G/Fore Gallivanter Embossed Skull Shoes
NC Golfer replied to biggerwoody6's topic in Fashion & Style
Very nice! My podiatrist said the Gfores are good for the feet because they have a stiffer sole. Enjoy!- 10 replies

Just purchased the Skechers Go Golf Arch fit in white. Seems comfortable out of the box at $110.00. There's a gppd amount of rubber by the toes. I am hoping it provides support and protection for a former broken toe with arthritis.

Most people like the Soft Feel. Great price, distance and feel. Also, a nice yellow color. It checks off a lot of boxes and especially good for the Sr golfer.

I am wondering about the same thing. I went from a heavier regular iron shaft to a lighter senior shaft. My shots are very inconsistent making me wonder of this was a big mistake or if it will take more time. One thing I realized, the standard length shaft I demo'd is different than the +1/2 inch shaft I bought - adding even more flex.

Stress Free Golf Swing
NC Golfer replied to Bentleyvp's topic in Lessons, Drills, Mental Game, and Fitness Tips
Great, tell us more about the stress free swing, sr golfer here. Pulled up the link and don't see anything related. -
How often do you purchase new wedges/do they really change year/year?
NC Golfer replied to Jon Diamond's topic in Shiny Metal
I play them for years. Also, I have a MD CB 56 degree and think I made a mistake not getting the CBX2. The MD CB's are ok for chipping. But, lack feel for any kind of full swing. -
Wilson/Staff Launch Pad 2 Irons - Will they be an improvement?
NC Golfer replied to russtopherb's topic in Shiny Metal
You don't hear much about Tour Edge C and E series irons. Somehow, higher handicap irons don't get much press. -
Wilson/Staff Launch Pad 2 Irons - Will they be an improvement?
NC Golfer replied to russtopherb's topic in Shiny Metal
Don't overlook the HB Turbos. I like them as good as the halos, maybe better. There's probably some new and old sets out there at a good price. -
I am guilty of not getting a result in a few swings or a few rounds and on to the next tip. I might be wrong. But, isn't the golf swing mostly, a full coil, back to the target, body driven turn and a swing from the ground up on the follow through? I know it should work. But, never give it time. I think one reason is if you play 8 months out of the year and maybe 1-2 times per month, you don't want the season spent on something that should work and playing even worse than our band aid swing.

Not looking to pay 50 or 56 a dozen for the new AVX. But, I am seeking a low launch ball off the longer and mid irons. Does e6 fit this bill? Any others?

Difficulty completing my backswing
NC Golfer replied to NC Golfer's topic in Lessons, Drills, Mental Game, and Fitness Tips
ok, 3 visits into the TPI medical golf PT. Lots of progress on the frozen shoulder (stretching and manipulation) and making progress on rotation for the mid-upper back. Have been given the following exercises open book (for rotation in upper-mid back), thoracic extension for the lower traps (using foam roller) and more. Today I was given a really cool one. Get on all fours, put the foam roller parallel (towards arms) to left side, slide right hand/arm palm up and roll through, giving an awesome stretch and rotation - good for the golf turn! Do the same on the opposite side. Next up, seeing the TPI golf trainer! It's seems really expensive when considering it. But, the knowledge you gain is priceless. -
How do you know if you are hitting the ball too high?
NC Golfer replied to dlow206's topic in Shiny Metal
Thanks, Greg. I have not been on a monitor. But, upgraded from HB3 irons to XL Halo with a senior shaft and I am losing distance and the flight is noticibly higher. Although, it is in the same family of club, the HL Halo's are much lighter with more flex. I am hitting it straighter. Does that mean, less spin? Thanks, for the suggestions on balls too.
