....... oh... found it... Tom Coyne.

What is Paper Tiger? I've never heard of it.... It's a book?... Did Tiger write it?... if not who did?.... I can't even find it for sale on ebay...

I think taking videos is a great idea. I say if my swing doesn't at least "look" great, then it's not good enough.

I actually don't remember.... but I didn't really care at that point... I might have just picked it up off the green and left.

Yes, bad things can happen.... I was on my way to breaking 100 for the first time last year. I had 89 through 17 holes... And I ended up with a 101 with a 12 on the 18th hole. It sucked!

Thanks. I think it has at least 90 percent to do with flexibility... and I'm starting to understand that a lot better now as I continue taking videos of my swing.

Yep, I definitely see the difference. I've been working really hard on this since I took that video... I think I'm getting closer now

On my last round before the snow fell in 2010, I came to the 166 yard par 3 last hole with a water hazard off to the left. I had 7 balls left in my bag. So I tee it up and hit a pull right into the water. Then I teed it up again and did the same thing. At this point I would usually just drop the ball somewhere up by the green and chip putt and leave. But since I was pretty sure it was my last round of the year, I was going to lose every damn ball in my bag before I gave up trying to hit the green ... Luckily, with my last ball, I hit an awesome shot that landed about 4 feet from the hole!

I have a Callaway FT-I 3W. It's a "squareway" wood.... I've only hit one good shot with it, and I've had it for 2 years... I think it sucks. Can't think of any use for it... Especially off the fairway!

It's a bummer when putting ruins a round. Would have been an 89 if you 2 putted all those holes.

No, I can't! I can't quite turn my head that far.. Should I be able to?!

I know I'm falling over after the shot... but even when I have good balance, I have the same problem.

I've had people ask me to try my club, and I always say yes cuz I'm a push over, but I never want to.

If you're like me, you rarely if ever play an entire round without losing a ball. I am always proud of myself when I make it from start to finish with the same ball. If I break 100 it's been a good day. I know someone that keeps a collection of "retired" golf balls - Balls that's he's played with for a whole round and didn't lose. Anyone ever start a round and realize that you only have 3 balls left and worry that you'll run out before the round's over and have to borrow one from someone you're golfing with... or have to search in the woods for another to keep playing.... or... just go home?

My backswing turns my head slightly and pulls my eyes off the ball and I lose my focus. Sometimes I can see the ball in the corner of my eyes(at the top of backswing), and at worst, my focus is pulled completely off the ball and I can't see it at all. Most of the time when this happens, I still seem to hit the ball ok, but I really want to learn how to keep my head down. What could be causing this?

Alright, It's pretty cold outside and I forgot to tape a front on view while i was still out there(i'll do that later)... and the down the line vid is higher than forearm height... but I've been working really hard on trying to figure out how to not pick up my club like that.. everyone told me to stop doing that but I could never figure it out... (.I definitely need to work on keeping my upper body and hips tilted correctly. I think your tip of pulling my right shoulder back to quiet my hands worked great... I think this looks way better than it used to. Now I really can't wait for the snow to finish melting. Thanks!

Yeah I was looking for some help :D ... alright, I'll work on that stuff, thanks for the info!

Getting high and listening to music is amazing. If there was no such thing as music, I would never smoke again. I've tried getting drunk and listening to music, but it's nowhere near as fun. Plus I tend to just fall right asleep mid-song.... sooner than I want to on my day off work. I'd have to smoke a ton to pass out, which I've never done and would never want to. But all it takes is 6 shots of jack daniels, and I can never stay awake through a cd.

How come you never see Jack Hamm on the long drive competitions on tv? I bought a dozen Bandit balls. Gonna try them out when the snow melts.

I usually have a really hard time keeping my eye on the ball. My focus pulls away from the ball, I still hit the ball ok, but I'd like to be able to keep my head more still.

Can I watch this live on tv in america on some channel?

Hey my name's Paul V. and I'm 23 too.... and I just posted a thread w/video of my swing.

I live in minnesota and have been working on my swing all winter in my apartment. I'm going down to texas next weekend to golf. I'm obviously not hitting a ball so, but does it look like a swing that could break 90? My best score it a 94 for 18 holes, and am hoping I can beat that next weekend.

yeah, that's actually way true...... golf is like my first outdoor type of hobby, and I'm 21.
