When I picked the game back up about 5 years ago, I shot over 150 at the Nicklaus course here in town. I say over 150 because we didn't count every stroke/swing and miss/penalty/etc. I'm sure that it was scary to play with me that day, as noone knew where the ball was going to wind up.

Lol that's hilarious how you said " I'm sure that it was scary to play with me that day" that's a good one, :P i've played like that before..

Great thread.

Since I took the game back up (beginning of this summer) I shot +34. A few days ago I shot +21 on the same course, so its going the right way at least.

I played some in late Elementary school (I was probably around 10-12 years old) and while we never kept score, I can't imagine how horrible it was....

Mine was a 120 for a +48. It was my first time out 7 years ago. After that i shot a 110 and i think i've only been over 100 maybe 2-3 times since.

Since I basically just picked up the game this year, I shot my worst ever 115 for 18 holes a couple months ago. However my scores have been around 100 since then.

The first time I ever played golf (I was probably 7 y/o), I carded a 171... sine the course was a par 70, I was +101.

Something along the lines of that, except mine was probably that bad after 9 holes, never mind 18.

That's actually not too bad :) for your first time out...

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
