I'm actually still curious what @mythbuster thinks is this "neutral setup." I wish he would just spit it out instead of feverishly combing through his thesaurus and trying to impress us with his delusional wisdom. Ya never know, maybe his quackery could lead to a real discussion on the golf swing.

He is currently restricted from posting. 

Maybe he'll spend time reviewing the "power triangle" theory in @newtogolf's blog.

all of our greatest philosophers were ridiculed for being delusional, ironically by those in society afflicted with traits of neophobia.

that said, i had a LenardoVinci "moment" just recently which has virtually changed my whole concept of the golf swing.

it involves the left hand only, and understanding that everyone"s hand is different. why i am so excited about this is because it has a very desirable effect of  the movement of the left shoulder .

 to be fair, it is only a notion at this stage as i haven't been able to put the theory into practice, due to time constraints attributed to the festive season, but  i just have a hunch that this could be the "holy grail" of all our golfing dilemmas.

hopefully, i will still be around so i can keep you posted with my progress.

 

 

 

I routinely troll and make things up. Please use my posts for your own amusement, and little else.

Hopefully. . .I hope you stick around.

Post some videos and actual swing thoughts during your swings.

I'm also guilty of not posting recent videos, and plan to in the up coming year.

You will not be.

We gave you all the rope in the world, and you simply used it to hang yourself.

Goodbye.

Thanks!   It's very true that calling out people who are disruptive can be both entertaining and positive.   People on this forum are very helpful, very nice and very direct.  Trolling here is a big dis-service to a community of people who take the time to answer questions, and give people a chance, and give up their time for fellow golfers.

    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry 
    • So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...  
    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
