for 12 golfers. The math doesn't work out. You started another thread though so I'll post there when I see it.

Very glad to hear you enjoyed your class, @isukgolf .

My quote is from about a year ago. That said, I stand by it in the context. I've since repeated that you won't truly "get" all of AimPoint Express watching it in a video. That's still my opinion.

Since you have access to take the class, take the class.

First day with a on course implementation ... I went from guessing... To rolling it close on long putts ... And in on short putts ... Well worth every penny. It's funny becuase get my feel and then my point ... A couple of times on longer putts, I though no f'ing way my mark is that far from the hole ... Only to roll up next to the hole for a tap in ... I am hooked!

The AimPoint forum moved to The Facebook, btw.

Is that the AimPoint Golf Students group or the AimPoint Technologies group?

I tend to look at the DVD a bit like my Evolvr classes!  So, the reason I went with Evolvr is because I kept forgetting what I was being taught by the pros teaching me.  With Evolvr it's in a video and I can go back and relearn everything whenever I need it.

With this video for Aimpoint it has helped me in much the same way.  Once I figured out a few things about how far to stand around the ball when I put my fingers up and the calibration I have been MUCH better at it.

The benefit of it is that you have a video so you can't forget.

Mike Dynda taught me the midread very well but it was a long time ago and I forgot a bunch of the Nuance that's why this was helpful to me!

look at it like Evolvr and you will want both!

I don't practice putting much because my full swing practice pretty much dominates my practice and whereas I could probably get better at putting if I practiced what I learned form AimPoint, but just the knowledge itself is so helpful.  I cringe to think where my putting would be if I hadn't taken the class.

Post Aimpoint Express 1 and 2 classes - Such a great help in lining up putts.  As said earlier, it really helps!  I don't quite get the "reading the slope with my feet" thing yet, but my Aimpont teacher _ Sean Lanyi at Black Gold in Orange County Ca offered a class audit, so I'm going back for a complimentary session Saturday.  Looking forward to it!!

Just trying to find my way around

    • Question for the group. The course I normally play at has 27 holes - 3 9s that they use to for 18 in the various combinations. Is it okay to declare* if I’m playing front or back when I play 9 on this course? I’m figuring I need to declare before I play a shot. *meaning just say to myself that this is the back 9. Curious what people think. Of course, my only holes left are 13 and 17, so I’m going to declare the back 9 for the rest of the year. Probably only one or two more rounds though. 
    • This is my opinion as well. I would love to see the LPGA take the lead on this.    This.
    • I agree in general. The one way in which the viewer will notice the pace of play is just that "it's been an hour and Nelly Korda or Scottie Scheffler have only played four holes." Or if for some reason they show a lot of shots of players just standing around when they could be showing golf shots. But I think Andy Johnson said it most recently/best, playing fast is a skill, too. I would love for pro golfers to play faster. You'd see the players you want to see hit more shots in the same time than they do now. So I don't disagree with the pace of play stuff, and hope they can find ways to do it. Heck, the LPGA should leap at the chance to differentiate itself in this way, IMO. So: I stand by what I said in that the TV viewer really doesn't notice much about pace of play. It's rare when they do. I support increasing the pace of play wholeheartedly. But my top five reasons don't include TV ratings or viewership.
    • I don't think the viewer at home can pick up on pace of play, unless the announcers mention something. The telecast has the luxury of bouncing from player to player, which ensures we the viewer always have something to watch.  I think we would notice pace of play if the camera just followed one golfer for an entire round. Or  You were actually golfing behind the slow group Or  The slow group is the last to only group left to finish the tournament.  I like the idea of having a person carrying a digital clock, following each golfer. When the golfer gets to the ball and the group in front of them has cleared they have 60 seconds or they get a penalty stroke. Maybe a second violation is a 2 stroke penalty.  Or as I have said before, every golfer wears a shock collar!!!!! at 1 min 1 second that golfer if going to drop. It will take them a good 30 second to recover, leaving them with another 30 seconds to hit the shot. The course would be littered with golfers just convulsing on fair way from an endless cycle of shocks because they cant seem to hit their ball and keep pace of play. 
    • This isn't the same thing.  This is entirely a time of year thing. Not a trend.  This is the COVID year.  There are many who think the Masters viewership was actually way up. The 2024 ratings being down is only for CBS televisions. It doesn't include anyone (including me) who watched it online.
