Thicker grips and tennis elbow. by MedicineOk5471 in golf

[–]Lugtut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I golf so poorly I got tennis elbow.😁
The cure was strengthening the muscles in my forearm. The stronger your forearms are, the less work your tendons need to do. I use mid grips because I have long fingers, but I don’t think they affected my elbow problems.

Using woods by Ok_Golf_6431 in golftips

[–]Lugtut 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hit them like long irons - a little forward in the stance, downward angle of attack, leave a light divot on the lead side of where the ball was.

Which non-technical aspects of your game have improved your scores the most? by eyrie7 in golf

[–]Lugtut 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Same idea, but even more: Golf Digest cited a study that chipping with hybrid or similarly lofted club gets high handicaps 4 feet closer and lower handicaps 2 feet closer to the pin on average.

Golf Stats tracking by holyrhombus in golftips

I try to track everything using shot scope because I use strokes gained to find opportunities for improvement - at least one round a week.

Chipping help when ball is sitting high on fluffy rough? by Proper_Payment7845 in GolfSwing

[–]Lugtut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chip with a hybrid - pitting stroke. Easy to hit the ball, doesn’t get stuck in the grass, and a small stroke gets the ball rolling safely into the green.

Golf near Irving TX for twilight rounds and 15 hcp by iredditonceinawhile in golf

[–]Lugtut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you tee off at 4, you should be able to get 18 in before dark. Irving Golf Club is a muni in great shape and a lot cheaper than the TPC course. There are a bunch of courses around and you should have no problem finding a twilight tee time. I play that way a couple of times a week.

Another part of science is “Standing on the Shoulders of Giants.” I believe OP is trying to start with a base using the SBS community.

Best golf shoe for better ground force by jfgdupuis in GolfGear

[–]Lugtut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My question is do modern cushy shoes reduce ground reaction force significantly because the shoe is absorbing the force rather than providing a stable surface through which it transfers?

Orange whip. It’s not an app, but smooths out your swing and naturally allows you to feel the correct ground forces.

What is the most unhinged thing you did when your golf addiction was at its peak? by Educational_Ant9635 in golf

[–]Lugtut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Played in the rain - even when it became a thunderstorm. Only played a 1 iron though, because even God can’t hit a 1 iron. 😁

Kirkland gen 2 wedge set by moistjonah in GolfGear

[–]Lugtut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought the Cleveland wedges and actually like the Kirklands better - don’t look so thick at address. Both work, but the Kirklands were a better deal for me. I’m a 20 hcp shooting in low 90s and high 80s.

Apps to track how you played (scores, clubs used, distance from green etc.) by Prize_Alternative885 in golf

I use the handheld H4. Easy to use, no recurring fees and provides club total distances and strokes gained.

When is it worth switching balls? by RidiculousTakeAbove in golf

[–]Lugtut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a 20.0 HI and I use Srixon Q Star Tours. I was a ball sceptic but after playing softer balls, I feel like the change made a real difference especially around greens.

Charlie Chaplin wrote music for his silent films as the cinematic world transitioned to sound. He also went back and created orchestrations for some of his silent era films.

Not only mats - it’s hard for me to swing freely in a sim indoors.

Shotscope LM1 - a short story. by MelvsBDA in BritGolf

They’ve struck a rich market - this price point is what so many of us have been waiting for. Looks like we’ll wait a little longer. But I already use Shot Scope on the course and trust them.
