Hello from illinois

[Edsland]

Hi my name is Ed and I live in Naperville Illinois. I retired from AT&T; about 5 years ago so to fill my time in the winter I drive a school bus. Works out great because I'm off in the summer and we have a 5 hour break in the middle of the day. When the weather is good I'll play 9 pretty often. My wife bought me a Zepp so I'm working on lowering my 12 handicap, other then hitting in the golf dome I'm just waiting for the snow to leave.

Welcome to the site. Poke around… lots to see here and talk about.

Had to google Zepp.  Now Edsland, it's your task to inform all here how that video golf app is working for you.

Looks like a long wait before you get back to the course, given the weather conditions for northern  Illinois.

Long wait for sure, we just had our coldest February in history. The Zepp is great, through the app it shows you if your over or under the plane "top". I'm 60 and my swing speed for driver was down to about 75. After working with the Zepp and bringing my plane to 0 or -5 so I'm not casting any more my driver is up to 85-90. I hit balls a couple times a week at a golf dome and can tell my ball striking has improved a lot. Another thing it shows is your tempo, mine at the beginning was 2-1. It's sup to be 3-1 so after slowing my tempo I'm starting to improve all my positions. My son live in South Carolina and plays to a 3, I don't expect to beat him but I'm hoping next time we play to shock him with a better swing.
