re: Pre Swing Thoughts

Posted by ViceGolfer on 6/1/23 at 1:29 pm
All pre-shot thoughts about lie, wind, club selection, shot shape, etc are controlled by the left brain. Actual physical movement is controlled by the right brain. If you are trying to execute a shot while thinking a bunch of thoughts you are in deep trouble. The left brain activity will lock up y...

I have a set up from Ernest Sports. US made and veteran owned. Customer service is absolutely off the charts and I just plain like all their equipment. I think it is the best value for the money. Unlimited funds of course there are other ways to go but you can't beat Ernest for the value. Check...

Which is your dominant eye? If you don't know look up on line real quick and learn how to know which of your eyes is dominant. 70% are right eye dominant and those are typically right handed golfers. There is an advantage to putt right handed if you are left eye dominant and left handed if you ar...

In my opinion grip fitting is the most neglected part of the fitting process but it's one of the most important as it's the only thing that your hands actually touch. Most gloves sizes sold in stores are XXL, XL, large and medium large but most people use a standard grip which is way to small. I w...
Wait a few weeks and go back to the course where you lost it or give them a call then. Sometimes people pick it up and throw it in their bag and then forget they have it. Next time they play they see it and bring it back to the course. I have worked at six courses and this happens sometimes. A...

Actually, Rick said the Demo Day was not what it used to be and he could see the Demo Day going away because everyone in the convention center has simulators. I disagree with that however as the Demo Day is open to the public and it was jammed in the afternoon after he left. The show itself was a...

There were quite a few shaft companies. There are so many and it's hard to separate the quality. In shafts I typically like the more tried and true companies that have been at it a long time. Your fitter should know which one to recommend and which one fits best for your optimum ball flight. Gre...

Hey Coach. The show did have quite a few DTC companies but as you would suspect I would guess 80% were companies that were more b2b. As for as LIV v PGA, I heard almost zero conversation about LIV, which is predictable since this is a PGA Show. New buzz words? Can't really say as anything stood ou...

Hey bopper50. I'm back from the PGA Show with that report I promised. First of all, what an event! Coaching/Teaching Summit, 800 vendors, more foreign languages than you could imagine. Truly a world wide event. Saw a bunch of celebs. Annika, Lexi Thompson, Blair O'Neal, Brad Faxon and others. ...

re: Cutting driver shaft

Posted by ViceGolfer on 1/21/23 at 5:21 pm
Remember that anytime you cut a shaft you make it a little stiffer and the swing weight gets a little lighter. But shorter typically means better contact. I recommend keeping it like it is and then just grip down an inch for a few rounds and see if anything changes. Also, swing with the same tempo a...
