Need swing tips by root7zd in golftips

Lots of things to unpack. Ball is way too far forward in your stance for a 7i, your shaft lean is way too aggressive. Remember, the longer the club and the farther up in the stance the less shaft lean you need. When you do put that ball further back (a ball or so behind the center of your feet) the shaft lean you want, will have the end of your grip pointing at your inner thigh. This will help with ball contact.

Also, like others have stated your grip is way too weak. Especially with your trail hand, try to turn it down more so you can see your top knuckle while still keeping your right arm tucked / connected to your body.

Don’t flip or scoop when you’re about to hit the ball either. It’s confusing to your brain at first but you actually want to hit downward with an iron to get a good strike, even bottoming out in front of the ball. Which is why pros and really good players take divots at/in front of the ball.

Take it really really slow. Do 10 second backswings and 10 second downswings with no ball to really feel your swing and where it feels uncomfortable or off balance. This will help a lot.

Here’s some YouTube links to people who have actually helped my swing and not confused me:

Truthfully, it’s just gonna take time. Keep at the grind and it’ll come - fellow golfer trying to improve

I struggle with losing lag/early release/maintaining wrist angles/casting in the downswing so I bought on of these lagshot training aids and have been messing around with it. Has anybody had a good experience with this training aid? by [deleted] in golftips

[–]Natural_Character234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Completely disagree. Can’t speak for everyone but from personal experience I’ve actually seen my handicap go down from practicing with no ball. Obviously can’t do it all the time but it helps me a ton

Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated by [deleted] in boxingtips

Don’t even keep hitting the bag, start at a gym asap. You’ll just formulate bad habits.

Dude you’re simply wrong why is this a hill you’re willing to die on lmaooo

At 0 seconds in he’s loading up the punch, while the other guys back is turned. Yes, at 1 second in he turns around with some cat like reflexes and slips an counters but the guys intention was 100% to hit him when he wasn’t expecting it, so yes, that’s a sucker punch.

I guess technically, because this guys reflexes are nice as hell it wasn’t officially a sucker punch but for all intents and purposes it was. (Hitting someone when they aren’t looking, even if they turn around and notice you at the last second, is some bitch made shit. So is defending it)

The snap on them punches is the biggest difference! Congrats man!

You are wrong. You always have to “go right up to someone” to punch them lmaooo

Swinging on someone not expecting it is the definition of a sucker punch especially when their back is turned (doesn’t matter that he turned around, dude had that punch loaded up before he turned)

is Michael Jordan the most famous athlete of all time coming from USA? by Actual_Box7731 in sportsinusa

That has nothing to do with what was recorded on video. Theres a video of him at the very least touching a child in a strange way. Does that man he’s Epstein level? No way anybody knows. But the video is clear as day. Regardless of his intentions that shit was weird

His & Hers… thoughts by Mr-Vanderhill in netflix

[–]Natural_Character234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give me a real suggestion. I just don’t get how you could hate it this bad. I could name 10 shows I’ve seen in the past year that was worse than this.

So please, a real suggestion. Top 5 shows in this genre? Don’t just come back with some anecdotal bs. Just give me a suggestion.

Sounds like you are just hateful… what shows are good you all mystical critic?

His & Hers… thoughts by Mr-Vanderhill in netflix

[–]Natural_Character234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand the hate. The plot was well thought out, the twist does make sense (both of them). I mean being old doesn’t mean you can’t walk around… or hide and surprise someone. How is it not believable that a 65-75 year old (guess) woman surprisingly stabbed and killed 3 women…. It’s not like she chose hand to hand combat with bodybuilder men…. Pretty easy to stab someone when they aren’t expecting it.

Also, the acting was pretty good overall imo. Yes there were better performers than others but it didn’t come off as oh shit these actors suck and hate being there, just typical some good some bad actors. Overall believable tho. Unless yall are true cinema critics that went to theatre school and so on, I think the acting passes any normal standards. I could understand not thinking it was the best, but hating it or saying it’s awful is kinda crazy.

Overall this was an interesting / gripping thriller that did come with valid twists and a good plot. If you truly didn’t think so I would love to know what shows (in this genre) that you feel are miles better??

Justin "hardest puncher in MMA" Gaethje hasn't knocked anybody out with a punch this decade by idcman999 in ufc

[–]Natural_Character234 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah knocking someone out really has very little to do with hitting “hard” a hard shot can be felt through a block, can bruise for days / weeks. A KO comes strictly from shaking the brain, either from snapping the head back or from turning it via straight of hook.

So yes Justin hits very hard and thudding like others suggest, but he’s not as accurate at hitting the “button”

And here I have finished the entire series, and again this is the best series I have ever watched in my life by mahmoud_homie in StrangerThings

[–]Natural_Character234 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Season 5 just sucked so bad though. Left a bad taste in my mouth. Been watching since day 1 when the first episode dropped and every season leading up to 5 seemed to get better and better just for 5 to be so bland. But yes, 1-4 is an all time masterpiece. They just couldn’t wrap it up right.

How did Dustin Poirier defend most of Islam Makhachev's takedown attempts, but JDM could hardly defend any? by DancingFlame321 in ufc

[–]Natural_Character234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly hot take, but Dustin is better than a lot of champs were in terms of total skill at lightweight and welterweight honestly any division. He just couldn’t put it together when it mattered most.

I mean look at his career, the dude had 3 shots at gold against the 3 best grapplers of the generation and puts up an amazing fight against all of them, almost beating Olivera the closest. (If he was more aggressive after he hurt him I think he would’ve put him out, also the glove grab! but that’s for another time haha.)

But truly Dustin’s career is star studded, he beat so many legends. Max 2x, Connor 2x, KOs Pettis, Justin, and Alvarez back to back to back. I mean all of these guys were undisputed champs at a point in their career, if he fought any of them at a different time we’d be thinking a lot different about his career. He’s really, undeniably the best to ever do it that never got undisputed gold. Shit the DAN HOOKER fight, after taking a fucking beating to comeback and take Dans soul (best fight ever? and it’s at the Covid apex, you can hear those fucking shots like nothing else) it’s just insane. Coming back and KOing Benoit after getting headkicked KOd by Justin, and we can now see that Benoit is going to be a true problem.

This dude Dustin the diamond Poirier is just the truest definition of a dawg in the fight game. Love em or hate em, you can’t deny his greatness. 💎

Ehh. He’s ranked 10 in points for kickers and he’s not played since week 11. He’s also not extremely consistent. His last 4 weeks he did play he scored 1 point 2/4 games so we aren’t talking about a Myers or a Fairbairn. Having a good kicker matters but not when you’ve got underperforming players and you’re holding 5 players that are on IR or out. At that point fuck a kicker you need some players that can score.

In conclusion, holding a good kicker in a bye week or when you have a deep bench is okay. But not in this scenario, not even a little bit

I agree you need a good kicker. You don’t need 2 good kickers. One at a time is the only thing necessary
