just wanted to share because it was exciting. didn't keep score today just worked on getting my swing right. I've never pured so many shots in a day. i teed off with my 5w a lot because i didn't feel comfortable with my driver. i was hitting it 230-250 every time!!

tried the same swing with the driver... slice. its a stiff flex though so i decided to just swing a little harder.. bingo!

basically i was just hitting almost all my shots pure, they sounded and felt so good. could be on the way to par golf! thanks to all of you who have given me tips in the past.

It's always a great feeling when your swing feels like it's grooving. Nothing like playing good golf!!

You didn't keep score?  What??  I have to admit I was a bit disappointed when I read your post..........HEHE

When I clicked to read your post, I was excited to read about a great round, a personal best....or something good.  I wasn't expecting to read about a good practice session...........

The above is like posting a thread about putting great on the practice green...IMO  I'm not trying to bust your chops...I'm just saying what I felt when I read the post. LOL....it can't be the best golf of your life if you were just whacking it around while not keeping score.

Very cool.  I had one of those a couple of weeks back.  Best nine holes of my life... got to the tenth tee and had a two group back up. No time to finish (had dinner plans).  Had to settle for "best 9 ever."

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _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

      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.
