Is anybody here looking for some playing partners; I play alot more than the people that I normally play with, and it really is no fun playing by yourself. If anybody is interested let me know. I'm about a 14 and can get around a course ok. Thanks for reading.

Went from hooking to pushing the ball...
sc golfer replied to d373rm1ned's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I was having this problem as well. What helped me was the thought of holding my hips back instead of trying to clear them. I was more or less rotating my shoulders around myself and thats what was causing it, or so I was told. Try think of starting the downswing with your arms and not your hips. -
1.)From the looks of it this guy has been playing with this swing for a while, it's very consistent. I would say he's around a 12-13 handicap. 2.)I think that all three swings is some sort of pullcut, I would say that all 3 ended up safe. 3.)First, he's going way outside the line on the takeaway, so there I would have him bring on plane so that the club straight at his target when the club was at parallel. Secondly, he shifts his weight way out over his right foot. I would try having him feel that the weight was going to the inside of his foot, instead of over it. Also I don't think that his stance is wide enough, which might contribute to weight shift issue. I think that he's thinking that by swaying he's actuall turning his hips, which he's not at all.

Hey Greenville, SC here too! I try play 1-2 times a week if I have time. PM me if you're interested.

If I were you, I would play from the tees that are just back from the womens. Usually that's the mens standard tees, and you can feel comfortable knowing that you are playing the correct tees.

My misses are usually a small hook, or on the driver if I get out in front of it its a fade. It's getting better with a friend who's a scratch golfer and is giving me lessons. Let me know what you guys think. calling avid golfer and richie3jack. thanks guys http://www.swingacademy.com/swingana...l.aspx?id=1351 http://www.swingacademy.com/swingana...l.aspx?id=1352

I like Sergio Garcia alot in this one, if not him then I like phil. He'll have been there for about 2 weeks getting ready, and it will have helped him alot.

What I meant to say is that anthony kim doesn't have a conventional "jim hardy" oneplane swing. He teaches that you bend the right arm right at the takeaway and fold the left on the follow through. That's obviously not what anthony does in his swing.
-
are you sure that a.k. is using a one plane swing??? Most 1-plane swing guys have shorter swings (not so much width) and you can plainly tell with anthony's swing is he has lots of width. He has a swing that looks alot like tiger's and paul casey's.

Length of the tee: Taller tee over shorter ones?
sc golfer replied to titaniummd's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
I use the 2 3/4" tees and I tee the ball on my driver so that the ball is in the center or just a bit higher on the face of the driver. I never tee it up so that the middle of ball is at the crown of the driver. -
I have a 54* wedge and also use a 60*. I find that the versatility of the 54 is good enough.

Question about different flex for shafts
sc golfer replied to tazrestling27's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
If you're asking what shaft to put in your driver/woods/hybrids then I would go with stiff shaft, but all the other particulars, you are going to have to get on a launch moniter to make sure the shaft suits what you want to do with the golf ball. -
I just tried both of them out at a local golf shop/range, and the f2 is the one for me. The f4 just goes way to high in the air, so I'm going to be getting the f2 with an xflex, probably with the proto "by you" 80 gram shaft. It flew awesome for me. Thanks everyone for your input!
-
I like both of them, but isn't the 906f4 easier to hit? I would like the friendlier one better, but I don't want a club that sets up with a closed face. I'm just wanting a new 3 wood and I like the titleist club, no real reason just that.
-
I'm not sure which one I should get. I was hoping you guys could help me out a little bit. I have a cleveland launcher right now and want to make a switch. I'm deciding between the 906 f2 and the 906f4. thanks a lot for your help

Cheaper 3 woods advice needed. Nickent?

I honestly don't know if theres a difference, I've never hit the Ti. -
Now I actually need help! Emergency.
sc golfer replied to Dent's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
On your 6i dtl, it looks to me like your hands are behind the ball and the ball is way to far up in your stance. For a middle iron you normally want it just ahead of center, not off of your big toe. Take this for what you will, as I am a 15. -

I'll sell the 3wood thats in my sig. It's a launcher with a stiff shaft, obviously used. Let me know if you're interested. -
In need of driver shaft(s) recommendation.
sc golfer replied to myndcraft's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
I'm assuming that if you hit your 5i that far, your driver swing is around 115-120mph. Using that you should get an x-flex probably a torque around 3 and a mid launch. I would try that prolaunch v2. good shaft for your swing. this shaft will also help with the spin as well, bring it down to a resonable range. hope this helps -
I'm actually looking for something like what you have, but have had no luck finding one on ebay as of yet. 65g xflex
-
Which is better? I'm looking for the 905r but can't seem to find one that has the shaft in it that i want, but in looking on titleist's website and Erik's review, they seem to be the same club, but the 907d2 is more forgiving. Give me the pros and cons of both, thanks!
-
Which do you guys think is better and why?
-
you say that your missed are either blocks or hooks. that means you are coming to far from the inside and you're swinging the club very flat, having to time it perfectly in order to hit it straight. it's also the reason why you're not taking divots, you're swinging to flat. try taking the club back on the target line, more width, which will get you more vertical, which will in turn allow you take divots more often. hope that helps

how does face size effect shot shaping?
sc golfer replied to erikpmort's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
no, you're right, less cavity/moi makes it easier to shape and also harder to hit
