I lived next door to my neighbor for almost 14 years before I found out he was friends with Ben and Valerie Hogan.  He was the minister at the church they belonged to for many years, which is how he g

The photo on the first page of the guy with the beard... it looks like he's lining up his putt. That's what I think of when I picture golf history.

Imagine him watching you swing... "Git offa mah course!" Kinda creepy.

These old photos are neat. Lots of history. Thanks!

I don't play golf, I play at golf. There's a difference.

Now here's a golf swing! That's me taking a lesson from my dad who was a PGA Professional in Maine. July 2, 1958.

Great picture! I'm sure you cherish that one!

Thanks! I do. Now, years later, I wish I had paid a lot more attention to what he was telling me.

I hope you don't mind a modern view of a classic image. I suppose I can convert to black & white and pretend!

Harry Vardon teeing off at Fall River Country Club on October 20, 1900. The clubs is still there today, and is a few minutes away from my office. I absolutely love this picture (and hope to play there soon).

Love this one.  Note the water bucket and box of sand for making your tee.  Truly old school. :beer:

      Day 18: 2026.01.20 Continuing work on arm raise during backswing. Starting to feel less weird, especially the slower I go. Looking like a busy week so might be the weekend before I can hit some balls.

      PING G425 9 Iron Rattle/Noise

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s possible the graphite shaft has a small internal crack or a delamination. Tapping it and hearing a vibrating sound is usually a sign the shaft isn’t behaving as it should. Since the store wasn’t helpful, consider taking it to a club fitter or a pro shop that can check the shaft flex and integrity. If it’s defective, you might be able to get a replacement from the manufacturer.

      Maintaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By Mystique · Posted

      It’s interesting how much a 3D system changes your understanding. Observing top players in full detail and realizing the trail knee shouldn’t fully extend is a great example of why being open to new info is so important. I like your approach: not trying to be “right,” but trying to teach correctly based on actual evidence. Makes sense why golfers would benefit from this perspective.

      Golf Workouts

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I would say both are equally not the best for golf. Is it better than nothing, sure.  Golf is an athletic motion. Professional golfers are doing a comprehensive workout routine focusing on strength, power, flexibility, stability. They might include some yoga into the routine. I would put both of them in the recovery bin, not golf enhancement bin.  If you want to increase swing speed, core strength, longevity in golf and life, then lift heavy weights.
