Ouch, didn't see the third round but I heard both Rory and his playing partner both hit the same course Marshall on the same hole.

daslog posted:The solution? Try to hook the ball even more. Worked perfectly and immediately. According to Monte, this is because a snap hook is caused when your face is so open that you body reacts to save your shot. When I hit a hook it's because I'm slightly over the top (out to in swing path), good hip rotation and a flip/early release through impact. When I go for lessons the Pro is primarily working on my club path, this is the hardest part to fix but it sets the foundation for consistency. Using the swing monitor it shows my swing path being -1 or -2. This is down from -6 or higher when I started. You really need an expert to analyse your individual swing and apply the appropriate fix. For me it was a feeling if swinging out to the right through impact. All he then tells me is to try and keep my wrists quiet and have my trailing hand palm facing the target through impact. Doing this means I can't flip or over rotate the arms before hitting the ball. The body is responsible for squaring up the face of the club with good hip rotation.

Yeah I think you need to work on technical stuff at the range - get it ingrained. When you're on the course you should be visualizing the shot, making sure your aim is correct and only think of good tempo during the swing.

Weird, looks like it's for a blade. I'm seriously looking at getting an M3 driver 440cc head. Might get custom fit for the shaft as I've progressed a lot with my swing over the last 6 months. Nasty push-slice is rare, actually have a controlled draw most of the time. Enjoying the game more and my handicap has come back down again.

Suprfli6 posted:My Wednesday league was rained out for the fifth time in six weeks last night. I’ve still played on three of those days but my league is full of guys who are apparently terrified of water. It’s been a crazy August, by far the wettest I can remember. Looking forward to crisp sunny fall days when the ball actually rolls a bit in the fairway. Complete opposite here in Sydney. Dams on our course are the lowest I've seen them and they're huge capacity. Supposed to rain this weekend but I've probably jinxed it by typing this.

Suprfli6 posted:I watched most of Tiger’s tee shots today and several times he swung really hard, had a recoil on his follow through, etc. It seemed like every time he did that, he ended up shorter than Spieth’s tee shot. When he was swinging smoother he was consistently longer than Spieth. I know people have been saying this ever since he started playing again, but he really needs to stop trying to kill the ball. He looked a lot more consistent yesterday and didn’t seem like he was trying to force anything. Smooth tempo and good contact always trumps power.

4 of those 5 faults I had. It took over a year of semi regular lessons to correct them and I am a lot more consistent now and have a solid understanding of my swing. I almost gave up completely during this process because everything he was teaching me made no sense. I totally understand your frustration and feeling of hopelessness. Thing is - it's very difficult to change muscle memory and bad habits in a golf swing. You need to decide if you want to go through the tough process building a foundation from scratch or just be content in what you have. Essentially the total cost in dollars for all of my lessons would be equivalent to a new set of clubs. I know now that I made the smarter investment.

DJExile posted:This is an awesome story from over in the journalism thread. Golf Digest single-handedly overturned a murder conviction of an inmate who'd been in for 27 years, only finding out about him because of the golf course landscapes he drew in prison. Guy's never swung a club in his life. Oh man, 2011 is when they started looking into his conviction. 6 years to find him innocent. What a waste.

I do notice that pros and their caddies don't call fore as often as they should. Commentators are pointing it out lately, definitely a pet hate of the Euro Tour commentators.

Homestar Runner posted:I'm a 3 handicap golfer and finally got my first ever lesson after 16 years of being self-taught, and already picked up about 5mph of clubhead speed via my instructor improving my club path on the backswing, and footwork on the downswing That's awesome, what is lacking with your swing to make you get lessons?

Homestar Runner posted:Actually I'd been striking the ball well prior to the lesson, especially with my driver / 3 wood / hybrids, but there were a few things that I could see visually on video that I wanted to tighten up. Nice. Yeah I always struggled with early release/flip through impact. The Pro told me to have my right hand palm facing the target through impact and release after. I used to have an early release and that simple advice helps get me back on track if I'm not making good contact on the course. The other essential thought is to keep moving everything through impact. I imagine my hips as the control for the club face. If I stop moving through impact then the club face will be open and it will go right.

Nice to see some of the older guys win. Stayed up to see Danny Willett win the World Tour Championship. He looked a bit shaky in the middle of the round with Reed breathing down his neck but he had an amazing last 4 holes. Love that guy, was hard to see him struggle for so long. You could see how much it meant to him to get another big win.

I have Mizuno MP25 Irons which I love so this would be a nice match.
