How do you swing well when muscles are tired?

  By: Mark L on Oct. 24, 2024, 5:18 p.m.

This past Tuesday, I had a driver fitting at the PGA store. I hit the ball really well keeping most of the shots in play - even with the test drivers that I'd never touch before. (The new Titleist GT2 won.) Today, two days later, I when to Edwin Wat…

Re: Swing ID Wrist Measurements

  By: Mark L on Sept. 10, 2024, 8:35 p.m.

Finally got to the range and here is a pic of the Golfshot stats of one of my good drives. The ball flew straight and high but all of my Swing ID positions were not in range - just like all of my well hit drives. Not sure I find this tool useful aft…

Swing ID Wrist Measurements

  By: Mark L on Aug. 19, 2024, 8:14 p.m.

I’ve started using Golfshot’s Swing ID with my Apple Watch. I’m wondering if anyone knows how I might improve my wrist rotation and wrist close rate numbers (see pics)?

Help: I need to improve or quit.

So, 20 years ago I was ~10 handicap (I still have my old card). Today I’m ~18. I took a long time off of golf and started up again 2 years ago. I know more about the golf swing today but I can’t seem to improve.

When on the range practicing or war…

Swinging horribly on the course

  By: Mark L on June 28, 2023, 8:49 p.m.

I’ve been working on my swing at home in my net and sometimes on the range. (Recently added a Prosendr to my toolbox and it’s working very well.) The last few times I’ve played my ball striking during the range warmup have gone very well. I had grea…

So, I went back and tried the original drill again and I got it. I mean - I'm able to do it but I need a lot of work because I really want to use my arms more. My issue is being able to insert the drill movement into my swing. I will work on the dri…

I don’t have a video of me doing the drill, but I can probably put one together.

I also forgot to add that after doing the drill a few times it was hard for me to connect it with my swing.

Tyler, I appreciate your insights. Do you have maybe another drill where I’m not second guessing each position I’m trying to get into to perform it?

Also, I’m having trouble getting my shoulders square with the driver. I seem to always veer toward…

New(ish) Member Swing Video

  By: Mark L on Feb. 13, 2023, 3:44 p.m.

I’ve been a member for about nine months and this is my first swing video upload.

Some background: Years ago I was a 10-11 handicap. I am now an 18 and I’ve been trying to rebuild my swing the last two years.

I’ll be 52 next week. I’m a longtime …

Re: Wipe with ulnar deviation

Tyler,

Thank you, that video is what I was looking for - it answers my questions.

I will post my swing on video soon.

Note: I wasn't asking because I was working on both. I am curious about both so as I watch your videos, I sometimes look for …

Wipe with ulnar deviation

  By: Mark L on June 6, 2022, 8:21 p.m.

I’ve watched videos on the swing of both ulnar deviation and the wipe. However, I’m not clear on how they work together. For example, while watching a drill to practice ulnar deviation, I don’t clearly see a wipe in the swing and vice versa.

How d…
