Hey everyone.  I figured I should finally join since every time I google search a question about golf and equiptment, I usually get directed to this site.

I just started playing golf serious last May 2012.  I have played before in tourneys for fun, but never tried to get good at it.  And I have no idea why not because I have the bug bad now.  My first time out last may I shot a 116 and finally in December (my last round I played), I shot an 82 (that doesnt and hasnt happened very often.  I am usually high 80's).  My handicap index is 15-17.  It fluctuates quite a bit from week to week.  I play about 3-4 rounds a week and just want to get better.

Anyway, I joined mainly because I could talk about golf all day.  So, hopefully this will quench my thirst.  And hopefully pick up some good tips to help me get my handicap down even lower this year.

I run a bar in Dublin Oh (so I have my most of my week days free) and live in Marysville, OH and have 3 really nice courses within 10 minutes of my house.

Thanks and see ya around.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
