AndySP Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Well, bad for my wallet anyway. I hit a piece of plywood on the ground, like a dunce, after I finished my workout and kept practicing my bad technique. So, maybe actually it was the technique practice that is costing me… Pro shop said they couldn’t fix it, so I already ordered a replacement, because even though I haven’t been getting the fast gains others have seen, it’s clear the system is a step above the others I’ve done. My Grit score is going to suffer too. Am I the only one? cksurfdude 1 Quote g430 lst TS2 20* hybrid, New Level PF-2: P-7; 902: 6-5 hi-toe 51* and 57* M Craft IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADFanBoi Scotty Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 There's karma for you! Ended up skinning the carpet at the gym with my Rypstick and pulling up a heap of thread. cksurfdude 1 Quote LTDx LS 9*D, HZRDUS Green HC 60g 6.0, 45" 4g + 12g weight King LTD @ 14.5* HZRDUS Blue 70g 6.0, 42.5" King LTD @ 17.5*, HZRDUS Blue 70g 6.0, 40.5"/ 2022 Utility Iron 2 @ 17*, Ventus Black 10x, 39.25" 2022 Utility Iron 4 OL @ 20* Fujikura Pro Iron 115TX 36" EQ1-NX OL 5i-PW Fujikura Pro Iron 115TX 36" Cobra SBOL 48*, 52*, 56* Fujikura Pro Iron 115TX 36" C-Series DW Armlock Vice Pro Plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySP Posted May 13, 2022 Author Share Posted May 13, 2022 Karma always gonna get you, haha. The shaft broke on mine, though it’s tough to see from the picture. I think it’s metal underneath the yellow cap, though the part that is glued to the shaft feels plastic. In my old apartment I also hit the wood ground with a superspeed stick and had to fill it in. Clearly I’m proving how good I am… cksurfdude 1 Quote g430 lst TS2 20* hybrid, New Level PF-2: P-7; 902: 6-5 hi-toe 51* and 57* M Craft IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cksurfdude Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Cannot speak to your speed training system - there are other threads already discussing those - but as to the title "Speed without technique is bad" I am completely in agreement! I've been taking a series of lessons, and doing the drills the instructor suggests and practicing and .. over time .. I can clearly see my swing technique improving with the result that for any given club I'm picking up distance (and, generally but not always , narrowing my dispersion!). IMHO and what seems to be working for me is that you need a solid foundation first to build up on. Vegan_Golfer_PNW, sirchunksalot and Hobert 3 Quote WITB of an "aspiring" play-ah ...
