  2. Thanks for the feedback. I always knew I went way past parallel on my backswing. The distance in doing so is nice but yeah it is inconsistant. Also thanks for the over the top comment I had a feeling I was doing it just didn't notice how much until I watched my swing on video.
  3. I've been Playing Golf for: 5+ Years My current handicap index or average score is: - My typical ball flight is: High slight left to right fade The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Any feedback is good feedback Videos:
  4. Its funny because Issac just amazes me. His swing isnt the most complete swing and yet he pulls off great shots time after time. I was rooting for Issac to beat anthony in the challenge just because of Issacs attitude but Anthony should of really given himself more of a shot than what he took himself for. Finals for me look like Issac vs Mark aswell. Mark looks like the most complete guy out there.
  5. I wouldn't call mine superstitions but habbits I guess. I do use broken tees only on par 3s. Also if lets say a ball were to hit the road and get a brown scuff I gotta get a new ball. If lets say I hit a wedge shot and the ball dug deep into the groves and took off some of the outer covering I get a new ball. I look for any indents or the slightest mishaps on a ball and get a new one because I'm afraid it will mess with my putting. I also can NOT golf with sweaters on so I always either take it off before I hit or roll up my sleaves. ( its the long sleaves that bother me obviously.)
  6. Well to be honest Im the longest hitter on my course and I average at least 290-300+. Only few people on my course take as long of a swing as I do and take the club back as far as me either. Im a righty and I can see the club out of my left eye when I take it back and not many guys can. So I say alot of it is just swing mechanics, flexablilty and just making good contact.
  7. Pretty simple. Despite Tigers lackluster front nines and those unbearable tee shots for the first 2 days he didn't play all that bad. Colsaerts was just a machine that one day and NOTHING AT ALL Tiger could of done. Poulter and Rose were just so dynamic for the Euros making so many clutch putts. Absolutely great job by Poulter and Rose and even the rest of the Euros. But for sure the hurt and downfall of the U.S. was Stricker and Furyk. I'm not trying to look like Im pointing fingers here but shit happens and they played very very poorly along with a very strong Euro team. Exciting Ryder Cup none the less.
  8. In the second video your swing looks alot better but try to keep a tempo. Try to work out that little pause you have in the top and you will be good to go. Keep a tempo and nice and smooth.
  9. That's odd because I did the SAME exact thing but when I offered to show them the receipt on my phone they accepted that and I was able to play. Different course different rules I guess. But I really don't see the problem when the receipt is right on your phone. Im sorry you had to go through that kinda makes sick when you golf that course next time if you ever do you know what I mean.
  10. Played a par 5 today where you can not play driver off the first whole because of a ditch going across and even a 300 yard drive which I hit doesn't clear it all time so I laid up with a 3 iron but went left into some trees. I had no shot to even get it acrossed the ditch from there so I took my three iron and punched in back in the fairway on the front side of the ditch I then had 230 left to the green which I used my 3 iron once more and made the green and dropped the putt for birdie. Had all the makings for a bad hole if you were to judge by my first tee shot.
  11. Shot a 40 today on the front nine with 4 bogeys and a double with one birdie YIKES! So I knew I had to kick it up on the back and I shot a 35 even par with Par on every hole on the back for a total of 75. I had a scare after the front 9 seeing as I haven't shot 80 in the longest time and don't plan on doing that crap again.
  12. No par 6's but I have played 650 yard par 5's before
  13. Tell me about it I live in Winamac, Indiana (eastern time) and every town around me is basically central time lol. It sucks but Ill be out golfing in the cold weather regardless.
  14. I got a guy that kind of resembles two of your guys responses. He calls a ruling on EVERY SHOT! Doesn't matter if it is sitting cleanly in the fairway he finds something about it and complains. Also when he is putting you cannot be anywhere in sight or this guys freaks out. He always says " I can still see you" your shadow is too long. Half the time I just tell him to hit the ball because I can't stand anywhere where my shadow is going to go away. I can't stand playing with people who wish the were pros so they gotta act like the know what the hell they are doing all the time. I shoot better than him anyway so its always nice to here him complain at the end when I have to play with him.
  15. Speaking of destroying greens at my home course I was driving up to play and the par 3 near the road I noticed a bunch of dirt on the green. So I stop my car and walk up there and someone the night before had driven there car off the road and had done a 360 on the putting green. I didn't know what to think you could see the tire marks from the road all the way to the green. This was maybe 3 years ago and just until last year did the scarring actually start to go away. People don't understand how much money and time it takes to get greens into the type of condition they need to be in.
