Those are really slick. Would be awesome in the "man cave". Nice work!

I want to get them mass produced, but i'm still in school and it's hard for me to find the right people to help me start it up. I would love opinions on how to go about starting it up!!  FEEDBACK

The issue your facing is scale.  If I owned a metal shop I would really be hurting if I had the time to make you 10 or 50.

So lets talk 1000. Can you afford this?  (I would really want to do 10,000)

With me in the loop your profit goes down. Now add a dealer and his profit cut.

Plan B - fly to Tawaian and open the hotels phone book. How to find everything you need to get anything made is in the phone book. The chances of your patent being honored are slim.  (Advantage: You can get away from using real golf bags.)

Plan C:  Make them yourself as a hobby.  Open an E-bay store.

I just had a look at your patent and the ones in the photos are different enough from the drawings in the patent not to infringe it, so I'd forget about the patent. There wouldn't be enough of a market to worry about anyway. I think your best bet would be to sell them on eBay. You'd probably do quite well, but the base is too agricultural looking.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Good point.

And I agree the bases look a little primative.  More of a "shop" look rather than "bar room"  look.  But they are cool, I have no problem with "agricultural".

    • 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.
