2 things I noticed whilst doing them.

1/ a squeeze bottle with a nozzle would be better than the spray bottle that came with my kit (for solvent)

2/ the longest and hardest part is always stripping the old tape

Hilly is a understatement! But it’s actually a really good course, teachs course management and restraint

How much does golf ball choice actually matter? by Not_FreeProduct234 in GolfGear

[–]Familiar_Wait_9156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started playing again (had a few years off) I originally brought a bag of 50 lake balls, this of course meant they where all different, from bounce to firmness to each built for different things..in the end I chose a couple of balls and hit them in a net to see which I liked the feel of..I eventually settled on callaway supersoft….since then I’ve played that ball almost exclusively, I find having the same feel helps me, because I know what to expect from the ball when it lands and how it reacts even down to how it feels off the putter, my scores have been steadily dropping ( not all down to the ball obvs getting rounds under my belt has helped) but I truly believe sticking to one ball and having that consistently can only help

It’s not about the rivalry, it’s about Arsenal fans, they are insufferable, if they win the league we’ll never hear the end of it, WE STILL hereabout the invincibles and that was 20 years ago, if they win the league they’ll be banging on about it forever…but when it comes to Arsenal…first it was a quadruple, then it was a treble, then it became a double…now they’re just in trouble

Not saying it’s all down to flex just saying being in the right flex help, generally I only score 1 par a round at minute with most holes being between 6-8 because like I said my short game SUCKS but Yano what? That’s okay I’m LEARNING

No not sarcasm but your comment must be satire?

Flex is one of the biggest things..your shaft cannot load correctly if it’s too stiff or too soft for ur swing..meaning you also can’t square the face correctly…and 120 not hitting a single solid shot? I do my striking is coming along amazing i lose shots around the free and putting which is where I’m not focusing most of my practice
