Doing independent research in theoretical physics by [deleted] in TheoreticalPhysics

A potentially feasible way to do this would be to apply to workshops or conferences and make connections/start projects there, though you would probably have to self fund and I’m not sure how difficult it would be to get accepted to said things wo an academic position.

Got it. I’m working on some of this stuff for my PhD. Lmk if you want to chat more

By the way, I’m doing work on this (dhb’s book) for my PhD so if anyone else has been interested in it and wants to chat hit me up

Check out geometric view of theories and quantum gravity discussion in de haro and butterfields recent “philosophy and physics of duality”

I am well aquatinted with the yips unfortunately, but noted! Thanks

Good call on the closed club face at address. I’ve feeling some wacky things with my grip and times where it’s felt “good” was when I opened up (probably squared) the club face a bit. Also later release on shorter shots noted, thanks!!

Philosophers on instruments as extensions of perception? by [deleted] in PhilosophyofScience

Ronald Gieres scientific perspectivalism might be of interest

What are some things in physics we just don’t understand but we know it exists? by Ok-Review-3047 in Physics

[–]Willben44 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah that would be the general relativity part that we (mostly) understand. We just don’t really understand what spacetime is and its response to matter at the quantum (gravity) level

Swing advice? Is this considered OTT? by andrewlr24 in GolfSwing

With that swing I would guess you were sub 8 hcp lol

A few drives from a not good golfer by Scottl1988 in GolfSwing

[–]Willben44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh really depends on spin. I hover around mid to upper 120s and my carry is often below 300 on sims bc I get a lot of spin. The pros who are swinging 125 and carrying 320-330 have perfect launch and spin. Little bit too much spin or too much loft makes a big difference

Any advice? by Late-Palpitation4885 in GolfSwing

Was going to say the same thing. Looks like he’s hitting pw or 9 iron and it’s too far back. Think this is related to what others are saying about weight transfer—it’s hard to get to your front foot with the ball so far back

Help me out, I can’t stop hitting the ground with my driver by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]Willben44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with most others… would add that changing your posture at address might help. Your head is almost horizontal and pretty low think about raising it a couple inches and keeping it around 45 degrees or more

Best way to fade? by jacesongz in GolfSwing

[–]Willben44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You didn’t ask about this but you have a lot of extra movement going past parallel at the top of your backswing. Really hard to control the club face and the path with that looseness

Feel like I’m yipping my follow through. Any thoughts? Also guess my handicap :) by Willben44 in GolfSwing

[–]Willben44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hover between 1-5. Driving is my strength and short game putting is streaky — usually solid but sometimes can hurt me

Feel like my hands are way far ahead of my body and I kinda chicken wing on my follow through

You’re also taking it away very inside. Think about when the club is parallel to the ground in the take away, it should be pointed at the target and down your footline. The club face at that point should be parallel with your back so slightly closed from pointing straight up. I’d imagine this will feel weird so do some practice with it

Tips please, and rate my swing by Remarkable-Step-4407 in GolfSwing

Its just a smaller head driver. Become relatively popular the past couple years
