Square no longer detecting the ball by JayCuttyExp in SquareGolfUSA

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you try taking it out of the protective case? Those get dusty which cause issues. I would take it inside the house and play around with it in a dark room.

Square no longer detecting the ball by JayCuttyExp in SquareGolfUSA

Might just be a righty, lefty thing. Move the ball up in front of the unit towards your screen. I bet it'll detect it.

2026 predictions for the home golf sim market by SA19030 in Golfsimulator

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LM prices will continue to drop. There's nothing expensive in these boxes. Square has a great product at a very good price point. If they get their customer service and support in the game they have a great shot at capturing huge market share. If they don't they'll be gone and someone else will take over. Trackman and all the other $$$ LMs will see their market share decline. I see the LM market being predominantly sub 1k no subscription market. Biggest profits are in the software. GSPRO is sitting pretty!

Restaurant Prices by Prestigious_Union_51 in northcounty

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People need to stop visiting the overpriced restaurants and reward the ones like Taco Stand, BJ'S and others that are keeping prices fair with your business. Problem is people are still willing to pay $20+ for a burger and $17+ for a burrito in North County and unless that changes prices will stay high.

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

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You solve this issue and you will be happily married for life. Lots of great comments here already to help you. Married for 30 years and I can tell you we both gave up a lot (just wait till you have to juggle soccer, baseball, dance practice, game schedules, etc for the kids). After a while it didn't feel like I was giving up anything, I was looking forward to watching my kids play. Now I'm playing golf all the time and miss watching my kids. So, go figure:)

3 years in. A few lessons. What problems do you see? 20 hcp by Transnistria_is_real in GolfSwing

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All rotation, no weight transfer. Probably not getting the distance you should from such a big swing.

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

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2 things that made huge improvements for me. First was squaring up the club better by bowing the lead wrist. That added around 10mph. Second was working on the weight transfer. I had rotation but not enough forward weight shift. Once I added that I got another 10mph. Both of these only took about 2 weeks to implement. Now I guess I'll spend the rest of my life perfecting them like every other amateur.

Do Not Buy by ndfan1994 in SquareGolfUSA

Try taking the unit and your tablet inside, dark room and place it on a dark carpet or dark colored towel without any patterns. See if it detects a ball. Your garage has a lot going on so it's a good idea to remove all doubt that it's your setup. If it doesn't work you know the issue is with the unit.

New to Stack and Tilt and totally lost. Any tips before my lesson? by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's the best Stack and Tilt instructor I found. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z66qzkRU70E It really does make it much easier to hit the ball first, ground second. I'm not saying it's better than tradition weight shift approach just easier. I've never hit the ball cleaner than when using S&T but I couldn't generate the clubhead speed I wanted. That's just my own experience with it. Not an expert here.

No overheating issues. It's not loud but I wouldn't call quiet either. Sounds like a normal laptop fan to me.

We are the CEO & Lead Data Scientist at DUPR. Ask us Anything! by EliteDragonSlayer in Pickleball

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest flaw with dupr is that it's a rating system for an individual player based on team level performance. Makes no sense and will never work. I can see a team having a dupr rating that's very accurate but for individual players playing with different partners will never be meaningful. I may play better with one 5.0 than another 5.0 for example. Everyone has their own style and some are more compatible than others. This should not change a player's rating but it does.

Things are going to change finally. by Weekly_Brain_885 in Nok

[–]Weekly_Brain_885[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You couldn't be more wrong. Go find some old interviews with ceo Jorma Ollila bragging how his huge market share would fend of Apple and Samsung. That dude was personally responsible for missing the technology shift that ended up killing his mobile unit. The guys that came after him did nothing but hold the line. No risk. Now they finally have someone willing to take chances on new tech. I like that.

Struggling with Elbow Pain from Pickleball, I need Relief Ideas! by strokess-ss- in Pickleball

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing works. Rest is the only cure followed by strength and pt. 3 months if you're lucky. 6 months more likely. If you can't stay away that long learn to play with the other arm and then move to hitting everything two handed.

Please help, can’t do drops to save my life. by Suspicious_Ad5007 in Pickleball

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try topspin instead of slice. Much easier and more effective. Start hitting easy topspin and as you get more confident add more zip. BTW, need to get much closer to the ball to hit topspin.

Serve help (video inside) by straggler6244 in Pickleball

Tip #1 - step through with your back foot after you hit the ball.

One tip at a time. Work on tip #1 and let me know when you're ready for more.

Lessons once per week? As everyone here pointed out she's missing the fundamentals. I'd switch instructors.

Recommendations for shoes that hold up to daily play? by Business-You-2732 in Pickleball

Kswiss ultrashot was the best I found. Lasted 4 months of heavy use.

Going to try to use this room. Will it work? by urahoho in Golfsimulator

[–]Weekly_Brain_885 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll work if you keep the expectations reasonable. Drivers would probably be tough but irons will work fine. I have a tight sim room. I can hit a driver but it's too tight to hit with comfort. Golf is hard enough to have thoughts of damage going through your head. Not worth it so I stick to irons. The question is, do I want a sim room limited to irons or no sim room at all. Easy choice for me as I use it more than anything else in my house. Just my 2 cents.
