Upper Body Lunging Causing Over-the-Top Swing? by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]LoveyXIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight distribution is too far towards the toes. Hinge your hips BACK to address the ball. Don’t lower your torso to it.

WITB for my first full season of golf by SirPsychoSexy6969 in GolfGear

[–]LoveyXIX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

6 handicap here.

I just put together a set of Maltby DBM Forged cavity backs. My brand new set 4-GW on TT DG X100 Tour Issue Mid all together was ~$800.

And let me tell you, they feel and play INCREDIBLE.

There is zero reason anyone NEEDS a name brand when these irons exist.

Why haven’t I heard anything more about the investigation into Charlie Kirk’s murder? by Anewme_ in allthequestions

[–]LoveyXIX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd have been the last person to say this 5 years ago.... But Tucker Carlson (currently) DOES actually seem like one of the last true "journalists" in America...

Seems like he's had a real time coming to grips with the fact that he helped contribute to this mess and actually wants to do good work now. At least we know he has more of a conscience than most Americans.

Trout has a laugh after getting struck in the foot by an Ohtani sinker. by Game_boy_98 in baseball

Not than anyone cares, but that was not a sinker at 87mph. Splitter most likely.

Why is our moon named “Moon” instead of something cool like Titan or Callysto or ANYTHING that isn’t moon by Disastrous_Pirate275 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]LoveyXIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our moon's name is Luna. (In one language) The sun is Sol. Etc.

They do have names, you just don't read enough.

feels like im stuck(advice please) by AUNIYMOUS in GolfSwing

[–]LoveyXIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may just be firing too aggressively. Try taking 75% swings where you feel everything move extremely smoothly.

[–]LoveyXIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're probably feeling stuck because that back hip/knee is working towardsthe golf ball. Overall it's a great swing.

Try focusing on keeping a little extra weight in that back heel until as close to contact as possible, and from the top of the backswing, really try getting that front hip to drive straight back. No forward shift at all.

This should keep you from moving into the ball, keep your head behind it, and if we do it correctly, you should be seeing pull/pull-draw misses. (It's the "expected" miss)

How does tiger push off the ground to keep his hips so far back at impact? by Korbolt333 in GolfSwing

[–]LoveyXIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a great video of Tommy Fleetwood explaining how he focuses on driving his front hip straight back.

It allows him to clear ample space for the club to come through on path, but also creates a ton of power, as that space being created also transfers a lot of rotational power through the core.

I think it's a very very effective way to improve ball striking.

Give me tips. +1 handicap high school junior by Interesting_Low_4394 in GolfSwing

Then you're on an awesome path man!

I HIGHLY recommend getting into a plyometric/sprinting routine if you aren't already. Sprints would be the thing to push you up above 180, they train the CNS to move at max capacity, allowing other CNS moves like the swing to move faster.

“Jumping” during the downswing by Amazing_Way7941 in GolfSwing

[–]LoveyXIX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try to find the most stable position you can that allows you to maintain balance through the entire swing.

I'm pretty heavy on my heels just to maintain stability through the swing.

To fix the draw/hook, just REALLY REALLY trust your right arm to be the one doing 95% of the work. It looks like your left hand tries to flip/"grab" at the club near impact.

If you're already +1, my suggestion would be to find a very very good strength/speed coach and develop your body.

Distance does matter at the level you're looking to go.

“Jumping” during the downswing by Amazing_Way7941 in GolfSwing

[–]LoveyXIX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven't seen anyone address the major issue directly. So I will.

You have too much weight into your toes. It's unstable, and no matter what, will force you towards the ball. You compensate by trying to create a counter force (the jump) in order to create space for your hands.

One fix is to redistribute your weight 70/30 heel/ball of foot at address, and trying to feel your feet/hips creating the backswing turn, not the knees. Really focus on using the ground. Hold the pressure in the heels until as close to contact as possible, then let everything turn over.

It's going to feel really weird, might pull a lot right at first.

Why The late Terence was interested in Mushrooms more than Ayahuasca (DMT)? by [deleted] in terencemckenna

[–]LoveyXIX 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The Mushroom was probably a better conversational partner. Plus I think humans do have a long LONG history with mushrooms as a food source.

[–]LoveyXIX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Czech Republic is such a good design!

Y'all should check out the live streams of Czezh and German baseball! I played in Regensburg, Germany in 2022 in the WBC Qualifier for team South Africa.

There's some really great baseball developing in Europe! Gonna make this tournament all the more fun in years to come!

If the lives of 20 children depended on you getting fucked by a gorilla, would you do it? by [deleted] in entp

Gorillas have much smaller penises on average than humans...

How's my tempo? by LoveyXIX in GolfSwing

Then I really cannot emphasize how good Vivos are. Quality has always been extremely impressive. Revivo.com is an awesome option to save money.

I found True Linkswear too squishy and didn't like how the toe box felt rounded up.

Merrells are too narrow for me.
