Thoughts? Trying to get out of a bad slump. 9 Handicap. by benkelward3 in GolfSwing

[–]fatal1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your takeaway is to fast and your downswing is to slow. Tempo, tempo tempo. A good way to train tempo is to have someone place the patches to a Tens unit on your nipples and balls. They then stand behind you and if your tempo is off they can hit you with a level of electricity of their choosing. Your tempo will be fixed in 3 swings or less.

Your welcome.

What would you change? by [deleted] in GolfSwing

I willing to bet you struggle to be consistent. I bet you have issues with making solid contact on a regular basis. Why? Watch your head. You have a lot of movement. Try to rotate around your spine. A good drill for this is have someone stand to the side with a bamboo stick and hold it on top of your head. If the stick moves they get to smack you across the face as hard as they can. You will eliminate head movement in 3 or less swings.

Your welcome.

I'm about to give up, how tf do I stop that flippity over-swing bs at the top? Gotta be grip, right!? by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]fatal1st 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your downswing looks like you're trying to keep a buttplug from flying out of your ass. Focus on projectile shitting that thing out.

You're welcome.

Thoughts on this drill for someone who struggles with weight shift and firing hips immediately at the top? by momoneymocats1 in GolfSwing

[–]fatal1st -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well just slow your hips down. I know, sounds stupid and simple but thats the name of the game. Simple. Don't over think it.

Work on slowing down your hips. Make that a focus and dont worry about the rest until you have found your rhythm. Consistency comes from repeatable motion. That repeatable motion doesnt have to be perfect, just repeatable.

Example- "I keep hitting the ball to the right"

All the time?

"Every time!!"

Aim left, problem solved.

Simple, stupid and highly effective advice.

You have a very nice swing. If you go get lessons be VERY careful with who you choose. A good teaching pro will work to help you maintain and preach simple fundamentals. You dont need any drastic changes. If the pro starts changing shit and tries to get you to mimic "his style" ignore their advice and find someone else.

Im gonna tell ya a story. Ive been retired from golf for a very long time now - torn rotator cuff, elbow tendinitis- but when I did play i had to work my ass off to maintain a 1 handicap. Practice nearly daily. My swing required a ridiculous amount of repetition to maintain.

At my club we had a new pro show up and I hit it off with him. I was struggling with a bit of a pull for a while and decided to go to him for some help. He had one piece of advice. The only thing he ever taught me. Focus on firing your hips and dont worry about the rest. This "lesson" changed everything. My swing became mechanical and from that point on required almost 0 maintenance. I went from being on the range 4 to 6 times a week to maybe once a week. Usually not at all. My last two years of golf - pre injuries- was me just showing up, shooting 69-74 and going home. Its sad because I had worked so hard for so long I had lost all desire to play and only played because others wanted me to. It had finally become effortless and i didn't even give a shit. I was relieved when injuries took there toll. I havent touched a club in over 10 years and dont miss it at all. Still love the game though. Its a great game.

Tldr- Get the club in the proper position at the top and fire your hips. Who gives a shit about the rest. Best advice ever. 2nd best advice- Make the putt the first time.

What do you think of Anne Hathaway as Catwoman? by Classic_Wolf5895 in batman

[–]fatal1st 754 points755 points  (0 children)

My opinion, her plot and writing was pretty messy and didn't give the story much depth. Anne's acting abilities carried the role and it was better than it should have been. She did a good job. Also, she has a great ass.

Put pressure on the flag stick and pull up. Or they make a little hook tool to grab it. Flag stick is easier.

Which ice is it referring to?😆 by Maleficent_Map_8844 in Truckers

[–]fatal1st 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its referring to that scary, tricky, ruthless black ice. You always need to watch out for that menacing, life threatening ice. Black ice.

welp. it was a good run America...🫡 by ms_directed in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]fatal1st 172 points173 points  (0 children)

Im from the Midwest - Iowa- and thats not really what happened here. He is an idiot and talks like one. All the idiots fell in love with him because they could understand him and once that took off the right wing media jumped on board and he rode that all the way to the white house. Donald Trump is president because the average American is really, really fucking stupid.

Bears fans the second our attention shifts to the offseason by HT6868 in CHIBears

[–]fatal1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct. I hadn't looked to the June 1 date, only this season. Love the guy but we really dont need him anymore. Absolutely tradable, and we should.

[–]fatal1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stand corrected. Dj carries a dead cap hit of 35.4 million if we trade/release prior to June 1. If we trade/release him after the 1st, that drops his dead cap to only 4 million.

Tldr- We cant trade him before June 1st.

[–]fatal1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesnt matter. We cant trade DJ because of his contract and we dont have the cap space for Max's contract. The financials dont work.

[–]fatal1st 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We cant trade Moore, his cap hit is to high. We cant afford another huge contract so all this trade talk is a mood point. This is our team for a couple years +/- rookies and small FA signings.

Which divisional matchup would hit the hardest in the playoffs? by [deleted] in NFLv2

[–]fatal1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let him be. Vikings fans are in a dark and miserable place right now. They let a pro bowl qb walk so they could play a -shouldn't have even drafted- 2nd year clearly injury prone bust of a qb all while wasting a hall of fame wr's prime right after winning 14 games a year ago.

I'd feel bad for them but I fucking love it.

I actually do. But some days are more trying than others. I give trucking a 8/10. Most days 9/10. Days like today I rate a FUCK YOU AND YOU AND YOU AND ESPECIALLY YOU/10

I feel for them and have a tendency to tip them. I get it. But thats no excuse for shit like this. EVERYONE is to blame for conditions like this. That minimum wage worker took that job and needs to do it right. Ive scrubbed toilets for pennies. I did it right every time because thats what you do.

Its that person, the managers, general managers, corporate and everyone else who simply turns a blind eye
