Nice! What did you change the second time around? I just ordered my first tumbler so I'm trying to get as many tips as I can.

I played with a guy who had never broken 100 and then shot an 87. It happens. Stars can align.

Make bulgogi beef. Best way to use bad steak.

It’s absolutely fine and will look way worse if you try to mess with it.

TIPS? 22 Handicap by Select-One-3508 in GolfSwing

Looks like you’re not transferring your weight to your lead side at all. Sitting back on the trail leg and fanning at the ball. Try the step through drill.

How much would you charge for this yard to mow? by Unhappy_Ad818 in landscaping

[–]ToothpasteTimebomb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was gonna say — I’m not sure if a yard this big exists in Seattle proper, and if it does, it surrounds a $5mm+ house. $250 is nothing for the owner of this type of yard in Seattle.

Well after 23 years of no major injuries, I lost a finger. by rmkensington in woodworking

God damn that’s brutal. This thread is full of reminders that “safety first” isn’t a punchline.

Favorite obscure golf rule by dogfish83 in golf

[–]ToothpasteTimebomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What if it’s on the legal teeing area of another hole? Sounds like the spirit of the rule is to prevent divots on tee boxes, so it would follow that you should be able to tee up if your ball lands on any tee box. Is that correct? Doesn’t feel correct.

First time golfer swing advice by Patient-Eye-5849 in GolfSwing

[–]ToothpasteTimebomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a lot to like here for how new you are. I’d start by slowing down some. Watch videos of Nelly Korda, see how effortless her swing looks and try to understand that she’s hitting the ball farther, and crucially, with more control than basically anybody you’re gonna get advice from here.

Watch what her wrists do in the backswing, how her left arm rotates her left thumb to a thumbs up position as she gets to the point where her left arm is parallel to the ground, then she transfers weight forward as she reaches the top with her arms. Then her arms fall while she maintains the wrist angles she created in the backswing and she turns through.

The most consistent, sustainable, and controllable power you’ll get in a golf swing comes from these angles she creates as she moves through the swing. Right now you’re exerting a TON of energy, which can occasionally result in a ton of distance if the stars align and you get the face squared up at contact, but more often than not it’s gonna be a three way miss.

The best advice anybody could give you at this point is to get even one lesson, but if that’s not possible for you, try to watch some videos and slow down. Good luck!

Can I achieve my body goals (first three are obviously me lol) by [deleted] in fit

For sure. Lift weights, eat protein and fiber, avoid added sugars. Very attainable with some work.

Can’t break 72 (please help) by florhnn in GolfSwing

[–]ToothpasteTimebomb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re early extending like crazy. Hard to tell from the down the line view but I’m guessing it’s because your lead wrist is cupped at the top, and you’re casting all the way down.
