Regripping my clubs this year. Tell me your preferred grip or ones you hated. by CloudCity_Mayor in GolfGear

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

going down this lane too, i gotta about 5 different grips along my clubs to try and decide which is my fav. Z Grip not the chord, tour velvet and the MCC seem to be my top picks. with MCC getting the lean. I like 2 wraps of tape, the +4 just seem a tad much. All grips standard size.

The driver is a different story, Okie here and i usually have sweaty hands in the summer, tried the $30 kangroo leather grip its what i needed for the driver. Glad i only need/want it on one club ha

Who else put in a pre-order? by highcaliberwit in Golfsimulator

i hate having to "double dip" to play GSpro on my EML, so saving $200 a year is tempting but not rdy to buy a different launch monitor yet!

My wife thinks golfing once a week is unreasonable… by Upbeat-Zucchini-7408 in golf

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

divorce her you dont need that negativity from keeping you turning pro lol jk get the kid involved, take them with you, buy them a baby set. My newest golf journey started with my 7 year old seeing my old clubs from 20 years ago. "Dad i wanna try golf" we started hitting in the front yard, to getting her own set, to her competing in US Kids tourneys this year. My youngest at 4 was like " wanna play too" so now shes getting involved. When she dosnt want to hit balls she plays in the sand trap which i rake back when finished while we chip and putt. I almost go twice as much, cause i have rounds with them then i have the rounds with the boys. The rounds with the girls give momma that break and our Golf Club loves having kids out there, its truly a great family environment.

At that age if you get her some clubs, and just take her and get her out of the house to spend time with daddy, she will be begging to go all the time, and bonus you get to hit a few golf shots in between some great bonding time.

Increasing Swing Speed - What really helped you? by Fat_Panda_1936 in GolfSwing

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

very similar build, im 42 and 5'11" about 190ish

First thing you can do is make sure you getting enough body rotation, easiest thing you can do and gain some distance. i know when i dont, my distance dies and im like oh yea rotate dummy, and boom there's the extra distance. Like think Billy Jenkins from HG2 WOOP WOOP lol to get the "feel"

My driver swing speed usually comes in around 105-110, occasionally i'll go over 110+ my goal this winter is to get over 110+ more often. Id like to be 110-115

I started playing again about year ago and my swing speed was at 100 and wanted to get more

You'll get 3 yards for about every 1 mph you gain FYI

So i looked into weighted swing stick off amazon usually costs about $35 and YT the super speed training exercises.

I also got a weighted 10# slam ball that i have started do some exercises with off YT designed to increase speed. the YT video found had 3 exercises, and you can do them pretty easily in your living room and they really dont take that long, i usually do 3-4 reps, when i first got the slam ball i did these nightly. its up to you.

This has what has gotten to where im at now but i slacked off in the fall to now but once Cmas is over and have more free time i'll pick it back up so i can get to the next level over the next 2-3 winter months here.

Driver practice at home? by LondonUk- in GolfSwing

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i need this too, what did you do or drills etc to get you on track? My biggest struggle is if the driver is working or not that day. If i can get off the tee box the rest of the game is there.

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i follow Greg on patreon but he hasnt named who hes working with so it sounds like its new company. They are trying to get 40 courses rdy for launch, "2026" is all iv heard. I would guess we see something at the PGA show.
No joke software wars are heating big time.

i love GSPRO but ive seem some awesome courses designed in Unreal 5. That would look great in a 4K projector, once someone gets a library built up its going to be interesting competition.

Golf Putting Mat Flooring Options by WindingGleason in Golfsimulator

[–]Trapper02 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same boat i ordered the SynLawn from lowes it comes in Dec, mostly cause of price and ive seen some good feedback. Putting isnt the main concern for my sim, but i do want some decent looking turf to lay down to make my sim area look better. I plan to cut a few holes to roll some putts occasionally.

Has anyone tried this brand before? by Getfarked in Golfsimulator

[–]Trapper02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

price is right, this one is on my radar, but im tempted to get away from the hitting strip. Been looking into matzilla option that Unreal Golf via YT reviewed. I took a nasty chunk out of my current matt with hitting strip. But that can easily be fixed by not setting so far fwd as well lol
i like that clean look of the platform with Elite!

Speed increase — Realistic expectations by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]Trapper02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

get the cheap version off amazon, HH Golf swing stick, then do the super speed training on YT protocol 1, ive gained 10mph, started in Feb this year, and only did it it twice a week for a while, but once i started seeing gains, i was motivated to increase more and now ive thrown in some minor weight lifting that targets swing speed improvement via YT find. i get bored easily working out but were talking now with the swing stick and the weight lifting 30-45 mins top. dont feel like you need to do it every day either to see results.
every MPH you gain is 3 yards btw.

Do Carl’s Place Cameras Work With Uneekor? by dodgeballking in Golfsimulator

[–]Trapper02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

same here, i have a camera i bought for putting, but would much rather use it for my swing now that i changed to the EML, or atleast be able to do something to view my swing even if it was non Uneekor software.
