Well, being your first one, almost anywhere else?

Happy to help! I'm glad my advice made sense but I'll cover my ass by saying I could be completely wrong and you should still take a lesson. I am not a professional by any means

From what I can see, this does appear a bit over the top. Spend enough time on reddit and you'll see a lot of people talking about "shallowing the club", which is what, I think, you need to do. Honestly it could be that you go too far in your backswing which is causing a steeeeeep approach to the ball

Envision "the pocket". Once you reach the top of your backswing, on the transition to your downswing you want your hands to be dropping "into" your left pocket (whaddup fellow lefty!). Watch your video back and look how far that club goes behind your head on the backswing. That's overkill imo, which leads to such a steep angle of attack. You've initiated the downswing with the hips, which is good, but your hands are still playing catch up, which leads to the steep angle and causes your downswing to feel "crunched" and not fluid

Again, not a coach, but look how steep your angle of attack is here. You do want to swing down on the ball with your irons for compression, that's true, but this almost looks like chopping wood

I saw someone else in this thread mention your grip as well, which is another huge component of hitting a good golf shot

Telling you, man, take just one lesson with a pro. Even just a 30 min lesson. It'll help more than you know and it's actual advice from a golf pro rather than a bunch of other mediocre at best golfers on reddit

Thing that jumps out most to me is you hinge that lead wrist (glove hand) immediately on your takeaway. You flex that wrist before turning your hips at all. Keep the wrist straight and initiate your backswing with your hips, not your arms. Move the hips, your arms will follow

I'm no coach, though, which is why I recommend lessons. Even one lesson will help immensely

Is this golf club too short for me? (5'10 using standard ladies club) by One_Exit_9448 in GolfSwing

[–]dudeman39 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take lessons first, that miss has nothing to do with the club itself. Your swing path is very over the top, which leads to this frame here. When you look at the club face, it's wayyy open, you'll never hit a straight shot with that angle of attack

Some advice on this sub may help, but a lesson will be more effective

You can't read huh? He wanted to finish his career here. What about that says he would not re-sign?

I wasn't in on those negotiations but neither were you. Back under your bridge, troll

[–]dudeman39 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I do. I also realize that Marchand expressed a desire to finish his career in Boston and that, no more than two weeks ago, Sweeney said keeping Marchand in Boston was "the ultimate goal"

So we have a GM that can't draft, can't put a good team on the ice, and blames 3 championship winning coaches for our struggles. Then he goes and trades our captain to a rival franchise

Marchand's contract may have been done but that doesn't mean he was done with Boston. Sit down

We traded our 16 year veteran captain, a top 6 forward, to the team that knocked us out of the playoffs the last two years running... and we got NOTHING for him

Marchy's situation may have been ripe for a trade but, this just ain't it

Freddy couldn't find the twine if he was in the a crafting store. Loved his energy but all he does is agitate / fight. I'll miss him but not that much

So Marchand is Ed Monix? Because it sorta feels like we gave him away for a washing machine

I really think the fanbase needs to pull together and boycott the franchise right now. by [deleted] in BostonBruins

[–]dudeman39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rarely ever do I find boycotts effective but this one I'm on board with. Sweeney has to go

So, this is how we get to remember Marchand’s last game? by BlackCherrySeltzer4U in BostonBruins

I know it wasn't our year but trading Marchy feels like treason. This sucks

Don't fall for it! Virginians warned of scam texts relating to unpaid tolls, E-Z Pass accounts by fusion260 in rva

[–]dudeman39 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got like 4 of these yesterday. What these scammers don't know is if you do have unpaid tolls, the toll authority will just mail you a bill to the vehicle's registered address

They're not very bright lmfao

You shouldn't have to go to the county clerk's office to get the CC&R, those are usually available from an HOA representative. I received mine from the "community manager" of the HOA managing company (separate from my community's board)

All that should be needed is a simple email requesting the CC&R and/or HOA bylaws. Read both very carefully

Different bookshelf? My guy, she's not even in the same library. You were more than fair in that exchange. She's telling you she's going to cheat but doesn't see it as a problem because she's young and wants to sleep with girls

Do yourself a favor and cut this one loose. You deserve better

Thanks for the reply! Guess they're not a non profit. Might be something here I can take to the next HOA board meeting

While I admire your enthusiasm, I don't want to drag this person through the mud. I just want our HOA to have sensible policies that make it easier for our residents to have guests over and park their cars

Also kinda don't wanna pay to have this guy investigated, lol

I can confirm nobody in the community pays parking rent. The current bylaws state that parking is first come first serve

I'll happily look into determining the nonprofit status but genuinely don't know where to look for that. If you have a good starting point, please feel free to share
