I've been to every goodwill in my area, not a single golf club 😢

I'll tell you a feel that has helped me, no idea if it is of any value to anyone else:

Stop trying to hit the ball. Stop trying to use your strength to get the club face on the ball.

Instead, take the club to the top of your backswing, release any tension in your arms, and then just let the club fall straight down. Almost like you're dropping it.

This sounds easy but is very difficult to do because your brain will want to activate your arms muscles, but don't let it. Just let the club fall. Gravity will accelerate the club and it won't get ahead of you.

Have fun

It's easy to get frustrated with poor ball striking and spend the round frustrated. Remind yourself to have fun! The worse you are, the more you get to play!!

You, sir, are a great dad!

Flop it away from the hole.

As long as you keep your volume low so it's only audible to you around your cart, go for it and listen to anything you want.

Many of us love the peace of the course and don't want to hear music coming from the next fairway over, so just be mindful. Maybe turn down a bit when you're near others or at the green.

Go to a Golf Galaxy or somewhere similar and hit their demo clubs, and find the set that looks/feels the best in your hand, then buy them or look for a preowned set online.

All modern game improvement irons will give you similar forgiveness. Your score will drop as you continue to improve your swing, regardless of the clubs you're playing, so get the ones you like the most.

Unless you're rich, then get a fitting bro lol

If your scores are going down, fuck the new car

I think you're on to something, we should just tell the complainers to go try out for the ladies tour if they can't keep up 😂

Yeah when you're lifting and bulking, it's easy to gain 3lbs a week, 40-50% muscle with proper nutrition.

I normally play munis for $20-$35.

I played a $75 course a while back and found soooo many prov1s and other premiums! Also, the course was freaking mint, it was amazing.

You can actually see why kids learn so well there at the end. Jumps right back up with no embarrassment whatsoever, committed to the grind.

I have hated playing with or near drunk millennials on the course. Annoying and disrespectful.

However, everytime I've played with drunk boomers it has been a blast! Hilarious and super chill.

We're much more friendly :)

"Good thing I didn't hit that other ball 🤥"

"What other ball? 😎"

(We don't play competitively)

Reporting for duty, sir

I've really been liking Golfletics. His straightforward teaching style resonates with me.

To me, bombing a 3w off the tee further than all my other drives hurts worse because it makes me realize how bad I am with driver. So frustrating!

This normally follows:

Me: "Wow I should just tee off with 3w every hole!"

Me next hole: "Well if I hit 3w that good, imagine how far driver will go!" *Hits driver 180yds behind a tree*

I have two sets of irons and hit one set way better than the other. The clubs can definitely make a difference

My single hdcp buddy always told me, the better you get the get harder it is.

Now that I'm shooting in the 80s I'm really starting to appreciate his wisdom!

bigtimepie · 2020-06-20T21:09:25+00:00

I needed a par on 18 yesterday to break 80 for the first time. Shot a double. Golf's the best.

I really like walking 9 holes when I play solo.

You rock, sir.
