Hello & Greetings as well from Scotland,

I'm from Carnoustie but live in Reykjavik and I'm home for the summer and finally got back into golf, I played a bit when I was young (around 12-15) but then stopped playing altogether and didn't have such a keen interest in the sport then and haven't really until the start of the summer, I came home for summer holidays back home and went round a 9hole golf course in Dundee (basic one for learners) and was managing to swing the club reasonably ok and doing quite well so decided to go for 18 on a local course again and although shot a very high score and fluffed up a few shots I was happy with my game and got really into it,

Greetings to all from me.

I just did a visit to Scotland, let me tell you there are wonderful opportunities for fun and good golf. I was in St.Andrews,Dufftown and Glasgow and everywhere in between.
If you are just starting golf, always remeber it's suppose to be fun and I met some extremely generous and wonderful folks while there. So enjoy the game and remeber its a game.

      Too Old ?

      By Shindig · Posted

      Hi @RetiredOldMan!  I am glad to see you are still playing and having good scores.  I hope that when I am 79, I am not only able to play, but still able to produce as good scores as you have been doing.   I look forward to hearing more of your success and your opinion of the senior flex shafts.

      Too Old ?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)

      LIFT Your Freakin' Arms

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.
