dont get me wrong im a taylormade fan, just look at my bag list. i just dont see how adjustable weights in putter can help
-
someone please tell me how adjustable weights in a putter can help or is this just some kind of gimmick to make people buy it?
-
just wanted to know how long this forum has been around? just noticed that colonial is the 250 member!! thats a pretty sweet milestone

about the Jack Nicklaus swing trainer. i looked at it at dick's sporting goods and with a $60 price tag i left it alone. instead i went to Home Depot and got some pvc pipe, fitting and pipe insulation for less than 15 bucks and made my own one lastnight. ill tell you it looks just like the real thing just not as "fancy" looking. i dont know if its the swing trainer that intimidates you to swing inside out but i only hit the bumper 1 out of 10 swings so i dont know if my swing is already inside out or outside in, I'll have to go to the range and use it there because i can only hit plastic balls in my backyard and they are not accurate.
-
that is exactly what i have been doing, pretending it is a baseball bat. i think the baseball grip is more comfortable for me because i played baseball for 16 years so im use to that kind of grip.

why do you need a december 1995 copy? you may want to check ebay
-
welcome and we hope you stick around, it is a great forum with tons of info but we can always use more as golf is an ever envolving sport
-
yeah i guess it is a fade, it is a very slow short moment left to right but still ends up right where i wanted it. i have no idea how to draw the ball, if you can help me out please do, im just so happy to be hitting it without the big slice, i hope i can keep it up.
-
well i went to the range again lastnight to work on my dreaded slice. i tried all kinds of things but i changed a few things and noticed my slice was not nearly as bad, almost perfectly striaght but still just a tad of slice. what i did and i dont know if these are correct swing techniques or not is bend my knees alot less, made my back straighter instead of bending over and most of all i went from a overlap grip to a baseball grip. i noticed my drives going a few yards further too but i still had a big slice 1 out of 4 shots. well i just wanted to know if these 3 swing changes are correct techniques?
-
i haven't been hit but my golf cart has been hit a few times, the people behind us failed to wait for us to clear the area before hitting.
-
unless one ball will last me a couple rounds forget it, they are saying the price is going to be about 7-8 dollars a ball!! the ProV1's are only about 5 a ball.
-
well i just thought i'd let you guys no, i have had no luck with the glove in the armpit tip, my slice is still there, im thinking about going to a teaching pro and getting his input, what do you think?
-
just what thrash13 said. have fun, you will be amazed how much better you will do if you are relaxed and having fun. don't beat yourself up, it will only make your next shot worse.
-
now that is a new concept i will definetly try, thanks again
-
i guess im going to have to try this shoulder thing, thanks guys, anymore info would be great. one other things is the inside-out trainer any good? (just in case i cant figure it out)
-
the slice has been my problem for so long and i have tried so many different things and its still there, some people say there is no need for a training aid but i just cant seem to figure it out. i will try this shoulder techique though the next time i go to the range, thanks
-
king cobra, welcome to the sandtrap and hope you enjoy the expanding education here, i sure have
-
hey guys i was just wondering what is the best training aid out there to cure a slice? I make good contact with the ball but i cant get rid of my slice.
-
welcome to the forum, glad to have you here!!

on the course i prefer corona light, miller light if im out with my buddies but if im in a corporate tournament or a business trip i stick with water (mostly fruit H20) in the clubhouse i prefer a crown & coke i dont drink much caffinated drinks anymore and if i do drink a soft drink its gotta be diet
-
i like the talyormade 580xd. large face allows for easy contact and boy do the balls sail off of these. The r7 is great too but for 500 bucks not worth the difference of the 580xd for around 250 bucks
-
dont forget about the taylormade HT's or OS's. since you are a high handicapper these clubs will get your ball up even on misshits. they are extremely easy to hit with great distance. i tried the ping g2 and dont get me wrong they are great clubs but the HT's are just as good with a lower price tag. i havent tried the launchers but i hear great things about them too. what you need to do is go to the store and try them out or even go to a demo show at your local range and see which set feels right for you.
-
don't forget www.pinemeadowgolf.com , i brought a set from here one time and they are pretty good clubs, they do all the custom fitting for you right down to what kind of shaft you want to what kind of grip you want, plus there prices are great
-
forget the above post, i just brought a new set of taylormade rac ht's this weekend and they are awesome. i tried the os2's and ht's and it really all came down to price so i got the ht's. i'm playing today so i'll give you guys a better review later on. O, and i also picked up a couple of taylor made rescue woods as well and they are so easy to hit its unreal.
