MGS Off-Season Speed Challenge
GolfSpy MPR replied to ejgaudette's topic in Lessons, Drills, Mental Game, and Fitness Tips
Kirke and I just wrapped up our second week of Stacking. We both had to move a lot of snow today, so that might have not been the best for today's speed work. I didn't set any new high speeds with the "standard" Stack today, but I didn't lose ground either: So far, I'm definitely seeing more improvement than Kirke. I don't find this shocking, for a couple of reasons. He's got more skill than I do, so he feels more comfortable swinging all out as his normal swing. Part of speed training for most people (and definitely me) is just getting comfortable swinging that hard. Second, because he's a little guy, he needs to swing as hard as he can normally. So the fact that he's not made gains in the low-hanging fruit means (I suspect) that he was already pretty near his physical max speed. -

MGS Off-Season Speed Challenge
GolfSpy MPR replied to ejgaudette's topic in Lessons, Drills, Mental Game, and Fitness Tips
Through two sessions, I'm gaining more than Kirke in our work with The Stack. I'm posting this because I never beat Kirke in golf stuff. The reality: two sessions is likely more noise than signal, and if I'm "gaining" more than him now, it's because he was more efficient to begin with. -
MGS Off-Season Speed Challenge
GolfSpy MPR replied to ejgaudette's topic in Lessons, Drills, Mental Game, and Fitness Tips
I think this is true for the vast majority of amateur golfers (including me). I don't discount the importance of strength and fitness (and it's something I'm working on quite a bit). But I think most of the benefit from swing speed training isn't the stick, the weights, or the specific protocols: it's the feedback from the radar. Gradually learning what is fast is so critical to getting faster. -

100°F and snow would be some wild weather.

Oof. We got one big snowfall (about a foot) a few weeks ago, and then the snow has been quiet since. But it's coming back at the end of this week.

The Stack System Review and Progress Thread
GolfSpy MPR replied to dlow206's topic in Member Reviews
I'm trying to work out the criteria to evaluate the winner. Simple mph gain would likely favor me. If we do percentage gain, that is probably fairer. Kirke has a significant potential advantage: only one of the two of us has the possibility of growing taller this winter I shot a DM to Sasho MacKenzie on Twitter, asking him for his way of measuring. Literally as I was composing this post, he replied with a formula for calculating "speed training score." -
The Stack System Review and Progress Thread
GolfSpy MPR replied to dlow206's topic in Member Reviews
Quick question: is there a reason you wouldn't use the Mevo+ for this? Kirke and I just got our Stacks today. We're going to have a bit of contest to see which of us can gain the most speed this winter. -
Grabbed a quick video here at the church office with my MidLock and another putter: 20221031_105953.mp4 For me, my setup and stroke are very similar with both putters. I putt with my left hand one knuckle below my right. Ball position is quite forward with both. So for me, when I got the MidLock, it was a pretty seamless adjustment. Still not sure if the MidLock will end up replacing my Edel as my main putter, but it's useful for me as a training aid regardless, because it's the stroke I want to use with any putter I'm using.
