Looking for any and all suggestions on how you all go about structuring your local friends golf league. What has worked best, what sucked, any other useful nuggets of information geared towards simplifying everything. We are using golfsoftware.com to manage it all right now and it's working well. We've got about 20 guys ranging from 1-12 handicap for 9 holes. The league runs for about 10-12 weeks twice a year and is based on low net performances to establish a first half 1st and 2nd place, a second half 1st and 2nd place and then a season long low net 1st and 2nd place. This locks in 6 people for our Championship round and a play-in is held for the two remaining spots for a 8 person championship shoot out. What are we missing out on?

I honestly can't believe how overwhelmingly cringe everyone is acting. From the lady doing the press conference announcements/introductions to the commentators during play. Everything is so forced and it comes off very awkwardly. That's not even me jumping to conclusions because I don't support them, that's just my general feelings every time anyone opens their mouths and says literally anything. Another thing, Matthew Wolff looks like he's on some hard drugs or something.

Max Homa keeping it real. “You can buy a tour for sure, but you can’t buy my goals and my dreams.” Max Homa calls 'bull----' on key LIV Golf vs. PGA Tour talking point Max Homa made his stance on the state of the golf world and its evolving situation quite clear in an appearance on the No Laying Up Podcast.

I spoke too soon I guess 😆

This putting from Rory is kind of bonkers.

What happens if DJ gets hot and just declines media coverage all week. Pretty troll but a real possibility I guess.
-
This whole week I was hoping one of these guys would have a fire lit under their ass and actually speak up about it. Very fitting it ended up being Rory with his 21st win, just one more than someone else. LOL, what a damn Legend. Mic drop.
-
Next week should be entertaining to say the least with a few of these guys in the field. I'm kind of hoping Golf Channel puts together a "round table" of people like Brandel Chamblee, David Duval, Eamon Lynch, etc and let them go off on this whole situation during one of the biggest events of the year.

Love them. Looks like some new tech with the T200. Wonder when the "classic" line will appear with the traditional MBs and CBs 👀

Drink every time you hear "marine layer". Just kidding..you'd die 🤓

Pretty damn accurate, I just got my wedge. Order date was 4/11 and today is 6/17 so I'm right at 9 weeks. Specs are -1/2'' off the shaft, true temper s300 shaft and winn dri-tac midsize grip. -
As someone who is still getting comfortable with this and recognizing my own tendencies this is what I see. Around 8-9 seconds you do the "press" action with the pad and let the thumb lie flat but then you move your thumb back around 11-12 seconds in. Video for reference with the "press" vs the "wrap". Again, I'm still getting comfortable with this myself and if I'm giving bad advice someone please tell me to stfu.

Seemed a bit odd. He gone! Lol

Troll account?

No wrist problems that I'm aware of and I'm able to do everything in the pictures/videos just fine. I've tried gripping it with holding the club up and I've gripped it down at my side used in Mikes example and I end up in the same boat with it slipping towards the palm at some point. I'll be posting another video of it all soon.
-
First videos so I have a running history of it all. Since these videos were taken we are trying to get me out of my palm with the grip in the lead hand, relax my trail arm and get my shoulders more square(less open), get my hand off the top of the club with the trail hand. Will update soon!
-
I feel like this is what's happening with me as well. I feel like I've identified when I'm actually not "wrapping" the heel around vs just pressing it down and to the side but I know it's sliding back more towards the palm. Continuing to work at it. Working on this as well and beginning to think I'm brain dead or something. Lol
-
I feel like if this is going on then it's absolutely okay to be as big of a rules aficionado as possible and while you're doing this be as loud and blatant as possible to let the entire group know how much a total idiot the guy is being. 1 of 2 things will happen. They will own up and start playing correctly or they'll just stop playing with you guys, probably make up some excuse of how he isn't enjoying the game anymore or some BS.

Titleist must be absolutely slammed. I recently canceled my order on my T100 irons because I felt like I was being lied to about the whole order and I'm still waiting on a singular 56° wedge I ordered in April. Bad year to want new golf stuff unless it's standard off the rack I guess.
-
I wouldn't know what to do with 5 wedges. I've never had a full bag but I'm working on that this year. For a really long time I did everything with a stock set PW but I've had a 52° for a little while now and it's been my work horse for everything inside 115 yards. I've got a 56° on order that I've been waiting on since early April. So when I'm done I'll have a 52°, 56°, 60° for wedges not including stock PW.

Jon Rahm withdraws from the Memorial Tournament after testing positive for COVID-19 PGA TOUR Statement regarding Jon Rahm On the evening Monday, May 31, the PGA TOUR notified Jon Rahm that he was subject to contact-tracing protocols, as he had come in close contact with a person who... Pretty wild situation.

I think that was a very informative read, specially since I just started working with you! I think I might be the opposite of this Student, as in I will do nothing since I'm not 100% certain of what I'm suppose to be doing sometimes. I'm not the type to scour youtube or golf digest in search of swing advice, I like to keep my swing as simple as it needs to be so I can be as "swing thought free" as I can be. I feel like this is both good and bad. Good because I've never been overwhelmed with swing thoughts but also bad because up until now if I don't have a specific drill I just remain where I'm at doing the same things (grip/setup). I like clear and precise advice/drills and I also like going slowly until I fully "get it".

Been looking forward to seeing all the changes ever since they showed coverage of them ripping up the greens during last years tournament!!
