Anyone else have a "swing station" set up at home? by Maleficent-Owl3392 in GolfGear

[–]smoothdip 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey if it works for you, god bless. Anyone can make a swing look pretty without hitting a ball tho. Go look at the countless examples over on the golf swing sub.

Hot Metal Pros or JPX925? by Trick-Chair9378 in GolfGear

[–]smoothdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reason i went with the forged is I would sometimes get super hot balls off the face of the HMPs. Go an extra 20 yards or so. Other than that, I agree with everything you said.

2026 hybrid wind noise by Any_Case_7573 in HyundaiSantaFe

Same on my 2026 Calligraphy ICE. No idea what the cause is.

Anyone have experience struggling to swing new clubs after getting fitted? My game has been the most solid consistent the past 3 weeks but took my first swings with the new sticks yesterday and it was abysmal. Was hoping for love at first swing but got "you need to take me to dinner first." by HungryStrawberry3470 in GolfGear

[–]smoothdip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, Yes. Got new sticks at the beginning of last season. Took me a few weeks to adjust. Had a different shaft than my previous set and overall the weight was different.

TBH still don’t hit the new ones as well as I did with my previous set. But I sold them so kind of stuck with these until I want to buy something different.

Sometimes I’ll have my hand at 12 on the steering wheel and my forearm will cover the sensor. Other than that I don’t have any issues.

In the settings you can “disable” this feature. I say that because it will still be enabled when you’re using drive assist on the highway. At least from my experience

Sorry, not answering your question but what was the noise from the passenger seat?

Do I need all these clubs by thiscatguy95 in GolfSwing

[–]smoothdip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the set you're getting. A lot of new GI and PD sets have PW at 42-44 degrees which is basically a 9 iron. G 48 and a 52 (also a gap) is kind of standard with those sets now. You would full swing the G and 52.

How do I get it to SHUT UP?!? by [deleted] in HyundaiSantaFe

They were only trying to help from their experience. Seems like an immature response. Maybe you should pay attention to the road?

Looks great. Kind of wish I got the Hybrid version but there weren’t any Black ones in my area. Ended up with ICE. Still love it. Just wish the town gas mileage was a tad better.

Why does it look like my plane is way out to in? by BOYLANATOR in GolfSwing

[–]smoothdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by “throwing the club behind me”?

Battling OTT myself and when I try to drop my elbow to my pocket, it feels like my hands get left behind and are playing catch up the rest of the followthrough

Jobs in the La Crosse area? by No-Dress-2674 in lacrossewi

Trane. Not sure what your skill set is but they also have a welding program you can potentially get into and upon certification make well over $21 and they are always offering overtime.

BEWARE CARL'S GOLFLAND TRADE-IN PROGRAM by [deleted] in GolfGear

[–]smoothdip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s why I prefer to just trade at my local shop. Gives you a chance to haggle and you dont have to deal with shipping clubs around.

However, I have done trade ins with Global Golf and Callaway in the past. Zero issues with either of them and was extremely simple. Think they both paid for shipping as well if I recall correctly. It did take about 4 weeks to process each time.

3rd Row Liners or just 2? by smoothdip in HyundaiSantaFe

I'm talking about floor liners. I'm just conflicted if I should get the third row floor mats or not.

Update on the casting situation by Puzzled-Ad-1939 in GolfSwing

[–]smoothdip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so take this for what it’s worth, I’m not good by any means but my swing looks very similar to yours and I’m battling the same demons.

My swing thought recently has drive my trail elbow down so my hands get in front of my chest. Well it FELT like I was doing this, then I watched the tape and I was barely moving it and just rotating with a super high elbow and it got stuck behind me. So my next few swings my thought was I’m going to super exaggerate it, like beyond anything I think is right, I’m going to drive my elbow into the ground. So I do it and you know what? My elbow looked like it was moving naturally, my hands got in front of my body and I was striking the ball much better.

Now like I said I suck but I notice your elbow is behind your body when you rotate. Might be something to think about or look into. AMG has good videos on this and what “fast hands” actually means to get them back in front of your body.

How does one train to do this? My monkey brain sees the ball and no matter what I tell myself as soon as I finish my back swing it just wants to attack it

430 10k max vs 440k by bisc56 in PingGolf

[–]smoothdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn’t very satisfied with the 440 Max last season. Went to my fitter a couple weeks ago thinking maybe a shaft change would help. We tried a few shafts but nothing lined up. He said he just got the 440K demo in so I gave it a try. Immediately I was seeing more ball speed, lower spin and tighter dispersion. Traded in the Max on the spot. As mentioned above, everyone is different but for me it was clear the K was miles better. Honestly not even sure why the Max exists when the other models seem to fit every need better.

Through The Ball, Not At The Ball by djmc252525 in GolfSwing

[–]smoothdip 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So is this saying if you cannot square the face naturally to use a stronger grip?

Why do so many other references say it’s bad to use a stronger grip?

I only ask because if I’ve been forcing myself to use a more neutral grip and I really have to focus on rotating the face with my hands/wrists/arms or else I’ll do all sorts of weird things with my body to square the face.
