You caught me at a moment when I'm super bored at work. Some things I've noticed, and I'm just regurgitating my own lessons:  Michael Breed and all my instructors want the back of the shaft (end of the grip) at address pointing to your belt buckle, yours is a little high. Your swing plane hard core on the inside, whats your normal miss? A pull or a slice/fade? I'm guess a pull because it looks like your swing is really inside-out. You come inside on your backswing and again on your downswing. I know how to fix an outside-in swing, but I don't know about the inside-out swing. I'd just try to keep that shaft on that same swing plane that the stagnant yellow line is on, your shaft at address, when viewed from behind, is where you want your swing plane to be. More knowledgeable goons can correct me if I'm wrong, like I said I'm very new myself and just repeating what I've learned so far.

Just got a brand new TaylorMade R11s 3-wood for $150 at Golf Galaxy, they're $100 off right now! Also got my Optishot set up almost properly, I just need to astroturf the whole room now. And I need to turn my heat up to 150° and blow it towards the golf course so I can loving play. And that WM tourney was super fun to watch.

CPFinnit posted:I've only been playing a few months, but I've run into a bit of a problem. You never know about the doctor, I had a terrible pain in my back, my left side, whatever muscle runs down next to your spine was killing me. I had to re-schedule my fitting because I couldn't put a proper swing on it. Went to the doctor and he gave me some steroids and I swear to god the next morning I felt 100% It was insane. I was kind of hoping for percocets or something, I mean if I had to not play golf I might as well feel good, but man those steroids were the best thing. But like the other guy said, you can and should work on putting and chipping, if you just want to wait it out.

DoctaFun posted:I think most people, especially those that are fairly new to the game, would be better off spending 90% of their time practicing chipping and putting, and 10% of their time practicing the rest of their game/playing a round. They'd save a lot of money too. Yea, I started off just driving balls and hitting irons, and hated putting because I was bad at it and I just wanted to send the ball, not that pussy child poo poo that is putting. Then I learned how to putt and chip, and I swear I shaved 20 strokes off my score (my scores were high at first). I think if you know how to hit the ball and get it moving and air born, then yea, focus on green to tee (not tee to green) to get better scores. But you at least have to know how to swing a club and hit the ball. When we play rounds my buddies go to the range for an hour and don't even look at the putting green. I do 30 minutes of driving and 30 minutes of putting/chipping. You really have to to see what the greens are like that day. But it's not as fun as killing a driver so not a lot of people do it.

DoctaFun posted:
I totally agree, and also with chipping and putting there really isn't one set rule of thumb. Not like with driver and irons where you can analyze your swing plane, weight transfer, head wobble, all that jazz. Short game is all about feel, and it's really hard to teach it— you kind of just have to do it. I mean I've read Dave Stockton's books and learned from them, but when I really started learning was when I tried the techniques out on the practice green and really started developing my own style based on what works and doesn't. So if you don't have an instructor and you're just trying the latest tip for your irons or driver, it's going to be harder to progress, where as with short game you don't exactly need an instructor, just the experience and the feel. We should propose a show to Golf Channel and get ourselves on it.

SpeedyCow posted:I hit the Nike Covert on Monday and I'm in love! Sadly I can't spend 500 bucks on one club, however I'm going to try last year's models. The adjustable head was just a gimmick to me at first but now I'm seeing the appeal. I hit the first generation adjustable R11 and hated it, but the newer models feels much more solid. Man, with Rory and Tiger hacking it up when that first came out I can't imagine the Covert generating too much positive buzz (though Tiger did just win two weeks ago). I had a Callaway Razr Fit, I liked it at first but grew to hate it (but probably because of my bad swing). Then I bought the R11s in November and I'm driving like a goddamn pro now. Sir Bedevere posted:A few days later than I expected them, but my new irons/wedges showed up yesterday.

I was going to do a 2013 'Whats in your bag?' but I just ordered two new Miura Wedges (55° C Grind, 60° Y Grind). I should be leaving for Florida again on thursday, so I'm having my fitter ship my clubs to me next day air so I can get use them on Saturday (paid 2 day air to get the heads from Japan, then he's going to expedite the building process for me!).

SpeedyCow posted:It was the tour version, and the custom shaft was another 100 I'd actually be interested in the Covert if I didn't have a love affair with my R11s. I love my Nike Method Mallet Putter more than any other putter (though I've yet to try the Miura putter). My Golf Galaxy has a demo R1 with no price, and all the other ones are $400. My buddy played with me for the first time and was really interested in my driver since he played with another guy who had it. So we went to the galaxy and he demo'd a few and loved it. I haven't had a chance to compare it to my R11s but I have a feeling they're not too different.

They're really good clubs, I'm not sure what stands out about them from other game-improvement clubs, except they don't look so bulky at address, which I love. I can't stand huge bulbous irons... So that's a huge plus for them. If I didn't have Miura's I'd be considering them. I think I'm going to buy the Women's flex version for my wife soon. DJExile posted:That rules, dude.

I can't tell you how awesome my club fitter is. I was hesitant because I didn't think there'd be any great fitters around Cincinnati and the website looks dated (http://www.conquestcustomgolf.com/), but turns out he's one of the top 100 according to Golf Digest. If anyone is in the area I'd highly recommend this guy. He's as addicted to golf as anybody, and just loves anything to do with it and gets excited to see guys like me willing to next day air golf clubs just to get my wedges for a few days in Florida... Nothing but good things to say about Bill. Well, he can talk a lot but that's because he's enthusiastic.

DoctaFun posted:Not that this matters, but if I see someone with a completely matching set of clubs(especially if the club model is <2 years old), I instantly think they are a "gotta have the latest and greatest" hacker. The majority of people who have clubs that match from Driver to Sand wedge are your typical guppy hacks, at least in my experience. My dad was so worried about buying the Rocketbladez because TM is advertising the gently caress out of them, but he doesn't regret it. I had to get Miura wedges to fill out my bag with all miura clubs (Ping wedges just look stupid sitting next to my beautiful Miura irons... Also these wedges are the best wedges I've ever loving hit). I'm kind of OCD so I like consistency. I do hit TaylorMade driver and 3-wood though, btu the rest of my bag is all Miura. Though you'll see me on the course with mixed & matched clothes, visors, Miura clubs, TM woods, and Bridgestone balls. It's not so much that I have to have the latest, but I've found the equipment that works for me. Though I do understand what you're saying, we play with a guy who just grabbed the Titleist AP2's because he couldn't pass up the price on them, but the guy went from being a really good golfer to hacking it up like crazy. It's the same in snowboarding (both golf & snowboarding can be very expensive), you'll see kids out there with the latest board, this years outerwear styles, all the latest & greatest, but they suck. Then I'm cruising with outerwear from like 6 years ago, a scratched up board and I look at those kids like wtf are you doing with a $400 jacket, $600 board, $300 boots when you can't even ride... But if you have the money then I guess why not? As long as it doesn't hinder your game anyway (unlike my AP2 friend).

Kameh posted:Take an extra club on headwind shots, swing smoothly, and finish low. You can also move the ball further in the back of your stance to keep the trajectory low. It'll take a lot of these shots to accurately predict what exactly will happen though. If I have to punch out I always take a 5 iron, ball back of stance, and try to shape the shot in a proper way (it's easier to hit draws and fades with a punch, because you can close or open your club head with less ill effect, and when I punch out I'm always behind a tree that I have to curve the ball around... so I've gotten decent at them.) e; Also played in hurricane force winds where I I almost always uses a five iron for every shot, also it wasn't real golf that day anyway so I didn't mind getting to know my 5 iron. I quickly learned how not to roll the ball past the green. With a 50-60 yard shot in 60+mph winds I don't want to flop it straight up and let the wind take it, so I try to keep it low and roll it up on the green.

Well I broke my driver friday, and lost my wedding ring. I swear I put that loving ring in my valuables pocket but apparently not... luckily my wife was less disappointed than I was. But I really liked that ring and now I have to try to get it made the same way again... As for the driver, I just tossed it behind me after a bad shot... didn't even slam it or throw it, just kind of unhinged my wrist sideways and tossed it behind me, and the head landed first and the shaft just vibrated and snapped. It was a TaylorMade R11s regular flex. But it's actually ok, because when I bought it my swing speed was slower. The guy even said when I get a quicker swing I'm going to have to get it re-shafted. But since I've been working out all winter and getting a better swing I've been having a harder time squaring the clubface at impact, so I've got a fitting tonight at 6 with my fitter and I'm going to go all out on the shaft and get the best one I can. I'm guessing my driver clubhead speed is over 105mph now. Also have an interview at the club I'm joining (Elks) tomorrow, so I'll be taking a quarter day at work and playing tomorrow before my interview, hopefully with a new shaft on my driver. edit; I have a question about chipping, almost all of my chips around the green check pretty well, but I'm trying to figure out how to make them roll out. As it stands I always have the ball way back in my stance, toes pointing in the direction of my target, shaft forward as to de-loft the club, and I keep my arms pretty rigid like a pendulum. I normally use my 60° wedge for almost all chip shots, and I know theres a way to make a flop wedge roll out, I just don't know how. I guess I could use a 9 or PW and get more roll, but I want to know a little more science while I'm here. RizieN fucked around with this message at 15:49 on Apr 8, 2013 |

I don't come up short unless I happen to chunk the chip, most people I play with think my short game is far beyond where it should be for how long I've been playing, and I'm normally within 6 feet of the cup when I execute the way I expect to. I read Dave Stockton's Unconscious Scoring book and that's when I adopted that set up (I may have misinterpreted his technique), but I was watching some pro's and their chips were a lot different, so I'm ready to start experimenting with some other type of chip shots. I'm going to bail on work today I think, my club fitting got moved to 2pm and the fitter is 5 minutes from my clubhouse, so I'm definitely going to go play around and the chipping green and try your technique. Thanks for the tips & video. I've been pivoting like he says to, but my arms are super rigid, so I think I'm going to try to stay fluid all around.

Yaphet posted:I wasn't trying to criticize you or anything. If you've got good touch around the greens, I think a chipping setup like that gets in the way of your own natural talent. Nothing is worse than chunking/skulling the ball around the greens. It kills your score and can single-handedly ruin a hole. You shouldn't be chunking chips, period. With a setup that promotes a shallow attack angle, something really catastrophic has to happen for you to skull/chunk the shot. I just got back from my fitting, I chipped around for about an hour and kind of merged your earlier tips into my previous method. The more wrist action does give me more roll, so I'll have to mess around a lot more to figure out just how hard to hit it, for shorter chip shots I think I am going to stick with my old method, because I'm super accurate and they bite. But I can see myself evolving a blend of the two over this season. I also ended up loving buying a totally new custom driver... Tom Wishon 919 head with 3° draw bias, 10.5° loft, ACCRA 60 gram stiff flex shaft. I also put a super stroke oversized non-tapered grip on my putter, already feels a million times better. Kind of looks weird though. I also put a lady's flex shaft on my TaylorMade so my wife can have a hand-me-down/upgraded driver. Scrapez posted:That really sucks. Have you ever tried playing with it on? Getting married next month and my ring was my dad's wedding ring so losing it would be horrible. I normally play with it on, and I do fine, but that day I wanted to see if I performed any different with it off. Stupid idea. My ring was slightly too big for my finger though, so I guess now I can get the same style made but one size smaller.

Goddamn you guys, my ball striking was amazing today. My distances are nuts now that it's warm out. I felt so good over every shot, almost holed like 5 chip shots, and I played from the tips all day. Rode 18 holes first, went to my membership interview, then walked another 9. I love playing with peers on my own level, it keeps me level headed, in the game, in a good mood, and I play better. Also it was windy as gently caress and when I didn't forget to factor in the wind 40-50 yards up in the air I was on point. I had so much fun today.

thebushcommander posted:What are you averaging per round now days? I know you just started golfing last year sometime right? Also where are you getting a membership where they required an interview, sounds fancy. Yea I started last June, and I've had about 3 or 4 rounds this year so far. My average is around 85-88, but I feel like that's not going to last for long if I keep striking the ball like I did yesterday (will get lower). Yesterday I shot a 90 from the tips (6631 yards) and it was windy as gently caress outside, I think they were 33mph winds. I played the wind just right on most holes though. What did effect my score was that the greens were aerated and sanded and nothing was really sticking, so most of my strokes were gained putting, which is the worst part of my game right now. I added them up and if I could've two putted every hole I'd have shot high 70's yesterday. I'm not going to blame the aeration because I know my putting is bad, but I'm putting a lot of time in practicing putts. My tee to green was awesome yesterday, and the added distance from the tips was more fun to me and didn't exactly present any new challenges as far as hitting greens in regulation, I just had to manage the course differently than I would from the whites. I'm playing again today with my mom, and I might hit from the whites to speed things up between teeing off on two different tee boxes, and see if I score any better. I feel like a 90 in 30mph winds, with aerated greens, from the tips is pretty drat good for me. I know some people might think that score doesn't warrant playing from the tips, but it really was my putting raising my score, my tee to green was great. I'm joining the local Elks club in my town, http://www.hamiltonelksgolfclub.com/ , it's about a 45 minute drive from my house but the 27 holes they have are so great. The interview is mostly to make sure you're not some redneck rear end in a top hat, one of the questions is "Do you want to forcefully overthrow the government?"... haha. Donald Ross and Michael Hurdzan designed the courses, though I could swear Pete Dye designed one of the nines. The members there are all nice and outgoing, not snobby at all, and they have a lot of different events throughout the year. Also I think I get to play any elks club in the country with my membership. I'm so stoked this year, I really feel like I'm going to make great improvements.

There's this guy, Doug Martin, he played on tour for 9 years and now he's the head coach at the University of Cincinnati, I think I'm going to talk to him about it and see what his schedule is. thebushcommander posted:Looks nice, pretty cheap membership too. Hopefully that 45 minute drive won't be a pain in the rear end though. If I lived 45 minutes from my course I'd probably play there once a week and still be angry about it. As it stands I live 15 minutes away right now and will be moving essentially across the street at the end of May. It's not such a bad drive, I played there a lot last year. I work about 15 minutes from the place, so I'll be going there a lot after work this summer and competing in their leagues and things on weekdays. The course is always in pristine condition too, the members all know how great it is and make a point to repair divots and ball marks.

Well I had another good day, played with my mom though so I kind of just practiced specialty shots and trying new things out on the course. I also kind of had to fill the role of coach to get my mom to hit the ball well, and towards the end of the first nine she started striking it proper and getting the loft and line she wanted. She just needs to swing faster because she gets no distance at all. Speaking of, I think what is making my irons so loving awesome now is that I focus on having a late release. If I uncock and whip my wrists through the ball at the right time I just crush it with some serious accuracy. I feel like I've had an epiphany in golf, something just clicked the other day and now my irons are amazing. I actually flew the green today on a long par 3 with a 6 iron, I used to never even be able to reach it with my 5i or 4 hybrid. Do any of you know any decent tips on reading greens? I feel like every putt that I thought was going to break today didn't, and the ones that did broke a shitload more than I thought they would. Maybe it was because the greens were aerated and sandy but I don't know... I've had days where my putter was on fire, but not a lot of them. I really need to get consistent with that club. On another note I got an email asking if I wanted one of the last 3 spots in the Ohio Valley Golf Association mini-tour, so I'll be playing in my first competitive golf round ever this sunday. I expect to get crushed, the course looks tough and I'm sure the field will be tough too. I think the mini tour is mostly a fun thing where golfers of all skill levels can play in, but I do believe there are side bets and 'money games' going on within the regulars. I'm just looking forward to my first competitive golf round. If I can learn to putt who knows... maybe I'll do well.

Yea I'm just selfish and want to watch some golf. I'm supposed to catch up on work today too... e; Jesus did you see that guy's putter just now on the website? Some Scotsman apparently, I forget his name. Putter head must be 1 inch tall by 8 inches long and 6 inches deep... thing looked outrageous.

Yea I really don't like them, I can't wait for the grass to open up. Was cleaning my clubs during the masters earlier and noticed a gnarly knick in the top edge of my 55° wedge... guess that's a down side of having soft steel irons. Anyone know of an easy way to get it flattened out so that the protruding part of the knick doesn't effect anything? edit, it's not so bad, but I can see some occasions where the ball might make contact with this tiny little.. bump I guess, and that would have a real effect.

Well I just played the worst round of golf I've played in 6 months... just so happened to be the first competitive round I've ever played... I couldn't get off the tee and I actually whiffed twice... I couldn't be more upset. I chipped in for birdie and made a few pars... but that doesn't matter when you score an 11 on a par 4 and so on. I'm going to chalk it up to being stiff, unprepared, and not having my own driver (broke it last week and my fitter couldn't build a new one in time). But goddamn is that embarrassing. And to top off such a bad score as soon as I was done I had to deal with a ton of work drama. We just fired one kid who's job I was responsible for saving (bad call on my part I guess), and we're firing three more people tomorrow. So I shoot over a hundred in my first tournament and then I have to fire people. Then I ended up seeing the masters playoff by accident when I wanted to watch the whole recording... and then I get such a warm (cold as gently caress) reception from my wife when I came home. What a loving weekend. This is the first time I can ever say that I can't wait to be at work tomorrow. Now I want to chill in the hot tu(very cheao & lovely hot tub, but its a warm tub of water so whatever) and let me bones soak but my battery is going to die. Jesus Christ I wish I could just fall asleep right now. gently caress today. e; Spelling— because today couldn't get any worse. e2; Oh, cool... just got more work drama emails. gently caress this week dudes... gently caress this week. I can't wait to get back out there and play some real loving golf. RizieN fucked around with this message at 04:22 on Apr 15, 2013 |

Eh, I'm already over it and looking forward to my next round. Going to hit the range and call that guy about a putting lesson and possibly coaching me. Yesterday I had like four 4 putts, four 3 putts, a couple 2 and 1 putts, and one chip in for birdie. I can't putt to save my life. Well, I can't read greens well anyway I think my stroke is fine.
