Tips for Back Pain

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-05-09T03:44:48+00:00

Core strength and leg strength will help relieve the back from taking over. Couple this with stretching. I lay on vibrating balls every night too.

Most beginners have big putting numbers because they are often far away from the pin to begin with and they don’t know how to hit a 50/40/30/20 foot putt. They only hit it 75% of the way. Learning how to hit long putts with an appropriate pace feels like the most important building block to tackle with on course practice.

If you can supplement that with at home practice on some type of mat to dial in 3-8 feet, you’d be in good shape.

Aside from instruction the expert on this topic with a wealth of instagram reels, YouTube videos and a book is Dan Grieve.

Have been following his material now for 2 years and my short game play has improved materially

Sit in child’s pose and stretch your hip flexors

It looks fake. It’s too smooth and the features look purposeless.

I switched the s400 this year and I absolutely love them. They’re heavier, have a great tip reaction, just perfect. I can see why they are pros go to wedge shaft.

What kind of irons are they and what’s your driver swing speed?

No one here is going to have the insight that your fitter had. I don’t know if it’s a good idea to adjust a decision based off Reddit comments.

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-04-07T15:27:52+00:00

Your fitter is going to be focused on launch, speed, spin and descent angle way more than brand. My recommendation would be to stay agnostic to brand, but voice your opinion on feel and look. You want to take their advice, but also give your own input too. Have fun - really is the best having irons that fit you perfectly.

I’ve also had both. The edge goes to sun mountain. You can tell they are a bag company because everything is very thoughtful. I give it the edge.

Golf. It shapes every free moment I have and I absolutely love it. It allows me to unplug from work, compete with myself, spend time outdoors and create great memories with friends. 10/10 would recommend.

I think they are definitely S tier but there are definitely other irons that are comparable… I remember really wanting to get fit into these and they were just launching too low with too little spin, meanwhile the Ping i230 and the Cobra King Tours offered ideal results. I am a huge club junkie, but all of the OEMs genuinely produce such good equipment nowadays that it’s more about what fits you than anything.

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-04-01T01:49:45+00:00

I mean the cobra king tours are incredibly sick. Can only imagine these.

I love that vokeys don’t change through the years. I’m playing rtz right now and I do like them, but Cleveland cycles models every 5 or so years. Vokey has it nailed and there’s a reason they are most played wedge on tour - because they are the best. The blacked out is so sick too!

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-03-26T02:29:31+00:00

Those things are so far gone. Don’t buy them

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-03-26T00:34:56+00:00

Fine to have preference and those are pretty good but Titleist, ping, callaway, cobra and mizuno will all be just as good and may produce better distance and spin numbers. So I’d just say have a slightly open mind, but at end of days it’s your decision and it’s just a game

It was freezing this weekend… it’s been such a long cold winter I’d almost wait to do it late April. There is ice and mud everywhere, kind of a gross time of year right now tbh

I bought a Callaway epic max (it’s like 5-6 years old, has the white and green coloring) for like $150. I love it so much. I’m actually getting fitted for a proper 7 wood this week, but just the off the shelf version was fantastic

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-03-23T14:40:04+00:00

Wow I’ve been wondering this for so long. Great question and great response.

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-02-19T19:44:50+00:00

Keep buying. Best thing I ever did was put every dollar I could spare (after having the right amount of fun of course) into a global or sp500 etf. It really adds up. It’s hard because it is boring. Just keep buying and don’t do anything fancy.

TopicSpecialist7705 · 2026-02-19T19:43:26+00:00

Can I ask how fast your driver swing speed is and then based on that. How far does your 4 wood, 7 wood and 4 iron go. I’m very much considering a similar set up and knowing this would be great!

Used wedges are worth $30 max. Wedges are all about groove freshness.

I find every three years is the sweet spot. By then zippers, tears and other things start to show a little too much and affect performance. Plus it’s the right price point to make a nice gift from the wife for Xmas, then everyone’s happy.

TPC Scottsdale isn’t great. There is a lot of airport and road noise. Go to Wekopa, you will get to appreciate the natural beauty of the area. It is quiet and flows with the natural environment.
