  1. Anybody get this thing to work decently? Haven't touched it in the last couple months, but I might break it out tonight. I noticed they did an update to where you can use Tittle directly on your laptop with e6 so you don't have to go through both phone and laptop. Since my laptop doesn't have Bluetooth, I will have to get a dongle... but those seem to be very cheap. My previous experience with it: e6 is awesome, great graphics. Using Tittle itself, I had major connectivity issues, could only do a couple swings without being disconnected (if it ever connected at all) and was totally inaccurate, however I had only used the swing stick. Distance was much shorter than in real life, and I usually hit draws (and hooks) in real life and this thing said I had an inside-out path but hit fades. Short game and putting was terrible but I don't really care about that. Would like to try it again with a club and actually hit balls.
  2. I have only used it with the swing stick so far. The e6 software is awesome. I don't think the Tittle is very accurate though, but like I said I've only used the swing stick so far, I'm hoping it's more accurate with a real club. It keeps messing up when I try to play an actual round, so I've been at the 'driving range' most of the time. It's fun to mess around with. I think the basic mechanics are off....... It says I fade/slice just about every ball, but in real life i draw/hook most of my shots. It shows a bunch of swing metrics after each swing on e6, like club speed, spin, ball speed, club face degree i.e. 5 deg closed at impact, and swing path. Inside-out swings seem to result in a slice with the Tittle, hoping they fix that. I don't really trust any of the metrics besides *maybe* swing speed and club path since I am swinging a swing stick and not even hitting a ball.
  3. I can't find the Tittle X app in the Apple app store. The e6 nice visually looks awesome, but I haven't been able to use the Tittle yet. edit: just found it. All I had to do was delete the space, it's 'TittleX' in the app store if anyone else is having trouble. I feel dumb :)
  4. Sounds like his back is so bad that he can't do a press conference. Not good
  5. Mostly to save money, and because I feel I play better when walking. I take much more time on each shot, thinking about the shot while I walk to my ball gives much more time to prepare than thinking about it as you pull up to the all in a cart. Also, if you hit one way off line, it is much more penalizing when you have to walk way off line and try to find your ball. Another reason that is not listed is because I often golf by myself, and if I have a cart by myself I'm always pulling up on groups in front of me and having to wait. Walking helps to mitigate that.
  6. Big Cat swinging a Taylormade FW. FWIW, he looks to be pretty loose. We've been through this before though http://www.golfdigest.com/story/heres-video-of-tiger-woods-testing-a-taylormade-fairway-wood
  7. A couple weeks ago, I was playing to my personal best ball-striking ability. These were the first few rounds of my season, and my short game was way out of whack and I still ended up shooting 88,89, etc. Since then, my short game has magically appeared and saved me multiple times, but my iron play has became very inconsistent and my tee game with driver/wood/hybrid has been absolutely horrible. I went from hitting 10/14 fairways 2 weeks ago, to hitting just 2/14 fairways yesterday at the same course. And one of those came with a 4 iron. I have been hitting huge slices instead of my normal slight fade. I shot 47-49-96 at the same course that I went 45-44-89 with 5 3-putts at just 2 weeks ago. I feel like I am hitting the ball in the center of the clubface with the face relatively square, so I must be coming over the top. I was looking in the mirror at my set up, and noticed when I have driver/3w/3h off the tee, my shoulders are considerably open to the target. I'm a righty, and my left shoulder has to be pointing between 15-25 degrees left of target. I haven't been able to work on it yet, but I'm assuming this is the most likely cause of my slicing issues. I was wondering more about the effects of shoulder alignment... Should my shoulders be square to the target at address? What about at impact? And what are the effects of improper alignment? Thanks in advance to all responses.
  8. Blues over Pens in the final.
  9. Any guesses on how far he can hit the driver with that swing? It'd be nice if he could still put it out 280, and greatly reduce the risk of re-injury. Regardless how he is hitting and progressing, I think he should wait to come back to the Tour until next year.
