I'm not sure we can be friends if that's your swing after 2 years. I mean come on that's just @#$%&!*&. 

Swing looks amazing bud I'm not surprised and I'm very very happy for you. We will have to get out once you crack open those irons.

Thanks bud...I think.  ;-)  I hopefully will bust them out this week for another session.

It could help the wrist from becoming injured again in the same place where I had the surgery.  I am just trying to avoid all of this happening again.  Thanks for the compliment.  

I realize now my post was not at all clear.  I meant the early, full wrist hinge to start the swing, almost before anything else has moved.  Is that what you're talking about?  I didn't mean the little wrap/string thing, which I gathered from your original post was meant to potentially prevent further injury.

Yeah basically I was trying to work on one of the pieces I was working on before the injury.  Which was getting the toe up at 2 to try and help deal with my miss which was and still seems to be over-draws.

Well I have a piece that is a priority to be working on.  No point to just going to the range to hit balls, that is what the course is for.  Trying to get the arms and body working together to reduce the overtaking rate and improve club face to path consistency.

It has been a long time coming but I made my first real swings today in a very long time.  I only hit about 30 balls, but it felt great.  The wrist has some very slight soreness but overall it felt very sturdy.  This was a about a 125 yard ball flight from a 7 iron.  I will try to get to the range a couple times a week and work on getting stronger with the swings.  Swung a couple very easy swings with a fairway wood as well and that also felt very solid thus far.

So awesome to see you being able to play a full round. I'm excited to get together to play a round. Was the wrist sore after you finished?

Just a very small amount of soreness.  Felt great overall though.

Two different mini driver swings.  One was a hook and one was a fade.  Only difference in feel was getting the right shoulder to the target quicker on the second swing.   I feel like I am close to a decent driver pattern but still have some work to do. Uploading to evolvr soon.

It is interesting how on Monday I hit nearly every drive well and mostly fades, then this morning I cannot stop hooking the ball.  A different day and can keep the clubface open.  I know the feel I am supposed to use to do it, just could not make it happen today.  Oh well, maybe next time.  I will probably hit the range today and work on my priority piece and hopefully I can correct it.

I did get to the range.  Moved the grip just a bit weaker in the left hand, but basically just worked on my priority piece in the DS.  Felt the hips forward in the BS as well.

    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
