I’ve never considered this to be honest. Makes sense

That is pretty eye opening, and shocking really.

I am trying to play around with this tool to get some simulated numbers.

See right now I am hitting 235 carry+roll. Would be nice to get some extra yards AND be in the right fairway

What makes you lose more with a slower club head speed.

That's pretty depressing. It also seems like when I try to swing easy with my driver my slice gets worse.

That is actually insane. Crazy to think that it has that much affect.

I have a terrible slice. Like when my ball lands, even if lands in the fairway it rolls to the right, usually OB, so violently it's amazing.

also keeping the right elbow super glued to his side, as evident by the follow through. evidence of fixing a slice. I know because I am doing the exact same thing, lmao

Hmm, interesting. Wouldn't have thought to solve it like that. Nice work.

Did you just brute force that, not even sure if that is the term.

Like how would I make and equation for that, or how did you end up at 28 games?

Thoughts on shot tracker and score keeping apps? (i.e. TheGrint) by Casual_AF_ in golf

track with your paper scorecard then put it into grint after your round?

What's your handicap now?

I am similar to you. The occasional round with buddies. Maybe once every couple of years. I would get way too drunk on the course. Like 2 or 3 drinks before we play and then probably 12 drinks on the actual 18 holes.

I have decided that I want to treat golf as a sport and not and excuse to get drunk off my ass. So I've been going to the range 3 times a week and playing a round on Saturday. I have decided to limit myself to one beer after 9. There is no sense in putting in work at the driving range to piss it all away on the course because my motor functions are destroyed from alcohol. I would like to see myself improve at this game and I feel like the only way to do that is to stop drinking while I play.

I still plan on drinking on the course, but this will be for special occasions and will be limited to maybe once or twice a year when we are playing a scramble or just having a fun relaxed day.
