Hey everyone.  New member here at TheSandTrap.com.  I've been a member of golfwrx and 4gea for about 10 years, but new to this one.  Like what I've seen so far.  I live just south of St Louis (actually Desloge, near Farmington), and my home course is Eagle Lake Golf Club (now called Crown Pointe), but get up to St. Louis to play about once every 6-8 weeks or so.

My all time favorite St Louis course is Tapawingo, although its been about 3 years since I've played there.  Also play Annbriar, Stonewolf, Far Oaks, Quail Creek from time to time.

I am a former PGA Professional and have worked at Creve Coeur GC, Eagle Lake GC and Bootheel GC (Sikeston).

Would love to meet some of you guys or just talk golf, on here.  Just wanted to say hi.

I

I play out of Stonewolf. When you come north, give me a heads up.

BTW, I have relatives down in Cape Girardeau and Charleston area. I've eaten lunch at Bootheel, but have never played there.

My wife and I stayed at the motel near Crown Pointe about three years ago: played golf, visited the winery and the tiger preserve.

      Awesome. We were originally going to play Quail Ridge but ended up moving some things around and are going to do the following when we go in May Day 1 Tobacco Road Day 2 Southern Pines and Pine Needles Day 3 Tot Hill Farm There are a couple good course vlog/matches on YouTube at Southern Pines, it looks awesome.

      I got two trips lined up this year.  First, Pinehurst next month. Qual Ridge, Mid Pins, Southern Pines 😁, Mid South, Talamore. I am looking forward to playing Southern Pines since it got redone.  Second, a trip to eastern Wisconsin in early August. Whistling Straights, Blackwolf Run, Erin Hills.

      3 Wood Shafts

      By saevel25 · Posted

      You are probably doing the right thing in having more fairway woods or hybrids in your bag than irons. Just easier to maximize ball speed for you swing speed to get the proper gaps.  A driver is teed up, so you have more leeway there. The 7-wood is probably more optimized for carry for you. A slower swing speed needs higher launch and spin to keep the ball in the air. With the 3-wood, it probably launches too low with not enough spin to keep it in the air.  If you are not going to go get lessons, or do some sort of swing speed training, go get fitted for clubs. Clearly your mix-match of equipment is not optimized.

      32 putts are average for a single digit handicap golfer. Limiting three putting is the biggest task. Speed control is the most important aspect of putting. Probably the 2nd most important is aim.  The putter is going to rotate open a bit on the backstroke. It might stay square to the arc of the putting stroke, but that does mean the face opens up a bit on the backstroke when measured against where the face is oriented at address. Go get a putter lesson as well.
