Hello all,

I'm from The UK and have heard quite a lot of good things about this site. I have been following your stuff for quite a while and thought I would join your discussion threads. I am a relatively good golfer as you can see from my handicap but I am also a very frustrated one.

I represented my country in my youth and back then thought I was going to conquer the world playing this game. 20 years on I am no better with a very similar handicap to the one I had at 13 years of age. I very quickly got down to this low digit but unfortunately remained there. I have been through many different coaches but no one could help me.

I have however been reading some of the stuff on this site and this has helped. For the first time in I don't know how long, I have started to improve again. I hope that now that I have joined, I can pick some of your brains and also add my views.

To a fruitful future on The Sand Trap.

[@]BENtSwing32[/@], you have got to read some of the [@]Patrick57[/@] stuff. He has created new accounts multiple times and been caught and banned multiple times. I think he has even posed as a woman before.

LMAO!! Who was/is @Patrick57 and how did you know The Grip Man was him??

He's a professional troll, has some serious issues. We can match several things to check whether it's the same person.

    • Day 159: did a stack session.  
    • Day 84 - 2024-12-23 I hit balls for 20 minutes after lessons and after getting down a BodiTrak for resale. Hinge. Path was weirdly consistent today at 1.6° or so ± like 0.8° only.
    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
