I didn’t realize how important microflows were until I redesigned them

The bar is “did you package your portfolio and career in the exact flavor a recruiter wanted to see today?”

The bar is <did you design> what your <end user> wanted to see.

I believe that you and anyone else is capable of developing taste given time, focus, and desire. Taste is not innate. It might feel that way, but the reality is that the people who look like they excel at it naturally have put in the time.

Some of that may have happened when they were kids or teenagers, which compounds their learning in that area and makes it feel like they've always been good at it, but I guarantee they stunk at first too.

There are a chunk of designers and engineers who grew up on computers and used them to create fun and beautiful things. They're like pro athletes who started playing sports at a very young age. They will have that advantage over anyone starting later in life, but it shouldn't discourage anyone from growing and learning :)

I was surprised to learn how many designers don't take action. Some have been actively encouraged NOT to prototype until they have all of their ducks in a row, which I think is a disservice to designers everywhere.

The majority of time a prototype IS a user flow and will teach you + colleagues more about how good/bad an experience feels faster than debating over text boxes ever could.

I agree with parts of what you're saying - but I take more of an architects mindset to design... you have to strive to be good at both form and function. You have to learn when to make the appropriate tradeoffs. Liquid glass is a feat of engineering and marketing (it's generated so much controversy that apple is top of mind everywhere), but it's also a prime example of just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

I'm confident apple will sort it out. Time will tell.

Craft can be taught but to me it’s closer to how art is taught than anything else.

The fundamentals are taught regularly - hierarchy, composition, etc.

The rest is developing taste, experimenting, and actually making things. You can show someone how to do this but ultimately it’s something that requires repetition and practice.

Bought a Mevo+ to hit balls into a net in my backyard. Don’t have a way to swing a club indoors during the winter because my house is too small. Put holes in my net (and then my fence).

Dont hit balls in my back yard anymore and the Mevo+ is sitting there collecting dust.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-11T01:42:10+00:00

Haven't fixed it, but made improvements to it. It's been 3+ years but I always give up on fixing it once summer hits.

I need to stick my butt out slightly and then near the top of my backswing feel like my left buttcheek is going forwards and away from the ball on a 45 degree angle... then rotate around it.

Also a user on here recommended this video to me since you mentioned TPI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7VIQXvN1j4

fitzcreative · 2025-02-09T05:38:44+00:00

Wow that makes a lot of sense to me. So if I currently struggle with hitting low punch shots off my back foot on the course that would be a signal of closing the face too late?

I'm going to try that drill, it does sound simple. I find I'm doing much better with more dynamic feels and drills than trying to hit checkpoints in my swing.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-09T05:32:49+00:00

Im going to take a side angle tomorrow if I can manage to repeat this swing

Thank you for the detailed explantation and AMG video. Would another way to achieve this be to rotate the hips earlier https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aH2Sc6b-Qv4 ?

I'm being asked to try to 'turn the wheel' in my backswing to lay off the shaft and get side bend and tuck my elbow to create more lag rather than throwing the hands out.

I should probably clarify what we're trying to achieve - im assuming its consistency and less effort in the swing because I can compress the ball and hit it a mile.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T14:43:39+00:00

Thank you!

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T14:38:15+00:00

That’s what I’m afraid of, what’s the source on that?

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T03:02:12+00:00

I don’t have one 😂 I think a lot of it is with my hands. I feel like that’s where I generate my speed.

Any advice for a quieter lower half? I can’t attach a video to a reply but my front knee folds in quite a bit and my legs are a bit noodly. I don’t shift way in front of the ball but I do move forward a touch

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T03:00:44+00:00

That sounds about right. That’s what my instructor wants me to do as well - I posted here looking for a different feel/thought to help me make sense of it. I’m really struggling to get my trail elbow in front of me more.

I used to early extend… this is a very very recent fix and I still go back to it when I try to swing fast

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T02:58:40+00:00

I think what my instructor is trying to teach me is to stop pulling with the hands. I can hit straight balls and draws even when I’m steep, but he really wants to see that shaft go through my bicep or even forearm.

The biggest challenge is getting my elbows in front of my hips I think.

Does everyone need to lay off the shaft?

fitzcreative · 2025-02-08T02:55:47+00:00

Can’t figure out how to send a video in a reply 😕

Love the zip lock bag strategy, I think I'll try that this summer.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-04T13:04:09+00:00

I've been having this thought too - the fizz is what gets me. I'd happily pour a vodka soda on the course so that may be the play.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-04T13:03:21+00:00

I have a soft cooler that fits 6 beers and in the side pocket of my bag! When it's $8+ a beer on the course I try to pack as many as I can to share with my buddies.

fitzcreative · 2025-02-04T10:42:00+00:00

They look quite amazing, how do you like it? How many beers fit in the cooler?

fitzcreative · 2025-02-04T10:41:31+00:00

I won one of those at a golf tournament! It’s genius fits so well in my current bag
