Hello All,

My name is Tony, and I'm resident copywriter for 2nd Swing Golf (2ndswing.com)!  I am representing 2nd Swing Golf here in The SandTrap Community, and am very excited to finally be a part of it.  2nd Swing Golf, as well as myself, are both based in Minneapolis MN.

I suppose it is a delicate situation when you have an "interested" party in your community, by that I mean I represent a Golf retailer, however, I would like to take this opportunity to put my best foot forward and say that I hope that I and 2nd Swing Golf can be a real, valuable member of this community.  I am only concerned with spreading the Gospel of Golf and hopefully turning some of you on to some new opportunities in the Golf world, as I know that this community will certainly be able to turn me on to a few things as well.

I am mainly looking for any and everything INTERESTING to do with Golf.  I'm always on the look out for demoing opportunities, contests and giveaways (like The SandTrap's Masters Pick Contest) and the like, but I also really love in-dept and interesting articles about Golf in general, from Life On The Tour, to Weekend Warrior Swing Tips and even Golf and Travel.  I'm also kind of a foodie, so I'm even interested in what courses have the best clubhouse dining!

As for my golfing ability, I'm a high-mid, with great aspirations for improvement this particular Season.  Especially since it's started so early here in Minnesota this year!

Thank you All for welcoming 2nd Swing Golf to The SandTrap Community!

-- Tony

Tony,

You guys at 2nd Swing are awesome. I was between jobs this winter and spent a lot of time at the Minneapolis location puttering around. For the last several years, every single club in my bag has come from your shop (with the exception of my yard sale Ping Anser 3 putter).  The new fitting/testing center at the East Hennepin Ave location is incredible. Congratulations!

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
