GrGmEvPl18!

I don’t like wearing a watch when I play but love to have that technology available. Bought a Bushnell Phantom Golf GPS and really love it! Has a great app for the phone and so far every course I have played has been on it. Main display shows front middle and back distances of the green and it will also display fairway and greenside bunker distances as well. If you don’t want to wear a watch it is a great alternative. I’d get one of the bright colors if you intend to use the magnet on the back to attach it to a golf cart. That way it would less easy to lose. That would be my only real negative of the device. Would hate to accidentally leave it somewhere. Other nice thing is there are no additional annual fees. Buy it once and forget it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have read the book as well. While I don’t have the time right now to provide a lengthy review I will say one of the tips I found most valuable was practicing hitting full shots with the ball in widely varying positions within your stance from in front of your lead leg to behind your trail leg (and everyplace in between) I have added this to my range sessions by hitting 10-20 balls in this manner just trying to put center face contact on the ball. It does wonders for your confidence and your ability to get the club on the ball correctly from different positions. You can also do the same thing from different lies and slopes. As we all know when you are playing golf on the course it is rarely a flat lie like the range. Ultimately the task remains the same of controlling the clubface to make good contact and direct the ball toward the target. I have found that this has helped me a bunch- give it a try.

Thanks. I feel like a beginning golfer. Not sure what I’m doing. Been struggling with the app not allowing replies. Have you had that issue? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

1. How long have you been playing golf? What is your handicap/typical score? Started playing golf seriously after college. Played just a little bit in college but was involved in other sports and played racquetball competitively in college and after which took up most of my free time. Long story short been playing in some capacity for 25 plus years as I am now 47 years old. My handicap ranges from 1-3 depending on the time of year. Tend to start slow with all the time off and improve as the year goes on. Typically scoring average is 74-75. Lowest score is 65 twice at my home course. 2. What do you love about golf? All of it. Love being outdoors with my friends and family. I love the challenge of trying to improve and compete. Hard to beat hitting a well struck shot! 3. What brings you to MyGolfSpy? Know any other Spies? I tend to over think all of my purchases. Especially golf equipment. So many options today makes it difficult to narrow things down. I am inherently skeptical when it comes to marketing claims thus when researching things on the web I ran into this site and have used the unbiased information for several years. I don't know any other Spies. Interested in trying out this forum thing with active participation- usually just a reader of the posts. 4. Where are you from/Home course? From Mason City, IA. Play the Mason City Country Club primarily. Make an effort to play and compete around the state when I am able to. Try to play lots of different courses. 5. Best/Worst things about golf in my area? Best- Golf is relatively inexpensive in my area which is a plus. Summers are great and there are some terrific courses throughout the state. Worst- short seasons and weather during the season can be rough 6. What do you do for a living? Orthopedic Medical Device Sales 7. How did you pick your user name? This group should be able to figure out what it stands for- It is why we are on this site.
