Bought a new golf club yesterday..
It's pretty amazing. Buying the 5 wood next week-end when I go back.

time to make history rory
People talking like Woods will retire in 1 month and he will never win another major...assholes jumping on the bandwagon and over-reacting, annoying to listen to their BS every day now.
I know fucking karate
i dont pay attention to that shit
woot. playing today in 91 deg heat this is gonna suck....
Gonna play this weekend, I really wish I played more often. I am hopeless with a wood though, fantastic with the iron and ok with the putters I guess.
I used to suck with woods, not so much anymore. Swing it like a driver, place the ball more towards the middle of your stance if on the fairway (most people get that part wrong, and place it too far in front), and most importantly don't go too hard at it, when people are hitting woods off the turf they get scared and try and give it a whack, your looking for a crisp contact on the back of the ball with no turf involved.Adams_BJ wrote:

Off i go! Wish me luck..
You guys suck at luck wishing, I did horrible
I got my 8 year old son a junior set of clubs for his birthday, now I just gotta find the time to take him to a driving range so he can practice swinging the clubs.
I wish I had a chance to play with my dad
I never played golf with my dad either, but we did bowl together. My son is restricted from most sports due to a heart defect, so I figured this was safe for him, good for me, and it would get us both out of the house when mom and his 3 sisters get their visits from aunt flo.
the nice thing about golf Canin, is it can be played at your own pace
me neither . . .Adams_BJ wrote:

Yep, so long as you dont have a bunch of drunk people behind you. Seriously though, I hope he picks it up pretty well and can use it to make a living or at least earn some help for college when he is old enough.13urnzz wrote:

Hope your son doesn't get too frustrated. I don't think I've played a single hole this year that hasn't resulted in a slew of four letter words

I might ask for some advice here. I seem to slice it. And I mean a real slice it almost ends up 90 degrees to the right after I tee off. Im sure my club face is square on contact, I think im holding the club correctly. Could it be Im standing too far forward on the ball? I heard it should be pretty close to in line with your front foot than in the middle?
Do you shoot left or right handed?
I golf right handed.
The last lesson I took, the pro told me to roll my left hand to the right so it's more on top of the grip and to step back a bit from the ball.
My slice ends up about 4 fairways right of where it should be

I think I my left hand may be a little too far anticlockwise on the handle if anything, so I should probably do that. And I do probably need to move the ball up a little more towards my front foot. I hope to get out again in a couple weeks.
Dunno if anyone has looked at or seen this site, but I found it helpful so I thought I would share. http://www.videojug.com/tag/golf
Are we talking irons or driver here?Adams_BJ wrote:

Both, but most notably the driver. I do better more often with the irons.justice wrote:
