  1. I’ve been playing the Oncore Elixir Ball for a couple years now. Being originally from Buffalo where the company is based out of, it was a little bit of the “buy local” mentality. However, after the reviews and numbers came out confirming its good performance compared to main brands I decided to stick with it. The company has since come out with a few new models meant for a little faster swing speed and I look forward to trying those out once my current reserve runs out.
  2. Played a nice Executive course today with my Grandparents as their first time out for the year. Just nine holes but it was very relaxed we played rather quickly for a 3-some. I played well at +4 with only 3 “bad” shots. Two of which can be attributed to me not paying attention. All in all I would say I had a good round and ball striking with the new swing changes is really starting the click! Hope Everyone is getting out and Staying Safe! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  3. I used to work a Cazenovia Park Golf Course for 5 years during college, I’m sure we’ve crossed paths before. Good to see more Buffalo guys on here. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  4. I did my certification through the NASM golf fitness program just because I was also taking my Certified Personal Trainer certification through them as well, but from what I’ve seen of the two programs they are extremely similar with a lot of the differences being in the wording and references they use.

  5. I agree. I’m a strength coach by trade and do private sessions focusing on golf fitness. Often times if you can get your glutes and hip flexors to loosen up, the pain will subside. The next thing I would look at is your mid back (thoracic spine). These two things when tight or out of alignment can cause severe back pain. Feel free to PM me if you have more questions Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  6. Delaware is just too far for me but I would love to get to get her with some guys and play. It’s tough to have a consistent group with my schedule Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  7. Shot the first 18 hole score for the year today with 83. Picking up right where I left off last year and making that handicap drop. Also had a combination of two 9’s score of 81. This year should be good!! Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  8. I been playing golf consistently for about 4 years after my grandfather first taught me how to play when I was little. My current handicap is 14 and I would love to see that drop to 10 by the end of this year. I love the challenge it presents with the balance of precision and power but also the camaraderie between fellow golfers I originally can to MGS to gain a greater understanding behind the game and maybe catch a few tips to help lower my scores and further enjoy the game. Sadly I don’t really know any other Spies. I’m from Buffalo NY, and play many different places. Usually between Attica CC and Cazenovia Park GC for my home courses. My trade is strength and conditioning, mainly for athletes but I also work with kids and adults. I recently finished a certification in Golf Fitness that I’m start to apply in my own workouts and seeing some great results. My username is nothing fancy, just my name and some numbers but it’s always been the same. P.S. I would love to meet some of you and play a couple rounds if at all possible. Love playing new courses with good people. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  9. Yesterday was 50 and calm in western New York. It also marked the first day this year I got out on the local municipal course and hit off of real grass. Only got to play 5 holes but it was enough to get a sense of real golf after hitting off of Turf indoors all winter. Hopefully the full season is just around the corner!

  10. Recently got my handicap down to 14 from 24 and my current irons (Wilson Di-11) don’t really suit my game anymore. I’ve been thinking about ordering a set of Ben Hogan PTx irons with similar loft numbers to the Wilson in order to maintain most of the distance but gain a lot more feel and workability. Please send your thoughts Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
  11. Played yesterday for the first time at a new track in the area and it started out really rough. As the round went on things started to come together. On 17, par 3 190yrds into wind I hit a beautiful pure 4 iron with a tiny draw to about 10 feet. It wasn't super close but it was exactly the shot I wanted to hit and it gave me a lot of confidence for the rounds to come. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy
