If I say sorry, will everyone please stop this akward little blog war thing, jeez. Alright Shorty you're ass is NOT fat and lardy, satisfied? Oh, and btw when I made my account I had about as much idea what a handicap inddex was as much as that e equals mc square thing. But then again, since I've never seen any of you and probablt never will, actually this is just for Shorty.....  Yo mama is so fat, her bellybutton gets home 15 mins. before she does. No, Im just kidding yo mama jokes are lame...... Now please let's get back to the topic. If you don't have something to say, get your fat lardy ass of my wall!!!!

Sorry, I just had to. (BTW why hasn't the moderator like banned my comment?)

@ Gresh: Tell THAT to his PARENTS...... Apparently they have not taught the 13yo to respect adults or for that matter authority figures. I see far too much of this in my line of work Gresh. Discipline starts in the home. If there isn't discipline in the home, there won't be any anywhere else, including the golf course.

It's not who you are in life, but what you do and how you treat others that makes the difference.......

Christ, I said SORRY, “Do not judge , and you will not be judge d. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven." Luke 6:36-38 " Those who haven't sinned may throw the first stone. Of Jesus can forgive prostitutes and royalty alike, I think so can you.

And you Mr. gfd66 don't even dare try and judge my parents. Before you take the splinter out of your own eye, first remove the wooden beam in your own

Perhaps the rudest response yet.

Domenic, I'm going to say this a second and final time. Get back on topic. It's your thread, and you're inviting continued off-topic responses because you keep responding to them. To help you, here is your original post:

Anything you guys have to say on the topic is helpful. (advice, tips, encouragement, whatevs)

How often do you practice? Getting lessons is great and all but you have to practice what you learned.  You mention you don't get to play 18 a lot but never said anything about practicing in your post.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
