Anyone else send photos, video's etc. to Titleist via nxtube.com? I see there's an ad for it on this website. Anyways, I sent them a few silly pictures I took on my digital camera of how I would get rid of the NXT. Obviously you have to have an actual NXT golf ball in your photo. A week or so later I get a dozen NXT Tour's in the mail with a silly picture of Ian! A few days after that they send me another sleeve for good measure. Some lady at Acushnet sent me an email telling me they were posted online etc. Talk about a fun little promotion and great customer service! Just curious if anyone else has done this?

I wrote about this and encouraged everyone to do it right here in the forum several weeks (months?) ago. You may be the only person to take on the challenge.

Yes, I remember your post. That's how I found out about it in the first place. Thanks for posting it. You can register for their daily drawing (good luck winning that) but all you have to do is upload photos or videos with a message to Ian and they really will send you your choice of NXT. You have to show an actual NXT in the photo and be semi creative but it's easy. Really cool.

    • Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there. 
    • Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.
    • Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂 
    • I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
