  1. been making some changes this winter to my putting stroke and am all over the place. Feel like i am constantly willing the ball into the hole. help needed please http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfzvHVmWq7U&feature;=youtu.be
  2. as an fyi... most public courses will have significantly higher rates than normal the week of and before the open. you are best off trying to play the week after. A bit south of SF, buy Bayonet is also worth a play; will be in great shape since it is hosting PGA CPC next year.
  3. its called bravina; more geared towards people with social anxiety; theoretically would help with the yips
  4. latest picture of me at the top of the backswing... wont add my thought as not to bias results. Thanks, http://twitpic.com/5qup1v
  5. more often than not, you won't even be asked. the single will just show up on the tee box.
  6. about half of my play is alone... usually late at night when so i can practice.
  7. Ended up getting the SunMountain SpeedCart. After one round, I feel like I have more energy on 15-18. The real interest will be conditioning. I usually lose 3-5 pounds per month in season. Wonder if I will continue to see the same weight loss.
  8. i think it is a good idea, but also require golf courses to provide more tees. For courses with a typical 3-tee setup this can be problematic. Most men wont play from the front / ladies tees even if there game deserves it.
  9. i've tried putting it off for a while, but the time has come. A sore back and chronic hamstring problems are forcing me to start using a push cart. I thought i could just carry my club until I was fifty but this middle aged body is finally giving in..
  10. one piece or two (multiple) piece.... am i in the minority here with a two price takeaway... with a one piece sequencing is always much more challenging for me
  11. interested in what everyone hear uses to trigger their downswing. For me, it a small bump of the right knee (Im right handed)-- for me, it help me get weight forward and drive legs better than any other swing thoughts.
  12. Trying hitting balls today. Biggest issue was not being able to maintain my knee angle and occasionally letting my weight go on the wrong side of the right foot
  13. try this--- put a tee on the ground 1 inch in front of the ball. focus on hitting the tee.
  14. need advice guys, just sprained my right toe moderately today. I can walk OK but cant really get a good push off (im right handed) if i keep playing with this while it heals, do i risk grooving a bad swing? what would you do?
  15. My biggest swing issue is over rotation of my forearms/wrists before impacts, especially on longer clubs played further up in the stance. This drill forces my left wrist to be square at impact. This drill was originally created for players who under rotate and can't get their wrist squared, but has the same impact
  16. been told this a few times and I really don get what it means.
  17. Was having trouble with some pulls and pull hooks with my driver and three woods. Here's the drills. Take a full easy swing and take your right hand off the club right before imoact (eg as you release it). After doing it a few times I was perfectly square at impact. It was like a switch went on.
  18. ahina should launch higher, it has a lower kickpoint. Bith solid depends on what you want. I play the rip but i play in a ton of wind and need to keep it low
  19. If its before a round, something like this on the range. Also, i always putt and chip before i go to the range. If I have limited time, i will only chip and not go to the range - 3 wedges with feet together for balance and turn - 3 wedges just about 90 yards - 3 8 irons about 100 yards - 4-5 full eight irons, basic shot pattern (high draw) - a couple hooks, cuts and punchs with 8 iron - a couple hooks, cuts and punchs with 5 iron - a few hybrids - a couple hooks, cuts and punchs with driver - a few reps each of every club i will hit off the tee on the par threes - a few three woods if i am going to hit it off the tee - wedges for distance; will go after three targets, will hit until i knock one to a couple yar - one shot of whatever i will hit off the first tee
  20. i have no issues with this, but i know there are several people at my club who complain and say its unbecoming to the game.
  21. wants some thoughts on this question. i think it may be a generational thing, but I know there are lots of opinions on this one. What's your opinion on chewing gum while playing golf? Obviously, it isn't acceptable to smack gum when someone is hitting or to spit it out on the course. Do you think it is OK for someone who just chews gum while playing?.
  22. Need new grips on my irons. Does anyone have the new lamkin n-dur grips
  23. need new sand and gap wedge. anyone have any wedges they particularly like? I have always played vokey, but thinking about Cleveland or Scratch or Callaway
  24. last round of the season. 400 yard par 4 Dogleft left with a stream on the right. Push my driver into a river. Take a drop onto a downhill lie and push a 8-iron pin high into a 14 inch pile of dry leaves. Played the shot like a bunker shot and blasted out-- 1 hop and in for par.
  25. I think it may be time... :)
