So my current glove is on it's way out, might have one round left in it, the thumb is almost gone and it's falling apart. I asked my mom to pick up a RH glove for me. She stopped at Walmart and Target but they didn't have it, so she stopped at a local 9 hole course. She went in and asked the guy for a glove. She bought it and gave it to me when she got home. It was a top-flite XT glove, normally 9 dollars at most of the courses I play. The guy charged her $40!!!!! She has very little experience when it comes to golf so she assumed it was the normal price. Do y'all think that is the actual price at that course, or that the store manager took advantage of her small knowledge of golf?? I feel it was the latter and we are going to return it. Has this ever happened to anybody else??

That's the actual price at the course.  They charge $15 for a sleeve of 3 ProV1's.  It's just a way for them to make more money on people.  If someone *really* needs a glove before they go out, they can change whatever they want.  All those things are a ripoff, but that's what they charge.  I'm guessing you'd be able to return it.

    • 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.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • 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. 
    • 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.
