"would like to get some opinions on what my swing was like" I never took any lessons or really had anyone take a look at my swing. I don't know if it was good/bad or where I was going wrong. It would just be nice to know.

I forgot to add my username into the thread title but I can't seem to find the option to edit my post :/ Sorry!

I've been Playing Golf for: Can't play anymore due to ill health this is my swing from a few years ago. My current handicap index or average score is: No idea, this swing was 2 years after I stopped playing so not at my best. My lowest handicap was 9. My typical ball flight is: Slight fade/straight. The finish was due to me being conscious of the camera it's not usually that exaggerated! I know I don't play anymore but still love the game and would like to get some opinions on what my swing was like. I always had a tendency to pick up my arms to steeply on the backswing when I wasn't playing well.

Trust me, I find it all annoying.

Us poor spazzes :(

I got rid of Bubba Watson because of the religion thing. Not because he's religious, that doesn't bother me at all, he was just too in your face about it. Just STFU already. As for politics, I dunno, it's nice to see how educated/uneducated the pros are when they're speaking their minds. Having Ian Poulter on Twitter has convinced me he's a bit dumb.

Most people walk the course in the UK anyway, I know the course I worked at only had 4 carts available. I can't play without one now so I'm going to be biased. Yay for carts.

There's no way in hell I will ever watch golf broadcast in the US again. I gave up on the PGA and went out for a beer. At one point we had commercials, 3 minutes of discussion, MORE commercials, then about 5 minutes of golf before the same commercials. If you can handle it without your brain internally combusting then you have my respect.

Well, start playing again! Health dependant. By the end of the year I hope to be hitting the high 70s again.

Guinness Book of Records doesn't really mean anything. They're fact checking isn't exactly journal standard. Anyway, I purchased that Hammer driver and my wife came back to me. Then I divorced her for not being Jack Hamm. I'm not even gay.

That's a nice swing considering how long you were playing. With a huge drive I could probably just about roll out to 300. I think I've hit 300 yard drives twice in my life.

“I have been wearing the EFX wristband for a year now and I just came off my best year ever on tour! I have noticed a difference in the way I feel and play, I'm not sure how exactly it works, but it does! I don't feel comfortable playing golf without it!" It's all in in your head, a placebo. Either that or a coincidence you irrationally attribute to wearing a silly wristband. Idiot.

There's a standard size which you'll find everywhere, but most (all?) major manufacturers will do custom fitting. How tall are you? Don't just look at 2nd hand, although it's definitely worth a look, you'll find a lot of clubs even just a few seasons old at cut prices. I don't think I'd ever purchase brand new clubs!

Thanks man! Just need some practice and a bit of confidence I think.

It's a 2 stroke penalty for every whole you fail to declare the extra club. Who rembers this? Ouch! http://www.caddybytes.com/myles_byrne!.htm

Played just my 2nd round in 5 years. Shot an 85 (par 69). Won our doubles match 6n4 and I won the longest drive comp. Some awful shots, some great shots. Can't wait to get the old rhythm back! So good to be playing again :)

Might do it, might not. I don't see how it can be predicted. Jack won at what, 46? He has enough majors left to play.

I can't do tournament play. Fact. It's more than likely nerves/pressure/lack of experience.

69 Par 69 at the course I worked back in 2006. Easy course though, 6 pars, 6 bogeys, 6 birdies. Haven't played much since @ Stupid.

Why would you do this? I like to play golf seriously. I can laugh and joke with my playing partners when shots aren't being taken, but then it's concentration time. Sounds childish.

When I was younger, around 14/15, I slammed down my SW on the edge of the bunker after a duffed shot, snapped clean in half. I haven't broken a club since.

I could only play well when playing with someone with a lower handicap than me.

Yeah, seriously, don't smoke weed if you want to focus on a round of golf.

I hope that's a joke.

Rory wants be arrogant in regards to his golf game, not as a person. Well that's how I understood it anyway.
