First off I want to thank all the current Forum Leaders for all of their contributions to the site.  You guys are important to making The Sand Trap a great place.  And I want to welcome our 8 new Forum Leaders: minibluedragon , michaeljames92 , mcfc_nick , deasy55 , deryck+griffith , walk18 , senorchipotle and normdamarine .  Special note, normdamarine is currently serving in Afghanistan, so we hope he makes it home safe and gets back to golf soon.

There are some extra features that come along with the title, other than the Forum Leader badge: ability to superflag a posts as spam, public message shows on profile, no limit on pm's, ability to edit a post up to 27 minutes after you post, classified lists are highlighted and recognition for your efforts.

Consider it a stamp of approval that your opinion matters.  You've all been active members of the forum who have participated and used many of the features, or will.  Just a reminder to some of those features we would like see utilized: handing out reputation, doing reviews, following other members and joining or starting groups.

It's awesome to see some of my nominations make the cut this time around. I'm a little disappointed some of my other recommendations didn't make it, but maybe next time. Congratulations, guys

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • 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.
