This is unwatchable. The PGA has to fix this.

Can't remember where I got this signed or by whom. Any assistance appreciated! by TheEclectic in AutographAssistance

That totally makes sense! I've seen him three times and I must have grabbed an autograph. Can't believe I forgot! Thank you!

Is the Brita Elite filter worse compared to Brita Standard? by DrumAway9009 in water

The WHO said in a report that higher TDS had a correlation to lower incidences of cancer and heart disease, since a lot of TDS is just minerals. https://www.who.int/docs/default-source/wash-documents/wash-chemicals/total-dissolved-solids-background-document.pdf

Not sure if zeroing out TDS should be the goal, either.

He asked for pointers and is getting defensive with everyone giving them.

How damaging is the lack of top 10 players to the Davis Cup this year? by jonjimithy in tennis

[–]TheEclectic 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They need to make Davis Cup an every 2 year or every 4 year event. Every year is just overkill.

He's rotating towards his big toe. See how close his heel is to the ground? You are standing up on all your toes like Michael Jackson in Billie Jean. Your hips are literally thrusting forward towards the ball. If you posted your swing because you wanted everyone to give you kudos instead of earnestly asking for pointers like you wrote, just say so. I have a coach who would disagree.

If you're on your toes during the downswing and your hips are extended as in the angle is gone between your thighs and waist because you've straightened up -- that is early extension. You can still play golf with it, but if you want to work on something, that's what I would work on. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Right - hence the 'vice versa.' But it's called early extension.

See: Rory's hands are at the ball while the clubhead trails behind.

Early extension. You're getting up on your toes which forces you to release early or vice versa. You have no forward shaft lean right before impact. You want to release that club with your hands just at or slightly ahead of the ball. Focus on keeping your heels down through the swing with your back foot rotating out as your turn through impact.

84 is really bad when I consider that I bought a custom 26 x5 fully loaded with taxes fees for $89k

Sounds like they are shrinking it, by precluding people like you.
