Longer The Club, The Worse It Gets
Frito replied to Azandford's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
You could try doing this , its what I do. Get a bucket of balls and start with your 7 iron and get warmed up with it untill your hitting it consistently then work your way up to a 6 5 4 ect.. when you get to the trouble clubs and hit a few bad shots go back to the 7 and feel that good swing and contact then work your way back up again. remember to keep that same tempo and feel and bring it with you up to the clubs your having trouble with. -

I thought I saw a post ryder cup match interview with furyk saying that they got played through and that it was "akward".But I barely saw the interview because someone was flipping though channels so I dont' know if it was out of context ? anyways funny if true.

Is pebble beach a hard course?
Frito replied to ronaldkuntoro's topic in Golf Courses and Architecture
When those guys were trying to break 100 wasn't the difficult part about it being on live t.v. ? -
Was wondering how many of you are if any ..? How many of you guy's have a golf swing thats not very good or maybe even not quite decent , but just don't care about improving it that much and really just go out and play the game ?

I'd perfer to see an athlete whose heart is in what he's doing.

Did you read his golf digest interview with him saying he could live with out golf. what a lamer . i hope he loses for saying that.

Somone told me this one time on this forum and before i started doing it right everything went left. Your arms should feel like there doing Literally nothing on the down swing. nothing at all, use your turn and try to get a "whip" feel. also your grip pressure should be equally loose im pretty strong too and i allways had a death grip on the club. ya and let your arms hang down like a limp noodle at adress and make sure they don't tense up.

I suck too, but some of the people I play with used to be worse-alot worse.They eventually got a little better but i get annoyed at times too still. I think instead of EVER giving them another tip just say get lessons - a few times of that and they'll stop turning to you time and time again for advice. You might tell them about this site or a rules site casually and hope they catch on. If you want to ditch them just say you want to play by yourself for awhile to get your game more together, they'll understand. Just make up whatever you have to so you can cease any kind of obligation and that way your not gonna alienate yourself at work. Your not a bad person imo golf is frustrating enough without having to deal with noobs on top of that, don't feel bad for wanting to have fun.

The 'share a personal golf tip' thread
Frito replied to 8.5_Drive's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
My two tips that I wish i could have grasped alot earlier. 1. Grip the club very lightly , thanks but no thanks to golf digest. 2.No arms - forget you have them and don't muscle it with them. I'm hitting a shank everytime I use them or don't get them loosened up enough. -
Only you can know if your child is ready for something like that. Think it over. Dang your kid rocks , he's so good he may not need lessons lol.
-
The tension thing is 100% of what causes my shanks. Try doing the club waggle once you adress the ball making sure your hands /biceps/triceps ect are relaxed.

The "thing" on the left reminds me of a "thing" I saw in this movie where a girl was "teeing up" herself. The movie wasn't about golf if you know what I mean.

Saw someone two days ago, some guy and his wife, his wife took 6 hits all of which just rolled barely off the tee box.She re tee'd it every time. So like 14 off the tee she belts it like 140 yards maybe. When I first started I prolly topped it like 10 times down the fairway to about 100 yards.

sounds like some good advice , thanks guys

So heres my situation and what I was wondering. I've gotten pretty consistent with my 3/4 swing. I use it with every iron and get decent ball striking results all around. Heres my question, some of you low handicappers will have to think back, but.. when did you make the transition between a 3/4 and a full swing? Just been thinking about when I'm going to start trying to get a full extension it's just that I'm not that flexible and that anything beyond about 80-85% seems like too much and throws me off - a completly different world of swinging. Anyways anything goes as far as feed back hit me with any thoughts , opinions or ideas you've got. Thanks ps Im getting the technique i just need more distance - hitting 7iron like 140 -145

I've never been to an indoor golf simulation type place before. I would however go to one if it was nearby my home and the putting on an artificial green seems genius instead of putting out on a simulator.

ROFL 5 stars man awesome fan fiction. My fave part is the 200yards, maybe 210...
