I have nothing to add about your swing, but what is going on with that fan?

That's what happens when you swing a club in the living room.

While not as exciting as doing it on a par 72 course, finally did break 80 yesterday - 78/Par 70. It was a solo round so can't post. It's my first ever no-sixes round but since I can't post the score

It’s a feature. @GolfLug did that to make room so he could swing.

@mchepp, @DaveP043. Y'all are a trip..lol. The blades slant down. Something about this design being able to funnel more air.

Leave it to @GolfLug to have the most fancy fan I have ever seen. But what I really wanted to ask is how is the piano going?

Wife's idea about the fan. I wouldn't dare to come up anything like that on my own.

Piano? I don't know, I just use it as a back stop. My kids use it to make some interesting sounds. They claim it to be 'music'.

That's right.. Since I have soooooo much width in my swing. Not sure why @iacaskeeps hammering me about not having enough width. 😜

The only hammering needed here is to smash up that fan and get a normal one. 🙂

Very good. Now do that a million times, and record yourself often and make them at least as good as those.

This is the right advice pretty much at all times in golf 🤣

Notice how quickly that right elbow bends?

(That’s still way better but you can be wider.)

Ok, the left arm feels full stretch at A3 (ish) already. Struggling to stretch it to give right hand further room to not fold. 

I can raise the hands higher but then would look like Count Drac and head starts tilting left (forward) and at that point I can barely see the ball.

I know you don't do Android but wife has i-phone if you have time for a facetime lesson this weekend.

@boogielicious, where is the video of the drill wherein you keep the right elbow straight by keeping tension on a piece of rope? I can’t find it?

The right elbow can be farther off your ribs, no? 🙂

Per convo, will add bit more tilt down and torso turn and get left arm to rise up higher.

Well, what I am trying to say that the left arm is acting as the rope I am stretching to max. 

Anyway, I will post something better tonight.

You're the one who added that. The later videos seemed fine here.

Right, but you can stretch it "around" you more, or "in front of you" more. The right elbow can both bend and/or elevate.

Yeah. Basically.

Your left arm can be straight but if you bend your right elbow and pull it "behind" you, you're very, VERY narrow. Conversely you could lift your arms straight up in front of you and be VERY wide.

In this thread. Page 3


It is also similar to the soft trail arm challenge feel.

      Lesson and Custom Fitting and Clubs - Chicken and Egg

      Lesson and Custom Fitting and Clubs - Chicken and Egg

      By turtleback ·

      So I have a son-in-law that I really like, and he plays.  Not great, averages 100-110 on a normal course.  For his birthday I got him a series of 5 lessons (he's never had lessons before) from a well-regarded local pro.  He hasn't started them yet.  For Christmas I am getting him a fitting and clubs from a local clubmaker with credentials and equipment out the wazoo:   And following the fitting I will be having the clubmaker make him 13 clubs (he already has a putter he really likes and putting is one of the better parts of his game).  I'll let the clubmaker and him work out how many 'woods', how many and which hybrids, how many and which irons, and how many and which wedges.  Other than paying I don't want to inject myself into the process. So my question for the board is which should happen first, the fitting/building of the clubs or the lessons?  I can see arguments on both sides and I just thought this would be a good place from which to get some input.  Thoughts?

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Day 2: 12/11/2024 Today I spent another half hour or so in front of the mirror working on my PPJ. I still feel like an orangutan performing brain surgery with a hack saw. It's a big departure from the way I had been timing my moves in the past.  Here's a quick video of my practicing.
