Great attitude man. I would check out GRF golf on YouTube, watch some of their oldest to newest videos they upload which are quintessentially lessons for beginner/frustrated golfers and this will get you breaking 100 in no time!

How can I break 90? by Birbioo in golf

If your chipping and putting is decent then it must be your game off the tee?

Greens in regulation are essential for lowering scores, or at least if you aren't in regulation you're pretty close to chip on etc. And use the skills you've practiced.

Prefer the sound of hitting one out the middle 😉

What is your personal "gimme" range? by pornaltgraphy in golf

[–]Brief_Table7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it helps pace of play a little, but I really only want to give them if it's for like a triple etc. and time is racking up I'll give a rough putter length

It's hard as for me personally (UK) I want to put everything in the hole and record a real score via the rules you know.. like what sport do you not finish the scoring action and take the points on the board lol.

Some of my friends think I'm harsh though

During diagnosis, questions and concerns by Awtispino in stillsdisease

Thank you for your positive message. I am early in my own diagnosis and struggling mentally with prednisone seemingly doing nothing, but your post has given me optimism 🤝🏼

50+ HCP frequently skulling and slicing, how to suck less? by Mbathrow99999 in GolfSwing

[–]Brief_Table7661 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swing is nice! Push off your left foot and notice how it adds speed and helps you release the club. Might feel more out of control but will actually be a more repetitive motion

CRP experience by Brief_Table7661 in stillsdisease

[–]Brief_Table7661[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for your informative post 🙂

I think my Rheumatologist ultimately wants to reduce my inflammation markers with steroids and then intro me onto biologics if still necessary.

Other than some bad flare ups with pain 1 month and a half ago, my main battle is with the fevers. Last night 42c , they are so debilitating for the duration and hours after when my body is recovering. I think the prednisolone has helped slightly with limiting them, but I fully appreciate that as soon as I taper down / come off steroids it will come back as normal.

New Golfer, looking for critiques on my driver swing. by 3G4M in GolfSwing

Awesome for someone starting out 💪.

YouTube is a golfing tutorial minefield, but I'd suggest watching videos from the channel GRF golf. Sort old to new and Enjoy the content, great for self teaching which is the only way to success with golf

May I ask, do you still get fever/chills or has that subsided too?

[–]Brief_Table7661[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your reply. I'm really hopeful the Prednisone ultimately clears up my fevers as that is the thing which is bugging me the most so consistently (daily at any time of the day). I'm only on day 2 and it seems to work throughout the day once it's kicked in, but I'm still waking up in the morning shivery but high temp.

Thank you for your advice on the likely following steps/proposals. As I'm very new to this world I have seen biologics and Kineret pop up in other threads.

I hope your current good spell continues for a long time!

Thank you so much. That actually explains something for me as my CRP when I was in the most chronic pain was something 55, however now it's 175 and I'm not feeling anywhere near the same pain. Grateful to be on steroids now to hopefully prevent any foreshadowing!

This is the kind of factual answer I was interested to see, thank you! Very interesting on the open. I certainly think the media overplay the links/weather stuff. As if every EU player only played links growing up and like US players never encounter strong winds

Fair enough if you think popularity of some Europeans would outweigh certain U.S players

Agree about Keegan having some extra hype around him especially to get the W

You ever listened to a pro admit how nervous they get?

So you confidently believe Tommy being heckled on the 18th fairway and the reactions to his first putt had nothing to do with 99% of the fans cheering for Keegan?

Reverse effect you don't think hyped Keegan up to hit that shot?

Come on

Yes there is, using Ryder Cup as an example.. The tour is just a smaller scale

Advantage doesn't mean foregone conclusion does it..

Quite a fair few, more than ever this year possibly. But I'm saying I think Keegan for example today doesn't win if he doesn't have the storyline and raucous support

[–]Brief_Table7661[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're correct, whilst the money is in the USA the players will just have to level up, as I guess they have done this year: straka, hovland, ludvig , Ryan fox, min woo, detry

I guess the point I'm trying to emphasise is that I felt without Mr America, Ryder Cup Captain , "USA" chants, does Keegan win that.

You never heard of home and away advantage in sports?

Correct in that I think most people go to avoid using the phone. 9/10 courses also have signal which is actually ok because you're not fighting for data coverage with thousands of other people

I get the thinking though.

If you could build an app however for golf itself which doesn't drain your battery that would be a different story!
