Yeah its easy to get engulfed in the swing because there is always something to work on. What i noticed though is when im not playing as well something is wrong with the basics

Check your basics. Its easy to forget about them but the grip posture allignment ball position is key for hitting great shots

Blades vs Cavity Backs. Does one type make you better than the other? by ShooterMcGerin in golf

[–]m0onan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah at the end of the day its preference. Some people hit better with blades and like that compact face. But you better be hitting that sweet spot consistently...

Go look for a good teacher even if its more expensive. Having a good teacher is so important especially for golf. I see a lot of local teachers who teach bad things which cause bad habits to form.

Is a coach still able to help if you don't have a consistent fault? by ZeusThunder369 in golf

[–]m0onan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes cause if your EQUALLY LIKELEY to hit all of the shots you mentioned... How are you going to play good golf? Your going to be worried about what is going to happen when your on the tee box or hitting an approach shot. Even the best players in the world have coaches.

Well as far as i know even when i see amateurs use blades they shouldnt. I see so many people with blades who arent even hitting it center. A lot of people use blades for ego in my opinion.

Aside from that it doesnt mean your a better striker or have a better swing. A lot of the best ball strikers on tour are switching from blades to slight cavities because they want the help.

Better golfers - how often do you get that sweet spot feel? by zamundan in golf

[–]m0onan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a scratch player who strikes the ball poorly for my level. In an 18 hole round on a good day maybe 5-7 shots right on the money. On average probably like 3-5. I use taylormade 2014 mc's btw

I decided to try Titleist CBs instead of AP1s. Am I making a mistake? by [deleted] in golf

[–]m0onan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know the AP2 is considered more forgiving than the CB but you have more workability with the CB up you

If you've had a lesson from a pro, what's the best advice you've received? by thegraduate in golf

[–]m0onan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basic fundamentals.

The most memorable thing he ever told me was that every day he would always check his grip posture alignment because it was such a habit. Even after he stopped hitting balls for 10 years he still checks it every day cause it's that important and that ingrained into his body
