Congrats Testers!

Congrats to all and Happy Testing!

Congrats to All! Can't wait to see how these fairways perform!

I'm all about understanding the concept of a technique to better understand the success behind it. Everyone's swings are different but the concept of a good strike on a ball is universal. Face hits ball, ball flies! How you deliver it, well that's on you. How you get from A to B depends on how you play, but sometimes understanding what the end looks like and working backwards for your own tendencies and understanding what they are trying to show, is so much better than "learn this technique to stop slicing". Sure, you catch a nugget every now and then (towel drill comes to mind for that back elbow staying tight) but again, it's a concept and reinforcement. I'll watch a few YouTuber's, but not for the instructional content usually. I prefer the course vlogs. Watching the mental approach and how some of these golfers get around the course, that's half the game. None of them are perfect golfers. They make mistakes (I know, editing is editing) and show how they recover from those mistakes. Matt Fryer has put out a few videos of just mental approach before shots, where should the focus be, etc. He's also done a few conceptual basic (ball in front of stance, chips go higher vs ball in back of stance, chips stay lower and run out) things that if you actually think about it from a logical standpoint, it makes sense. Sometimes, all we need is someone to say it for that little light bulb to turn on!

Hey All, Long time reader, first time writer. Love the site and all the data that's gathered. How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? I've been playing golf about 25 years now. I usually shoot Mid 80's to low 90's consistently What do you love about golf? I love the challenge and the humility it brings. The lesson's it can bring to my kids as they learn to play are the same I learned: focus and hard work pay off, you'll get out exactly what you put in. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Do you already know any other Spies? Was always coming onto the forums and tests results pages (love the Ball Lab info) and I thought I should get more into the site. I love analyzing data and the test results are fun to read when I'm looking at my data I've collected from my game. Where are you from? What is your home course? Far West Suburbs of Illinois. Fox Bend Golf Course What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? Best thing with all the new simulators and indoor golf places, there's about 3-4 locations within a few miles to go and play year round. Worst thing, courses flood pretty easy. What do you do for a living? IT Data Analytics How’d you pick your user name? College nickname from a long time ago.
