Hello Everyone,

 

I just wanted to introduce myself.  I decided to join today after reading some of the posts on here.  I am an avid golfer that is trying to improve in every way.  I am in the process of getting fitted for a new driver for starters.  Should everything go well with that I will be getting fitted for my irons as well as the SAM putting fitting.

 

I am currently a 16 handicap, I know that pretty much sucks but I am right there.  I struggle hitting the fairways off the tee for starters and struggle at putting.  However, I am in the midst of changing a few things after watching a few Youtubers that I have been following for years.

 

Really looking forward to chatting with everyone.

 

Chris

I'm not too far from you in Medina. We'll have to meet up for a round soon, maybe at Brandywine.

You're only about an hour from Norwalk, OH. Join us for the outing!

It's handicapped, and a great time.

Oh, and welcome to TST, @Duby27.

What is the cost if I could only show up for Sunday?  I am trying to see if I can be free for both days, but worst case maybe Sunday.

Probably about $10 less, maybe $15. They're not charging us much at all for the Saturday nine-hole one-club scramble and pizza thing. Saturday doesn't start until later, too, so hopefully you could make both.

Ok cool.  Let me see what I can do.  Should have a answer by tomorrow or Friday at the latest.

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      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.

      Keep us up to date with your findings, please.  I'm not looking for a putter, but I'm sure you're not alone in your venture to get the putts rolling better.
