No reason...

That depends on whether anyone downstairs throws your ball back up the stairs. You play it as it lies or take an unplayable. ;-)

You should come by some time. It's a quick, what, 10-hour flight? We've had people come to us from ten countries already. Let's add another!

Perfect on the voice! :-) Love it!

We're out of WW. We'll do schools next summer in Cleveland. That's the plan anyway.

We put that up ourselves. I think it came from this place: http://www.wallwritten.com/ . It's a big vinyl sticker that came in several pieces. Took us awhile to put it up. Looks good on the wall, though. Just about the perfect size.

Three hours? We just drove to Ottawa to teach an AimPoint school. We've had students from 10 countries and 33 of the 50 states! C'mon, three hours...?!?! :-) Come, practice, take a lesson, practice, spend the night, practice, and drive back. :-)

The liquor license is taken care of. 12 packs are $16 to $18 and are delivered from the restaurant caddy-corner to our building, along with some really good food and other beverages at 15% off menu price.

You know, that's a VERY good idea and the way I drive, I can certainly can shatter the approx. time that google shows....!

Well, the main reason is because the GE site has its own forum. They're separate entities.

It would be worth the drive, these guys are good.  I heard they even had a guy come in from San Diego a few times

Make a road trip out of it. Bring three buddies. We'll do a mini personalized school if you want - AimPoint, full swing, etc. Again, you're welcome to use the facilities when you're not working with us.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By boogielicious · Posted

      Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
