I don't post as much as I should.  But I read here a lot.  And I watch a lot of the posted video's.  I've been working on my game pretty hard, especially off the tee and the irons, iron play has always been horrible.

I plan on getting a Evolvr account setup.  But I have been improving in the mean time.

Todays round, I hit 10-14 fairways, 8 of 18 GIR, which is miles better then my previous best of 4.  And a couple shots that were on the fringe only a couple ft from the green.  No OB and no lost balls today, and I pitched the ball today as well as I ever have.

Basically all of this I have to credit from the great hint, video's and discussions on the swing.  I still have a long ways to go to reach my goals, but I was only 1 shot off of my scoring goal for this year(might have to adjust that a bit lower :)  But the foundation is starting to come together.

Its a great feeling to know that your ball striking is improving, yet there is still lots more room to get better.

There is a huge amount of knowledge on this site. Sometimes you may need to search but Erik and Mike and many others have dispensed an enormous amount of really quality information. I think it is a great idea to thank them for having a place where all this knowledge resides where we can question it better to further our own understanding.

I'll second the OP's sentiments.  I don't post nearly as much as I read, but this is an extremely helpful site with a wealth of knowledge and people that actually care enough to give insightful comments and constructive feedback.  Long story short, keep up the good work!

Golf is hard.

I'll echo these sentiments. Once you get to know the posters on this site, you know what information is rock solid. I've improved my game just by being a member. The moderators are top notch.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
