That's funny. :) I wish the french tourist girl part was true. Got my ass kicked by a girl this past weekend. Was the second round of my club's match play tournament. Had just beat a young man the day before, totally unexpectedly. He's also a 5 handicapper, but definitely more consistent than I, better swing, etc. My flatstick and good driving really saved me. Anyways the next day I am slated to play this lady from the UK. She's a 13 handicapper. I definitely should not have gone out the night before till 5am, but there you have it. She beat me so bad, the match was over by the 14 hole...lololol. Now that is an asskicking.

Funny that you should say that. I just came back from the golf shop after trying the Rick Smith glove.

My head pro and I were discussing the Swing Glove one day and loved the idea, but $35 dollars and no way to transfer the mechanism to another glove.

How about using medical tongue depressors. They are flatter and longer than tees, and you can get about 100 of them for $5 from your local drug store.

I use the Rick Smith swing glove along with a Momentus Swing Trainer. I take 5 minutes once or twice a day to do the short drills. Hadn't hit a ball in a month, went out yesterday and shot an 81, on a hilly, unfamiliar course, hitting the ball better than I was at the end of last year. Yeah, I'm pretty happy with the combo.

Nothing in the swing is done at the expense of balance.

I think the medical tongue route may be the best route. Sounds like a plan.

      2026 Masters

      I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.

      Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I mean, I do slide my hips like 7 inches towards the target before impact. PGA Tour average is like 3 inches. I’m not Scottie Scheffler who can get away with it. 🤣 He slides a ton.  For me, I have to feel like I basically just turn. Though, I’m probably over exaggerating a bit with that one video because I’m really trying to push off with the left leg which sends the hip backwards. Ideally, I would be able to get my weight over to the outside of my left foot at impact and into the finish. It’s probably OK that I can slide about 7 inches as long as it’s like only three by impact.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 32 (9 Apr 26) - Grandson is on spring break- puts in to play 9 at our home course.  Used it to work on top of horizon target point for drives and approaches…i.e. pick landing zone (fairway, green) , an intermediate target point and finally what standout feature do I want to hit “over” on the horizon (tall pine, home top, flag pole).    Better l-r dispersion w/5 of 7 drives in the short grass.  Nice little addition to the pre-shot routine.

      I managed to get the full afternoon to watch (Pacific time, so the ESPN broadcast began at noon).  I just saw the first shot I feel like commenting on:  Adam Scott's tee shot on #16 was really good, especially after having what might be the worst kind of Maltese Falcon on #15.    I didn't used to like him, but the past few years he's grown on me quite a bit.
