    I've been going to this simulator to work on some things while i wait for grass. they added this app functionality so it sends you your swing videos. i've recorded myself before but from behind, which i guess isn't ideal. this is a side view camera and it really illustrated what im doing wrong, particularly with my driver. my swing looked nothing like it felt. but it helped me immediately correct some of the easier parts. today i was consistently 275-290 with the driver and in the low 160s for ball speed. that's a massive improvement from even a month ago. im disgustingly addicted
  3. i tried telling him at one point that I thought what he considered his misanthropy or whatever was just that he might actually not be a good person. he doesn't treat other people well, and in response, they get tired of his act and discard him. and then he uses "well i dont like people anyway" as a cover for having no one and nothing in his life. he disagreed and called me gay but i was right

    I improved a lot last year (relatively) when I started focusing on hitting my 7-pw accurately at the range instead of just bombing my driver. now if im at the simulator? im taking that big dog out. but it was crazy how much more comfortable i was from 150 yards and in once i made myself focus on those clubs

    Yes! I changed nothing about my swing. He just put a ping head on longer firmer shaft (pause) and all my swings were in the range he wanted. It was unbelievable. I was looking at him like he was a wizard and he said brother, I've been doing this 45 years. Awesome, awesome dude.

    like most old horsefeathers boring white guys i picked up golf during the pandemic. i dicked around off and on over the years but the combination of there being nothing to horsefeathers do mixed with being able to get out of the house for 5 hours and escape my wife and kids proved to be too strong of a pull and i got fully addicted. Last year I played a bunch, got to go to Southern Hills, it was a lot of fun. But I'm playing with this hodge podge set of used irons. The caddy that day was like brother you're 6'4, you need to go get fitted for some irons. So earlier this month I went to a club fitter here in town who's been doing it for 40 years or whatever. amazing experience. I hit my 7 iron 5-6 times and he was like "did those swings feel good?" And im like honestly yeah, i hit it pretty flush every time, timing felt good. I'd be happy with that. So we start looking at the trackman and he's like club a little too open, attack angle too high, spin rate way too high, apex too soon, etc. He grabs a club head and sticks it on a longer shaft with a power spec and goes hit this. First horsefeathers shot goes 180 and all the trackman numbers were in the range he wanted. One swing with a club that fit my oversized beanpole body. Now I was aware that he's a salesman and part of his job is being stripper/car salesman ("i think she really likes me dude"/"I need the rust proofing babe.") But swinging those clubs was a much, much better experience. I couldn't believe the difference even if some of it was a placebo effect. Anyway I get my new irons tomorrow. Im stoked to still suck with my $1700 clubs.
  10. id like to get those wisdom numbers down to about 0, otherwise looks great
  11. my only concern is that this takes us out of the austin meadows sweepstakes
  12. Jed cooked boras. Tears in my eyes
  13. that one year of chelsea where he basically rode Kante into the dirt and won a UCL in a year when the team's top scorer had 7 goals (all penalties) because they played 5 at the back with three world class CBs bought him a lifetime of teams talking themselves into him
  14. dont overthink it. this problem only occurs when one guy gets mad at the liberal slant of this board and starts trying to turn it into twitter
  15. ok but those are always on his mind
  16. its probably counsell intuiting that ross is very bald and very dumb and going "i need to see this for myself before i write it off."
  17. you should have minded your own business
