I play at a club that has a driving range which is surrounded on three sides by roads. We hear mostly horns but there is the occasional kid yelling you suck or something similar. More often than either, it's a 94 5.0 GT with 9 inch glass pack that roars down the length of the range. That is disturbing. I mean jeez, just a little more lift on the intake and duration on the exhaust valves and he could have a much quicker car.

I remember one time a group of kids pulled up to stop sign, just twenty feet behind were I was practicing pitch shots. I had been there for a while so I was dropping them really close to the flag and they were sticking. A kid yelled, you suck. I turned around and said, you obviously don't know much about golf. The rest of the kids laughed.

One got to admire the talent of someone being able to evaluate your game from a quick run by.

He's probably just relying on the fact that most people suck at golf.  He can say that to every golfer he sees and be right about 80-90% of the time, lol.

Being yelled at by passing motorists has happened to me a few times. Since I quit wearing my Cubs shirt it has apparently stopped. As for getting flashed, I wonder if topless bathing in one's wide open back yard counts?

A whole bunch of Tour Edge golf stuff...... :beer:

There's a local par 3 I frequent that is fairly close to a high school....

The 2nd, 3rd, and 7th hole tee boxes are right next to a road. Needless to say I've heard them all...YOU SUCK and FORE! are the most common I think.

On the course I mentioned previously, the road runs down the left side of the two holes. One common mishit I have is a dead pull. It's actually the longest sort of ball I ever hit. The boogers keep it up and they might need some new teeth.

    • Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.
    • Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.
    • My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
    • Day 6 (7 May 24) - More work in the backyard focused on tempo in addition to setup.  Worked with 6 and 7 irons hitting hard foam balls - used the old MacGregor irons to mix it up a little.   
    • No! lol. But they have to be in the right sequence to play mid-handicap golf or little better. Mostly. And even in that there is range/margin for error in the motions and positions that most normal humans can handle. It helps if you have a decent idea of how a golf club moves around the body like you would any other equipment sports (baseball and hockey might be the closest) After all, fairways are 40 yards wide. Don't overthink it. Be diligent in getting basics right. I will concede that it is harder than it sounds but it certainly is not exact angle/exact position/exact degree of bend/exact speed/exact facial expression, etc, every.... single.... time or the result is horrible death.
