It explains why Colin has the avatars blocked at least...

Well, it didn't stop me from visiting his user page and trying to tilt my phone sideways to see if I could see any further up her shorts...

I'm not pictured in my avatar, but do you recognize either/both of the two shown?

Mine actually has to do with something I am working on in the swing.  Also I really like it and will keep it for the foreseeable future.

Correct. The other guy is not a pro but a decent golfer. Picture was taken at a pro-am a few years back.

Some of the members have never changed their avatar for years. Don't you get bored seeing the same one all the time?

I fully expect, if I ever meet you, that you will look like your avatar!  I still have that guitar, and those feet.

I like consistency.

I still have the same profile pic on my FB page from when my wife signed me up 6 years ago.  It's a really, really good pic.  I guess if I ever have to get a new wife, then I should probably change that pic also.  Until then, I'll keep it.

Ok you convinced me. I usually connect from my Chrome browser on my phone, and the mobile version doesn't seem to have the feature of swapping avatars. The desktop version worked fine from my phone though. Pic was on my phone from a recent walk to get coffee during a snowstorm here in VA.

I always get confused when people change their avatars. For example, I thought @Valleygolfer was @rkim291968 because rkim has been using that Calvin pic as his avatar for a while.

Ha I had that avatar a while ago. I will have to change it and I didn't know he had it.

    • That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 40 yrs My current handicap index or average score is: 4.0 factor My typical ball flight is: Straight however sometimes slight draw. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: squirt to the right due to to much arm not enough turn.

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
