CBO

I think I've seen Jack Nicklaus do this. The 'trick' is you place a putter with an open back side in front of the ball, then scoop it to the outside (away from the hole) and around, and release the ball when the putter head is above your head. Would be an easy way to get out of a deep bunker, but definitely not allowed

Cheers Ben! I've been reading along for quite some time now but as a beginner never felt I could contribute much. Riding bikes has been my life for many years though :) Sounds like you're on the right track, I think you'll soon ride further and further as you get more used to being on the bike. Keep us updated on how you do on the bike and if you think riding it makes a difference for you out on the course? I can imagine a better overall fitness will be beneficial when walking a round so you don't get tired on the last few holes. Maybe some added strength in your legs can make for a more stable and powerful swing as well? Not sure how much actual power is involved in that or if it's more control and timing? Anyway, enjoy the bike and be safe out there! It's a great sport as well :) C

Hi Ben, looks like a fun bike to ride Sure can be addictive as I think you´ve already discovered! This is my first post here but I read elsewhere your game had improved after picking up the bike. Curious to hear if you´re still increasing your rides and if your game is progressing along with it. I used to ride a lot myself, now it´s just the casual stroll but I do notice that I´m usually playing better if I´ve ridden the bike earlier that day. I think it´s because it helps me relax and free my mind but who knows.
