Thank you! From the frontview I think it looks okay but from the backview I can't see any similarity with your swing. My legs often lowers and get into a squatty position like this.


By the way, yesterday I decided I wanna improve faster so I joined evolvr. Hope it can take my swing to the next level =).

Sweet.

That's not a great swing of mine but it's more to do with the upper body.

Your knees and legs will generally re-gain their address posture from DL view at about A5.5 or so. So yeah, I can see what you're talking about. I thought perhaps you meant on the backswing or at A4.

Still this piece is pretty easy to clean up. I won't say much now since I'm not doing a full look and I don't want to give you a priority 2 or 3 piece because I'm only looking at your legwork when there may be a priority 1 piece somewhere else.

I hope evolvr will help me clear it up eventually, thanks for the feedback.

nevrino, spring for a faster SD card. :) They don't have to be too big, just class 6, though even the class 10 cards are pretty inexpensive.

yep guess I will have to do that. Maybe it could be the settings in the camera that aren't optimal, my first swings never lagged this much. The camera is casio exilim ex-zr100 and the sd card is almost brand new so it's kinda weird, gonna look into this however.

Maybe it's not the card. I know I've seen that skipping when the card(s) are too slow to keep up. Maybe you can format the card (I format the cards all the time) to restore its performance.

Had quite an amazing round today with 4 birdies and 6 pars, some bad holes led to 81 strokes though, but im chasing that 80 barrier now =D.


Had quite a revelation today about my right wrist not opening enough at the backswing(thanks JetFan1983). I hope evolvr guys don't get mad at me for trying things on my own . Also bought a new sd card, the fastest I could find and it made quite a difference.

Here's swings from today:


Swing looks pretty good as far as I can tell. Short game will save you so many strokes. Work on your putting, you dont need evolvr for that :)

No, but we're happy to look at any sort of shot in evolvr. It's not just for full swings. Record your putting stroke, bunker shots, pitches, chips, etc.

Oh I know that I was just saying that once you have the correct technique (which evolvr could definitely help with), you just need to put in the time.

My greengame isn't that bad, I will prob use some lessons this winter just to correct the flaws I have, but it's not prioritized now. My long game isn't good enough yet.


Decided i'm going to work my way from P2-P4, it's only 3 positions with no power involved so shouldn't be so hard to nail, and obviously my backswing is a bit uncontrolled atm. These won't be in a real swing until i'm done.

Okay so starting with p2, any comments about this is greatly appriciated as I find it pretty hard to find reliable information. Okay so the swingthoughts from P1 to P2 is.

  • arm and shoulder work together and keeping that triangle.
  • from backview the hands should end up about where my toes are.

Questions from P1-P2:

Should the right arm bend a little more?

According to the black line should my hands be more out or in?

According to the white line should my hand be higher or lower?

Is my shoulder plane to steep or flat?

    • A 5400 yd course is not that short for gents driving it 160 yards considering the approach shot lengths they are going to be faced with on Par 4s.  Also, for the course you are referring to I estimate the Par 4s have to average longer than 260 yds, because the Par 5s are 800 yds or so, and if there are four Par 3s averaging 130 the total is 1320 yds.  This leaves 4080 yds remaining for 12 Par 4s.  That is an average of 340 per hole. Anyway, if there are super seniors driving it only 160ish and breaking 80 consistently, they must be elite/exceptional in other aspects of their games.  I play a lot of golf with 65-75 yr old seniors on a 5400 yd course.  They all drive it 180-200 or so, but many are slicers and poor iron players.  None can break 80. I am 66 and drive it 200 yds.  My average score is 76.  On that course my average approach shot on Par 4s is 125 yds.  The ten Par 4s average 313 yds.  By that comparison the 160 yd driver of the ball would have 165 left when attempting GIR on those holes.     
    • I don't think you can snag lpga.golf without the actual LPGA having a reasonable claim to it. You can find a ton of articles of things like this, but basically: 5 Domain Name Battles of the Early Web At the dawn of the world wide web, early adopters were scooping up domain names like crazy. Which led to quite a few battles over everything from MTV.com You could buy it, though, and hope the LPGA will give you a thousand bucks for it, or tickets to an event, or something like that. It'd certainly be cheaper than suing you to get it back, even though they'd likely win. As for whether women and golfers can learn that ".golf" is a valid domain, I think that's up to you knowing your audience. My daughter has natalie.golf and I have erik.golf.
    • That's a great spring/summer of trips! I'll be in Pinehurst in March, playing Pinehurst No. 2, No. 10, Tobacco Road, and The Cradle. 
    • April 2025 - Pinehurst, playing Mid Pines and Southern Pines + 3 other courses. Probably Talamore, Mid-South, and one other.  July 2025 - Bandon Dunes, just me and my dad.
