I need to, I just hurried and got that video. I wish my right handed bs looked like that lol and the transition lol.

Thanks!!!! It looked a lot better than it felt. I need to work on my hip action through impact.

A born "Natural"

Other than lower body and footwork being slightly stagnate, much better than I could ever swing LH.

I'd probably resemble a "lame duck making a crash landing" swinging left handed.........

Conspiracy!!!  It looks to me like it say "TIXE" over that door in the background.  Why would that be???  ;)  I'm suspicious that you guys borrowed somebody's left handed wedge, flipped it over, hit i

I'm going to work on my lefty swing, it will take some work to improve the down swing pivot. I'm definitely getting a few left handed clubs to start working on it. I'm going to use the same MOrAD principles.  Thanks!

Every one of those looks better than my normal swing....  :8)

This is a lot of fun too, so let's see if we can't resurrect the challenge a bit, for those who haven't tried it yet!

so I'll start by saying most of you guys have a better "opposite swing" than my usual, so this is ugly:

My putter is of an older blade style where the back part is slightly lofted as well. I read Ping does this design to allow for left-handed chips when the ball is up against something, to avoid unplayable penalties. (Im right handed so cant get at the ball)

I've only had to do this type of chip twice in the last year.

Some people have said my right-handed swing is nicer than my left.

I tried to switch hands but I had a minor injury involving my shoulder that stopped me.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
