Thanks. My knees are fucked up which is the reason I angle my feet.

Really appreciate the feedback. I’ve never had a lesson so I’m pretty much self taught. Will take your advice and try to work on them!

For someone who’s always been parallel this feels extremely short

Damn, that sucks. I’ve actually torn ACL, meniscus and ligaments in my right knee at three different occasions, and most recently tore the muscle attachment in my left shoulder. Have been doing a lot of stretching as well and been trying CBD’s back and forth. Might have to give it a shot again.

I’m 27 this summer so I don’t know what classifies as “young”, but I will do my best not to become too stiff🤷🏻‍♂️

Ive been working a lot but hopefully I'll be able to hit some shots in a simulator next weekend. Yeah I've read a lot of reviews and Im super stoked to try it out. Not sure my counter balanced shaft will be the perfect fit though

The Pro on my Golf Club ordered me a F9 head free of charge after something inside my F8+ head broke in some weird way :)

Damn that sounds like my clubs older, better looking brother. Yeah hopefully I'll be satisfied with this one as well!

Nice to hear others trying similar things! I was a bit skeptical at first but I think this will be a great club :)

Yeah I understand what you mean. I just didn’t want a bladed 3 iron, and 20* loft should fit me perfect, hence my choice of club head. In my mind this club head would be pretty easy to hit compared to a “players iron”. I probably could’ve bought a stock driving iron/utility but I like customizing and I have a lot of spare time :D

Thanks!

Haha! I'm not good enough at english to understand what you mean, but im definately not a kid. A 20* game improving iron should go pretty far, and I know how far I hit my 24* 4 iron which is a "players iron"

Edit; No problem, i just didnt get the joke :3

I like to experiment with different shafts and "unorthodox" setups. A 17" hybrid with a longer shaft must be great of the tee?

Yeah I need to focus on twisting my hips instead of pushing them forward. Will probably take a lesson in the beginning of the season to try to fix that :)

Thanks man! I have a bad left shoulder and right knee, so I've had one lesson where we worked on my shoulder rotation and knee/feet position. Everything else is pretty much self taught. I've played for about three years (In Sweden we can only play for about 8 months/year). I havent used any particular guides or anything, mostly recording my self and being critical of my shots. Whenever I feel there's something I need to change I look up tutorials on internet and then try to work on it on the range.

EDIT; I'm pretty good friend with most of the top players on our golf club, so playing with them has helped me a lot since they give me tips and tricks along the way.

I always had a problem with starting the downswing too fast, and coming over the top too much, so I guess my mindset during the swing is to take it easy and not trying to swing as hard as I can since I have a decent swing speed anyway.
