  1. I use this one by Ace and it works quite well for tennis elbow (outside) but not so good for golfer's elbow (inside). It has a tightening dial that allows you to dial up or dial down more/less pressure. http://www.acebrand.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/AceBrand/Home/Products/Product-Catalog/~/Elbow-Strap-with-Custom-Dial-System?N=3294529207+4304+3294605570&rt;=rud I also have one of these around the office and at home by my couch. When I use it, it really helps. http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/gofit/hand-grips.html?MCID=CG-PLA-US&CAWELAID;=120147270000060437&CAGPSPN;=pla&catargetid;=120147270000096059&cadevice;=c
  2. My pro turned me on to Ubersense. It works well for what I was looking for. I also have a GoPro that I have not set up and used yet for my swing.
  3. I've been using a 3.0 on my Scotty Del Mar for about a year. I liked the new black/red/white grip, so I just ordered it. Well, I didn't realize that I ordered a 2.0 by mistake. I decided to keep it and not return it. I waited until my important league matches were over and had it put on yesterday. Although, they say that it's not much difference between the 3.0 and the 2.0, I personally like the bigger 3.0. I'm going to finish the season with the 2.0 and see how it goes. I personally like the fatter grip as it has helped me quiet my hands quite a bit.
  4. Yes, I take 2 on longer putts and one on shorter putts. It seems to help with my distance control and keeps me in my routine.
  5. Well, I finished the book Monday evening. It took me a while to get through it only due to lack of time. Since I started reading it my last (5) 9 holes went like this...39, 41,42,42,42. Being a higher handicapper (18-19) I am truly happy with these last 5 rounds. I usually start dropping my hand about this time of year, but these scores are great for me. I have never shot under 40 and being close that number my last 5 matches has me very excited. The book is fantastic and should be read by every golfer at every level in my opinion. I gave it to my assistant pro at my country club today and am interested to hear his thoughts. Thanks again Erik and Dave for putting this together. P.S. if you are serious about lowering your scores don't put a price on this book if you are in another country. In my opinion, I would have paid $100 for it now that I know for myself how valuable it was for me. Cheers, Rick
  6. I absolutely LOVE this book. Time has been an issue, but have 40 pages left. I can't wait to finish it and read it again. Great job fellas.
  7. I have always worn a glove, but one day recently I decided to hit at the range without one. I seemed to hit the ball better, but haven't tried it out on the course yet. It's still hot here in MI, so once I'm not sweating my ass off while playing, I'm going to give it a shot. I will say that the Nike all-weather gloves are AMAZING in rainy wet conditions. The wetter they get the better they grip.
  8. Erik, I meant I think I was peeking my head turning and looking at target before impact.
  9. All great info fellas. Back to the chipping green on Tuesday. Thanks and Happy Labor Day to all.
  10. How many posts or how long does one have to be a member before being able to edit your signature?
  11. Welcome Steve. I'm also a fellow Canadian (Montreal), but have lived in the Detroit Metro area since '85. I'm also new to the site and it seems like a great place. Do yourself a favor and purchase "Lowest Score Wins". I'm only halfway done, but it's a GREAT read. Cheers, Rick
  12. The more that I think about it I must be moving my head off the ball and not accelerating through enough.
  13. I am fortunate enough that my office is less than a quarter mile from my CC. I try to go 2-3 days a week at lunch and work on my short game. Yesterday in my golf league I wasted 3 strokes on short little chip shots that went about 6 inches and of coarse missed the green. I practice this shot all the time, but when I get into a match I seem to forget everything I worked on. Any tips on this?
  14. I was having the same issue at the beginning of the year and fixed it by doing exactly what Erik described.
  15. It's an amazing book. I couldn't put it down last night. Half way through in a couple hours. Loving it.
  16. Being a higher handicap it's been very tough to not let these shots bother me especially since there are multiple per round. I've been doing a lot better at moving on to the next shot and leaving the last shot behind. My competitiveness takes over at times and I put myself into check.
  17. Just received mine. I can't put this book down...input to come.
  18. I've played a few times by myself and loved it. No stress...can hit a couple of balls and try things out. Of coarse using my first ball as my scorecard ball.
  19. I am an independent insurance agent (home, auto, motorcycle, boat, personal umbrella).
  20. I'm a new member and just wanted to say hello. I have spent very little time on the site, but what I have read has been great. I'm higher handicap golfer (18), but have only been playing constantly for 4 years now. Anyway, I look forward to contributing as much as time allows. I ordered "Lowest Score Wins" and am anticipating it's arrival. Take care. Cheers, Rick Menary
