Hello everyone, The name: Once during a round took my shoes and socks off to try and hit out of water. (Look easy when I saw it on TV once, so I naturally had to try it). All I will say about the shot is that it did not end well. I was completely soaked and covered in mud and at the end of the round discovered I some how had a couple of small rocks in my socks. By the way I would still do it again (practice makes perfect). My golf game summary: horribly inconsistent. I say horribly because I can go out play 9 holes and shot low to mid 40's one day and turn around and shoot in the 60's the next. It is usually always a differnt part of my game each time that struggles. Hoping to get some practice in over the winter. The wife generally frowns upon me swinging my clubs in the house, but sometimes it just has to happen or I'll go crazy. Anyway, hoping the golf talk on this forum will help me keep my sanity until April. Mike

Welcome, I'm just south of you un Northern Il. I played 27 on Monday but I'm afraid that may do it for a while. We may get lucky but I'm not counting on it.

No problem national golf center in big bend has a heated outdoor range is open 9-8 every day I think. There is a simulator in Oconomowoc and another simulator in Genesee at a pool and spa place. Both require appointment.

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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! 😭

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      By boogielicious · Posted

      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.
