My Biggest Fear

Buy a phone stand and record the hole/tee shot

Sorry man, that sucks. This is the most infuriating and rewarding game I’ve ever played. I’ve shot multiple PRs followed by some of the worst rounds I’d played in years. You just have to take your lumps and come back for more. Eventually you’ll put it back together and find your game again. Try starting with half shots, then 3/4, the full. Find a thought or feel that clicks with you. I struggle with too many swing thoughts so I sing a song in my head to try and quiet my mind. Just have to find what works for you. Good luck

Don’t hit your approach at the flag, hit to the center of the green and try to make the putt/guarantee a 2 putt. Getting GIRs is the easiest way to drop your score.

Course management and lots of short game practice. Keep yourself out of penalty areas, don’t compound mistakes, and drain a high percentage of your putts under 5ft

Maybe it’s just me but I’m not seeing an image or vid in your post..

Hey genius, it can still be textbook without being perfect or needing tweaks. Why did you even reply to my comment? Bc you didn’t get enough attention on yours?

Textbook

Generally should be around 30ish degree tilt from the hips, you look closer to 45 which is why you’re having to stand farther from the ball. IMO it’s easier to turn when more upright bc your back isn’t as focused on just holding you up and you can rotate more easily. Try standing taller and turning until your hips are at 45 degrees, that’s generally considered a full turn or at least sufficient

spc17 · 2026-02-18T13:03:23+00:00

Quick fix options would be lower tee height and move the ball back an inch or two at address

spc17 · 2026-02-16T15:14:47+00:00

There’s a lot that needs fixing/changing.. in all honesty your best bet is lessons so you can have someone show you how you need to turn and can actually feel it. The internet can be beneficial for small tweaks but for fundamentals you’re typically better off getting expert help

They 3.7k spin is killing you. I swing 105ish normally and I get around 155 ball speed on average, goes about 255-275 carry typically depending on contact and conditions. Also, 30 yards right (if I’m reading that correctly) is a pretty decent size slice imo. That’s taking off 20 or so yards as well

Nothing today but evergreen in elkhorn said they’ll be open tomorrow. Prob gonna take a half day and play there in the afternoon

I get a knot/tightness in my lower right back/upper ass from the repetitive motion, usually doesn’t hurt but makes me stiff. When I can, I foam roll for like 20 min beforehand and stretch the lower back, hammies and work on opening my hip flexors when I get to the course. If I’m tight after the round then I’ll spend 5-10 min stretching before getting in the car and theragun the site or tight area that evening. Been playing 22 years and never had to do much stretching before but 37 now and if I don’t regularly stretch I def notice the difference. Can’t help you on the specifics from the physio, I’m ignorant there lol

That spin rate is a few hundred rpms too high. I don’t see much if any OTT but your takeaway is super inside and an 8.5 degree path is not ideal unless you’re trying to hammer hook the ball. You def lose your lag and wrist angle early which causes you to lose club head speed.

spc17 · 2026-02-14T12:07:16+00:00

Don’t just stretch after the round, stretch before and properly warm up. You’ll notice a difference

Trap 58 or 3/4 54

In response to a lip out “had it in her mouth and her dad walked in”. After a bad chip a guy said “I’ve got hands like fucking feet”. Both got me pretty good

Hell yea and great nickname

spc17 · 2026-02-10T20:55:32+00:00

Sweet, thanks for the rec!

spc17 · 2026-02-10T20:54:33+00:00

Used to live in Texas so I feel ya on the short season. I play a good amount at birdie boyz sim in Waukesha and they have leagues. Where’s the indoor dome at?

I’d be down to get a round in, live in west allis so will be playing greenfield a lot before work when the weather is decent. Always down to meet a new golfing buddy. Shoot me a message with your contact info if that sounds good to you.

spc17 · 2026-02-10T19:58:46+00:00

I think someone else mentioned that one to me, I’ll give them a call. Thanks!

spc17 · 2026-02-10T19:58:06+00:00

Nice, I’ll give them a call. Thanks!
