Hello from Roanoke, Virginia. I am looking forward to learning and participating in the discussions. I've learned a lot from the site already.

I'm new to this site but not to golf. In my late teens and 20s I played a lot but since having a family, I only get to play about 10 times a year. I've been able to mostly maintain my (decent) swing, making center-face contact but struggling with clubhead path and face angle on the full swing.

I'm fairly small for an adult male (5'6", 140 lbs) and I've never been able to find a good source of information for what, if any, difference that makes for a good golf swing. Any suggestions for threads to help the short golfer?

Thanks,

Baog

      Day 40: short range session. Worked on my drill mostly. Finished with some full swings and driver swings. Range was packed because it was so nice out. Solid session though.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 5, 1/3/26.  Today was a weird day schedule-wise, but I did find 15 minutes to hit 6-iron shots (indoors, off a mat, into a net).  I also got to thinking about yesterday's round and, other than a few thin shots (that I think were weather/grip related), I didn't have any wild non-driver shots, which was weird for me.  I need to get back to video, which is tough in my setup. Also, this wouldn't count on its own, but anyone reading this and thinking about doing their own 5 minutes daily, check out Fit for Golf's latest podcast episode.  It's only a few minutes and Mike does a great job talking about the importance of doing a bit each day.  That also reminded me, I let my FFG subscription lapse, I'm going to renew it.
