Bad Words, bogey.

Most of the funny parts were in the previews, and you didn't even care about why he was in the Spelling Bee at all.

Particle Fever, Birdie.

But… it's also right up my alley. My wife would likely rate it as "X, Picked Up after 12 minutes."

I don't watch a lot of moves but I watched The Impossible (which my wife had recorded).

I would say it lipped out a birdie because it reminded me of a made for TV movie in some ways and I thought some near miss sighting scenes were a little corny and predictable.

I did think the acting was really good, the tsunami scene looked realistic, and the actual story it's roughly based on is amazing.

Tim's Vermeer . Awesome in parts. Thought it might be an eagle, but it ended in a bit of a dud note so just an easy birdie.

I thought exactly the same thing. Once he was finished, there was very little post analysis. I wished there were more coverage of the differences between original and copy, but that the original is kept under wraps makes that hard. Hey, thanks Queen Elizabeth. I instantly thought of that corner sign from an Apple presentation. The one where liberal arts and technology cross.

I went to Fury this weekend.  It was good, so I'm giving it a par.  Maybe I've seen too many recent war movies, but I find that the shock effect of people getting blown away in combat less startling.  That being said, I liked the premise.  Some of the supporting cast got on my nerves a little, but there's a lot worse you could watch out there.

On the flip side, I watched Captain America: The First Avenger and followed it up with The Winter Soldier.  The first one gets an easy par, and the follow up is still an eagle after multiple viewings.  Guardians Of The Galaxy was a lot of fun, but TWS is easily my favorite super-hero flick.

Interstellar - eagle.

Watched it Tuesday so I've had a couple of days to let it settle in. Yes, it's long, maudlin at times and parts can seem contrived, but for me, it held together, the cinematography, that last half hour, I was totally rapt, it was fantastic, what a combination of science and storytelling. I watched all the trailers and read many reviews and did not get spoiled, and if someone gave away the last chapter to me, I would be pissed. Ending was emotionally satisfying and pulled at the heartstrings, I was dusty, a little bit like a Spielberg movie. Hans Zimmer's soundtrack, yeah, it's loud, but his choice of using the organ and the piano a bit fit perfectly for a space movie. The space scenes are epic, Alright, alright, alright did a fine acting job, as did the supporting cast, it was cool to see Lithgow and Caine together. See this movie in IMAX if at all possible.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      Trail hand wrist in flexion at P1? Same GIF as above. That's tough to do.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      By GolfLug ·

      Yes, correct. Trail hand wrist in flexion at address. And grip up in palm.  I mean he is hitting duck hooks. You can hit them with any path with trail palm turned under the grip. I wouldn't eliminate that as a possibility sight unseen.  Extreme outward path highly unlikely for a high handicapper. $5 says trail palm cradling the grip from way under.

      Low Duck Hook Driver!

      By saevel25 ·

      @ChetlovesMer, I think @GolfLug is talking about almost having the right or left hand under the club. Like extreme strong grip. I would say DJ has one of the stronger grips. The V in his right-hand points towards his right shoulder. Like up his right arm.  I can see two ways to hit a duck hook. In my mind, a duck hook is caused by an extreme in to out swing path. I do not think grip strength is highly correlated with swing path.  DJ has a very strong grip from a PGA Tour perspective, and he hit fades off the tee. Morikawa has a strange weak left hand, but strong right hand and hits fades. Rory has more of a neutral grip and hits draws.  Yep, this ^

      That'd great. I love indoor practice in the winter. In all seriousness. don't be afraid to go out and get lessons. It can take a while to find a swing coach that's right for you. I've had a myriad of them, some good, some not so good. One that I'm actually friends with, but he wasn't right for me as a coach. I work with @iacas these days, and he really helps me... I call him Yoda. I'm sure I improve more because of his lessons than I ever would on my own. Finding a good coach can be like finding the right spouse. ... possibly more difficult depending on where you live.  Secondly, don't be embarrassed to post a MySwing thread. A lot of golfers are like "eh, I don't want everyone to see how crappy my swing is." Don't be that golfer. Be the golfer who says "My swing needs work. Here's where I am at the moment."  Anyway, that's my 2 cents.  Enjoy the indoor facility, but time the snow melts away in the spring, you'll be ready to go.

      Thanks for all the thoughts and tips.  I truly appreciate it.   I’m going to work on it this winter at an indoor golf facility.
