$700? This looks like my TS2 that I got for $100 on ebay.

My weather channel app predicted "gale force winds" before I went golfing today. I now know what that means. 40+ mph wind gusts, bent flags, branches flying off trees and the wind blowing your ball around all over the green when you putt. It was bonkers. I played with three old dudes with handicaps between 0 and 10 and they all said this was the worst wind they've played in. I don't think anyone kept score.

1. Drink 2. Talk s*** 3. Make excuses 4. Try to hit ball

It didn't work for the two bags I wanted!

I watched “golf my way” by Jack Nicklaus. He recommends one ball position off his front heel for all shots. I tried swinging like that today with my irons but I couldn’t get the ball airborne. It seems much easier to put the ball close to the middle of my stance for irons because I can start with my hands way in front of the clubhead. Are you the same way?

I’m curious about those putters because they look cool.

Pre-golf preparation: 10 minutes of dynamic stretching; hit a large bucket of balls; finish my first beer.

One-length irons and wedges would likely help me considerably.

Alcohol Edit: and nicotine.

Howdy, I played golf for the first time in June of last year. Up until this month, my average drive was about 170-210 yards. I found out recently that I can hinge my wrists at the top of the back swing to add about 45 degrees of arc to generate more club head speed. Since I've hinged at the top of the swing, my drives are now in a range of 240-270 at the range and I've even hit the net on some drives. Is this some magic thing I've been missing? My friends don't seem to think its all that important but it is the only variable I've changed and now I'm hitting off the blue tees.
