Yes. My favorite site is The Golf Sensei. The videos have many great nuggets of information to help your swing. The video covers swing tools, all facets of the game and information for all ages.

Golf bags- stand or cart, and why?
Richard Fahrney replied to Rob Person's topic in Golf Bags & Carts
I use a cart bag for the main reason I have an MGI Zip Navigator. The heaviness of the bag stabilizes the cart. I tried lighter bags but this works. -

Watching videos of the CES show my mind started thinking about how to apply AI and new products using AI. Club makers like TM are using AI in the new 2024 releases as most of the top producers. My opinion, the rangefinders could merge into the new smart glasses that have cameras imbedded in them. The future could. be you are wearing your smart glasses, use your GPS app, look at the pin, get your distance and get ready. Taking in all the data from past golf shots from the range or rounds it then makes a club selection. Let your mind think of the possibilities. Now let’s look at improving your swing. You can go to your local pro, send a video of your swing to a pro or try to do it yourself. Attach your smartphone to your cart or electric trolly and shoot your swing on the course. Let the data be collected and analyzed from all the pros in the cloud like a Trackman does with instant feedback. Have AI match your swing to Hogan, Tiger or anyone and overlay to yours. You then understand how to swing like them. If you think this will be expensive, a new hardware devise called the Rabbit, has all the functions of your smartphone. It uses all your apps to answer your questions, has a camera and a mic. $199. With cameras improving, you can ask your devise using LLM and create questions for what club to use, what stance adjustments and have a teaching pro giving you suggestions like the YouTube videos do. I think Apple or Google will buy this company. Your thoughts.

How long do you keep a pair of golf shoes?
Richard Fahrney replied to JP Balajadia's topic in Breaking News and Debate
I walk my course and my Apple Watch says it’s 6.7 miles each round. I have logged my 100th round so far this year and will probably get to 125 EOY. What I have learned is do not by on price and use the MGS evaluation of golf shoes for quality. Wait for them to go on sale at year end and buy 2 pairs. Thank you MGS for doing the hard work for me. -

My golf tips come from watching YouTube videos. About 6 months ago Danny Maude had a chipping lesson given by Pete Cowens. I had never heard of Pete and learned that he is the coach to most of the European players. Now the worlds best go to him for help including Brooks, Rory and Hedeki. Since watching his chipping and bunker videos have have gone from an 18 to a 13. JT, give him a call.

MyGolfSpy 2023 Golf Ball Test!!!
Richard Fahrney replied to GolfSpy SAM's topic in Golf Balls/Shafts/Grips
For us seniors we like the slow swing speed balls you have reviewed in the past. Please use the 2017-2021 format you created showing the side by side comparisons. Spin, distance, compression and by swing speed. -
I’m 73. Never too late to start. I don’t shame people who ride carts. I just see us getting fatter and sicker. Do it for your health.
