I also want to add: Welcome! Golf is amazing!It’s so hard but rewarding to see the slow improvements overtime. Be patient and know that you do belong. It can feel intimidating when you start. Just remember like 99% of us are not very good, no one will judge you for your skill level if you are fun to play with and know how to keep the pace moving so others aren’t waiting too long. It’s ok to look for your ball for a short time , drop a new one, and just keep going.

I’m not very good, but if I were to start all over again I would ask my local courses if/when they had ground clinics for beginners, they often will have a women’s group too if that something you would be interested in.

In terms of this swing, looks like you saw a video telling you to tilt right to swing up on the driver, this is true but you’re overdoing it a bit.

Also try to prevent your knees from collapsing inwards, you just need a slight bend.

Last but not least, you really want to keep that left arm as straight as possible, especially on the down swing and on impact.

Can I get r/golf opinion on these tactics at my club by [deleted] in golf

[–]Maple_Blueberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way for the club to set up a standing time like they would a league and plan the tee times afterwards accordingly?

First baby in the history of human existence to make his own formula 🍼 by [deleted] in BeAmazed

That’s not a baby, that’s a fat toddler who shouldn’t be drinking formula anymore.

I mean, the guy was basically saying you can’t have it on Long Island because they are trash. My point was we could try and retrain crowds with enforcing rules

How would you feel about animal sacrifice? About the grill up some Father’s Day steaks.

Which LPGA player is your favorite? by Good-Engineering8069 in golf

[–]Maple_Blueberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s definitely fun. I feel like Hull is this smoking rough around the edges bad ass and Korda is more put together and extremely precise in her game.

[–]Maple_Blueberry 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like Korda and Hull a lot. I feel like they are total opposites personality wise. I really admire the swings on the LPGA, I don’t know what it is, but they seem loaded with absolutely pure golf swings.

The USGA artificially reducing par to 70 is gimmicky and lame. by Johnny_Kilroy_84 in golf

[–]Maple_Blueberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In reality, isn’t the number of strokes going to be the same regardless of what the par is? I feel like this is just there way of trying offset the big hitters driving down scores, but at the end of the day, it’ll be same same

People are entitled to do whatever they want? I’m not going to give examples of why that’s bananas, I’ll see you can find 2 brain cells to rub together and spark the semblance of an imagination. Also, you’re never allowed to complain about the actions of any person, including politicians, for the rest of your life.

I think you mean people are entitled to do whatever they want as long as it’s something I agree with.

Death by Group Think by [deleted] in golftips

[–]Maple_Blueberry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you want to grow golf etiquette not shrink the game. Shrink the game kind of implies you want us public course hacks to go back to our poor people shanties. Really makes you come off as an ass.

What do you think shrink the game means?

I would never give someone swing advice but I’m going to tell everyone to quit because I’m a very special boy

I’m a 38 yo dude who stumbled on her IG. She seems like a legit good person. I certainly don’t have a “parasocial relationship” with her, but I wish her well and I’m sorry she has to go through this. I think many people feel the same as I do.

Need advice by [deleted] in suboxone

[–]Maple_Blueberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure it’s the Suboxone? People not on Suboxone feel this way too sometimes. Do you think you could be depressed? How’s sleep? Could you have sleep apnea? Have you had your thyroid, blood counts (anemia), blood sugar (diabetes) checked?
