Hello fellow Sussex County resident. Joe from Fredon here.

Hey hey. I'm up 94 from you, just north of Vernon. Started my career behind your house in Newton while living in Wantage. After work I could practically walk over to Rolling Greens for a quick round. They were open ALL YEAR LONG SNOW OR NO. Crazy. Narrow course too, if I recall, but a lot of fun when I was just learning the game :)

Greetings from Ct. I'm not sure where you are in relation to Rutgers U. but last April my GF had to go to a two day Re-certification seminar there. I went along for a golf trip. We drove down on Monday night and Tuesday morning I got to play as a single at Bunker Hill, which was recommended by a friend of hers, while she was attending her lectures. A very nice course.

Wednesday again she's at lectures, I had picked Quail Brook, totally at random from the Internet and I had one of the best times of my life playing with two great guy's. That was a Very, Very nice course!

We drove home Wed. night, and I played a quick 9 at a small local course up here Thursday afternoon after work,  since I was still full of "Golfesterone".

She had to be back at the University Friday morning at 9:00 am for her written exam, so on a whim, I called in sick and went back down with her. While she was taking her test I drove back to Quail Brook and purchased a course wind breaker as a souvenir, and sat by the first Tee for a while, watching groups go out for their rounds. Once she was done with her exam, we drove over to the USGA Museum and took the tour. That place was awesome!

All in all it was a great golfing week, and if I ever get the chance I want another shot at Quail Brook.

I ordered a Chicken and an Egg on the Internet, to find out which came first... I'll keep you posted!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 85 - 2024-12-24 Practiced for 90 minutes (which probably means I hit about 60 golf balls). No launch monitor, but plenty of aids and feedback.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By GolfLug ·

      So got fitted in a 35" Odyssey Microhinge Double wide 'blade' yesterday at GG. Choice was between it, SQ to SQ, LAB DF3, Rose Axis and Mizuno Craft  (also a double wide). Apparently I'm pretty good a aiming right of the hole consistently regardless of putter type. But it all came down to distance control and the insert feel. We hit puts in the putting area for the fitting but then ended up on the aisle carpet to hit long 40ish feet putts. Which is where the Microhinge did the best for my stroke. The Mizuno was a close second. The DF3 and Axis weren't bad either but I just felt really confident over the Microhinge and slightly soft but firm contact resonated so well. FWIW, I wanted to like the lie-angle balanced putters more than I did and was prepared to spend a bit. I guess putting is the individualistic aspect of our game. Hopefully, I didn't leave anything on the table. Anyone who knows my putting knows I need all the help I can get.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug ·

      The driver swing honestly feels good. Haven't played in a/the course for a bit but did pretty good at the sim place yesterday.  The idea has been to reduce twisting shaft instinctively at impact. For this have weakened left hand grip considerably. Pushed higher up in the hollow of the palm to take out index finger and thumb in pressure application which is a major are major contributors of shaft twisting at impact. On the flip side, right hand grip is way down in the lower part of the middle fingers. Not using index or thumb much at all. It also is designed to prevent getting underneath the shaft too much at impact. More of a float-loady  'paint the ball' feel through the ball. Overall address and neutral grip keeps both lead and trail sides on respective sides of the shaft instead of over or underneath the shaft. It seems it allows/promotes moving the shaft/club unit in unison with wrist/elbow/shoulder joints similar to an elephant swinging it's trunk. It does not feel like I am guiding the club path or trying to control club face at all. Fairly organic. Playing TPC Sawgrass in about a month. Will see how it all holds up. I hear its a good test.. heh.
