Great idea I think as it seems more personal.

When I can update my signature I will. I try and sign my messages with my first name anyway.

Until then, no guesses to what my first name is from my user name...

Bumping this thread for any new people.

If you can add a signature, consider adding one with at least your name. It helps everyone get to know you a bit better.

Tom R for Thomas. Meaning & History Greek form of the Aramaic name תָּאוֹמָא (Ta'oma') which meant "twin". In the New Testament this is the name of the apostle who initially doubts the resurrected Jesus. So if it seems like I dont believe you dont feel too bad. Just where is that signature icon on the mobile site?

Yeah, but I see other Tom names so I figured Tom R, and I havent yet gotten to a PC to do it, the mobile version has no signature control.

I'm too new to add a signature, too, but whenever my wife calls "Larry", I come running.  Especially if there is food in the offing.

My family in Ohio still calls me Gene, but I haven't gone by that since grade school.

Effective by the end of tonight, Forum Leaders are basically required to include their (first) name in their signatures.

That would mean @ghalfaire , @Dave2512 , and some others should hop on this train soon. And I'm only mentioning the two of you because you posted back-to-back in one thread and I saw that you were both Forum Leaders.

@Crim too. And others.

Why? You can just edit your signature in your profile and put your first name in...?

    • Day 14, April 22.  This morning, before going to work, I took the time to hit two dozen balls (indoors, off the mat, into the net), all with a 6-iron.  As before, this was focused on the pelvis separation and the length of the backswing -- yesterday's video view was encouraging that I'm making progress.  
    • Hey folks, Here's be a better video that outlines some of my challenges.  Any suggestiosn welcome.    
    • I enjoyed the distance wedges episode. It's something that I've not really taken the time to figure out for sure, but I went to a local trackman place over the winter and tested my four wedges (PW, AW, 54, 58) and got four yardages with each one. I am using Dan Grieve's method - you have a 1, 2, 3, and "full". The number references the number of clubhead widths between your heels.  I never really got to grips with the clock method - I'd find my 9:00 one day would go 40 yards and the next day 60 yards purely based on how fast I happened to swing it, but I couldn't turn that off and I was basically at sea with the speed method (Wesley Bryan does this - he takes almost a full swing for a 15 yard chip). The Grieve method I set my stance width and that really limits how much my swing moves back and forth and the speed seems to be naturally more consistent.  Anyway, I wound up with four yardages for each club - PW 48, 80, 112, 127; AW 41, 73, 101, 112; 54 36, 57, 91, 98; 58 28, 47, 81, 86 So, in order, I have 28, 36, 41, 47, 48, 57, 73, 80, 81, 86, 91, 98, 101, 112, 112, 127 which gives me a pretty good set of numbers. I do have a big gap from 57 to 73, but I can do a 2.5 58, which is giving me about 64. Then as they noted you can give it a bit more, or grip down on a club too to adjust a little bit. It's really useful and very freeing to just know what to do. When you have a 54 yard pitch, rather than pulling my 58 and thinking how hard is 54, I can just take my 54, do a "2" swing and just grip down a little and I'm in decent shape.  Incidentally, Erik talked a bit about watching Scheffler picking off his yardages to within a yard. I've watched DJ do that too with his wedges. Scottie does it trying to hit it all the way up to like 200 exactly with a 6-iron and he's hitting it 200.5, 199.7, etc. Absolutely mind blowing how good his distance control is. Insane.
