  1. Thanks, i will work on video very soon. I always feel like i can't get to the inside which drives me crazy. I know that most hooks are from an inside out path with closed clubface but my ballflight seems out to in and smothered to the right. It seems to get better when i consciously try to aimlefyt of the pin!! Thanks Erik I meant smothered to the left sometimes high hook that goes forever and sometimes lately low runners
  2. I feel stuck at the top of my backswing and have to go over the top and end up hitting a snap hook. I think my posture has become too upright. i keep going back and forth with my stance width and distance from the ball. I seem to be ok with fairway woods and driver. i also think my chin got stuck too my chest. Any suggestions would br awesome!!
  3. Thanks but i have an android phone
  4. Hello I am wondering if anyone can recommend an app. I want to start filming range my swing.

  6. I do not mind golfers in front or behind me in line with the tee markers. i also do not mind if golf partners are to the right outside the tee markers. I get uncomfortable when someone is directly behind , down the line so to speak . is it proper golf etiquette to be inside the tee markers when someone else has the box.? I also notice that golfers tend to be in a hurry to tee off , so if i tee off last they will usually go back to their golf cart or trolley.
  7. I forgot to add that another annoying habit this person has is his phone rings frequently during the round. Usually he answers and tells them he is golfing and will call them back . I just wonder why he does not just silence his phone and let these calls go directly to voice mail. I have trouble finding suitable golf partners because i ask people to not stand behind me in the tee box. this one request leads to a great deal of animosity with the average golfer. I have tried many different ways to address this situation with playing partners to no avail. Usually i will tell them before the round that it is my own peculiarity and not anything that is wrong with them. This method might work for a hole or two than i will have to ask them again. All that being said, this is why when i find one golf partner who will honor this one request I am hesitant to shitcan them. I am very interested in hearing more of other sand trappers stories ,experiences, anecdotes , and most importantly advice. I am motivated to better my game , and would be interested in other golfers mental approach to the game , i.e. " blocking this shit out ." Oh, I forgot to add that the spitting and hacking is accompanied by copious amounts of phlegm and discharge, Sometimes i throw up in my mouth a little. these lung cookies can happen at anytime. For instance, while you are standing over an 8 footer for birdie , getting ready to tee off, or in the middle of your backswing.
  8. Hello everyone. Through the years, I have spent time following threads mostly pertaining to swing tips and etiquette questions. I never thought about joining until now because it was always enough for me just to read other people's posts and usually find the answer i was looking for, or a helpful swing tip that i could use . But this year , things changed , I decided I wanted to start posting . I retired in January 2022 and I have had much more time to golf, but unfortunately i have had a difficult time finding suitable golf partners. Basically, i have spent the last year golfing with someone who i believe to be the most annoying golf partner to ever walk the planet. The partner in question has many annoying traits and habits which sometimes set me off while i am on the course. Firstly this golfer has a habit of spitting and hacking all over, dressing like a slob, accelerating the golf cart in players backswings, constantly stomping on my putting line, and talks very loud due to hearing loss I think. But the most annoying habit he has is standing next to the flag while I am either hitting my approach shot from the fairway or chipping on to the green, now mind you I am not talking about someone who is off to the side a respectful distance but so close it is almost like he is tending the flag. I would like to hear what stories people in the sand trap community can share on this topic. P.S. I also forgot to add that i like to walk the course. The partner in question always rides, and i feel that for him golf is just a chore that he needs to finish as quickly as possible.
