Why substitute a 4 iron? The putter is going to simplify the experiment the most. And you can do it in the comfort of your home without some fancy ball monitor.   My guess is that you intuit

It's not. It's a known fact. Jacobs said the ball started along the path. That's incorrect, and can lead to a whole host of diagnoses that are incorrect. There's no harm in admitting that wh

Since learning the 'New ball flight rules' it's become much easier to work the ball; especially getting out of the woods through a narrow gap.

Yeah. I've heard from many people who, using the "old" laws, ended up with situations resembling your avatar! :-)

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff.

      Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.

      Wordle Daily Puzzle

      First time playing this game, Spanish is my native language. It was impossible for me. After 4 worlds I run out of worlds that have the letters I've already found that can be combined with the remaining letters.. just repeated the 4th world to knew the answer. I know the world but it never came to my mind.
