@iacas, speaking of interesting setups with a net, how did your inground net setup work for you guys this year?

It was really nice. Stayed surprisingly dry honestly and in good form. No rust.

That's one way to keep your head from going back.

I need that but in front of my head to help break the bad habit I have of my head moving forward once I reach the top of my backswing/into my downswing

Maybe there's a way to jury-rig a laser, so that when you break the light, it beeps, like for alarm systems.

I think a physical barrier is much more effective as it prevents the undesired motion rather than just tells you you’ve done it wrong.

You don't have a physical barrier when you play, though.

Yes but my take is that if you will do hundreds of reps in a manner that doesn’t allow the movement it will ingrain itself.

There's a lot of trains of thought on that. Ultimately, I think that things that "make" you do something are limited. There are three kinds of training aids, basically: those that make you do something, those that alert you when you do something wrong, and those that alert you when you do something right.

I think a mixture of those along with the use of things like mirrors and videos is the best solution, not just relying on one of those types of things.

Alex Noren! Low ceiling? Or tall guy?

I'll give you one guess what I'm hiding from...  burrrr

Thinking very seriously about a Skytrak for the winter setup.

A little snow shouldn't scare you...Send it down to us, we have none.  In fact, I've not lifted a shovel all year.    Is your garage heated?   It looks like the ceiling is tall enough for a full swing.    If my basement was tall enough, I'd buy a Skytrak but I don't want to heat the garage.

Is it just me or more people than ever are setting up stations wherever they can because video, cheap nets, internet?

I don't think more people are setting up stations wherever they can because of the internet, I think we are seeing more interesting setup locations because of the internet and social media.

That top one looks like it's in a basement, and if my ceilings were high enough in my basement I would 100% do the exact same thing.

Also, I definitely clicked the play button multiple times on both images thinking that they were videos

Oy, sorry about that. 😂Trying to keep it simple.

I see three stations. And a Flightscope? Can we be friends? Pleeease? This is like a golf budhole.

That one reminds me a bit of @boogielicious practicing in a dance studio. 😉

 

This guy seems to look like he's working on the Jordan Speith "chicken wing".
