+Nick W Sounds like you're touching on the major pieces for improvement. Way to turn being stuck at home into a golf focussed mini-camp :)

I do a version of this before every activity. I commonly do pieces of it throughout the day to…

Re: Mental Question - How Does One "Bounce Back" (?)

+Ed C I'm also of the stance that birdies happen better when you don't try to force them. Just hit good shots that are close enough to give you opportunities and make the best putt you can. Your trend of birdies after a string of bogies can also sig…

Re: Help would be greatly appreciated! Slices galore inside.

+Fred S Glad to hear it's helped quickly. Yes, that right path with the impact bag has been an eye-opener for many slicers. Combines the two key needs into one simple impact feel!
It also makes sense that you would quickly pick up distance. Even if …

Updated: here's a link to a video review I did of the board https://golfsmartacademy.com/golf-instruction/review-downunder-board/

+Mark C I have not seen it personally, but I just checked out the website and watched the overview video. It appears t…

Re: Shot shape with driver

  By: Tyler F on March 13, 2020, 9:24 a.m.

+Rasmus W Your assumptions are correct. Some golfers use that pattern to play a fade. Others aim their stance a little more closed and play a draw with a closed face. In either case, the ball forward can help with the launch, but in doing so, you ha…

As far as the 1.5-hour warm-up. In general, I think that's a good idea to check all your boxes and make …
