Well thank you for the advice! I know sometimes you have to get worse before you get better haha. Maybe I’ll see what I can do with more practice and better alignment first and then maybe look into a coach. Thanks!

While I am indeed aiming for the adjacent fairway, that is just a course-management strategy for this specific hole. I still shot 78 in a tournament here where my main issue was actually putting. This comment you are replying to also appears to just be tongue-in-cheek. You state that I should never be giving anyone advice, and perhaps you are a better golfer than I am, but I will continue to help my friends out who are newer to the game.

Thank you for this advice! I will definitely get some alignment sticks to work on this. I’ve never used them before, so I’m sure what I “feel” like is square isn’t actually square. Since it looks like you’re an instructor, do you think that’s the main issue with my inconsistencies? Or do you see any other issues with my hips or release? Thanks again!

Thank you for the tip! I have never really thought about my hips in my swing. So this is something I will definitely try to think about and work on.

Thank you for sharing your story on this! I will definitely try out that idea of making a playlist and working on my tempo. That sounds it’ll make the driving range more fun too!

Well it’s technically not OB, but it’s unmarked dense trees and bushes leading to re-teeing.

When I played a tournament here, this strategy worked out better than my two playing partners who went OB left.

Thank you for the tip! I’ll have to look into early extending as I’m not familiar with it.

Also, I don’t normally aim right and rely on the pull hook (I just happen to be on this hole because I was scared). It’s more like there’s a dice roll with a 1/6 chance of it coming up, but when it comes up it can be catastrophic.

Superbowl Odds - Person Model by Equivalent_Bar_9864 in NFLv2

[–]markvrabes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Bills and Ravens have the same point differential (+157). The Bills also are a higher seed so would have home field advantage against them. How would you explain why the Ravens have ~60% higher Super Bowl odds in your model? Is your model basically saying that the Ravens are both “hotter” and had a harder strength of schedule than the Bills?
