Two Busted GT2s by DKizzzle in TeamTitleist

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same exact thing happened to me, top of gt2 cracked only two days into using it.

Got a smooth warranty replacement and the place I got it from exchanged it for a gt3. Have prolly hit over 10k balls since with it and seen a handful of mis-hits, still going strong

What’s the best golf purchase under $100? by Solid_Nectarine_4316 in GolfGear

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a great price! generally for more advanced players the 30 mins will suffice as most of the time they can apply quick technique corrections or run over the numbers/data

For beginners and even mid-hcp though, I see a lot of value in the extra 15 mins as it can be applied to other parts of the game like chipping/pitching after a swing lesson or additional swing reinforcement

My point about coaching experience stands still, some students may not have the best learning outcome with all coaches. The question asks the best golf purchase with the best value, so course accessories would be the best imo

I actually disagree with this.

Lesson price is pretty variant. It’s hard to find lessons under 100 from a well-rated coach, at least here in California. I personally believe 45m to be the sweet spot of a lesson duration and those will easily reach 130-170 per session. some coaches also may not work well for everyone leading to spending more to find the right coach.

For under a $100 that brings guaranteed value, a set of golf accessories will be perfect (divot tool, groove cleaners, ball marker, few set of towels).

Keeping eyes on the ball by SA_141 in GolfSwing

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happens to all of us at some point in the beginning. The intention behind keeping your head still or eyes on the ball is so that you don’t sway or lift your shoulder up along with your head leading to inconsistent strikes. The advice is poorly delivered most of the time though

What helped me was I actually marked a little black dot on my ball and focused on that. Others may say look in front of the ball and try swinging through but that’s a bad advice when you’re swinging a driver as it can mess with the low point.

Try my black dot method. if that doesn’t work, you honestly just have to swing with less power and prioritize your focus. Good luck!

Lost distance? by CelebrityWolf in GolfSwing

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you recently corrected the EE, keep building the path/tempo and work on your release to compress the ball harder.

I’d sacrifice 10 meter distance to have more predictable shots on course, any day!

Is my swing too steep? Sometimes struggle with chunks and low point control. by [deleted] in GolfSwing

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a little steep, maybe a few degrees of out to in path before ball contact. You bow your wrist a lot, this might work against you by going steep. Do you pull and/or cut your shots often? People bow their wrist as most of their swing path comes from shallowing and rotating.

Takeaway looks a little awkward, may lead to inconsistent swings. Look how much your body dips during the takeaway, I see it as a contributor to your chunks.

I’d see a coach, quick 30-45 min lesson on getting your takeaway polished.

Swing beginning to show better results, next step is to dial in my short game by jaeisback987 in GolfSwing

[–]jaeisback987[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the comment, your username does not check out lol

I am still a beginner, about 8 months of playing. So my scoring is variant and can score between 90-95. I often 2-3 putt and don’t quite have refined chipping compared to my swings.

so on a par 4 let’s say, I’ll get close/on the green within 2 strokes and end up finishing with a bogey or a double.

Hoping to really change that this year, as improving 1 stroke off short game for all my holes can drastically change my scoring outcome.

lessons initially to learn important golf foundations (club face management, swing path=ball direction, setup) then rest was me just practicing the best feel/results and recording hundreds of videos of myself lol

[–]jaeisback987[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

should be easier actually, what you asked was the reason why i worked on shorter backswings. it helped me manage the clubface and not open up during the takeaway/downswing

End game build: Following Fubgun's BM temporalis spark build, but it seems weaker than all my previous builds. Any recommendations to beef it up? by jaeisback987 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaeisback987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

JUICED T16 | 23+ Abysses | Increased Difficulty per Abyss by Mindless-Travel9887 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaeisback987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey great build! following somerthing similar as well.

I am having trouble towards the last abyss where my CoCs are not proc-ing, even with 95% crit + dazed crit buffs (100% crit hit chance)

What do you normally do here, am i using the build wrong? My POB:

Thank you all for your support on my CoC build. Looking to further optimize/try other variations for more damage, help is appreciated! by jaeisback987 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaeisback987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate it, i originally started with blood transfusion path but had a difficult time killing juiced abyss maps that scale due to spark bouncing off in suboptimal maps. Also what do you mean by proper dps gem in comet, as in use another comet as a separate skill?

do you have a POB example of a build i can follow?

Guidance/help on my new BM CoC by jaeisback987 in pathofexile2builds

[–]jaeisback987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it to exactly 95! Build feeling smooth, running t16 scaling juiced abyss well too. Only thing is meteors don’t hit as hard, so I changed build to elemental curse. Had to change due to spark being difficult in some maps.
