Why "Light EA"? I thought you solved that problem with EA that was affecting your Driving Distance?

Man, you're going to "fold like a cheap suit". Try to keep up.

Let's not be harsh, 'D. I' had an interesting day on Saturday.
 

The greens were still very schizo bumpy/fast/burnt so I had 28 putts and even our club champ (+2 hcp. ) simply threw up his hands after 5 holes and muttered to himself as he shot an 81. Good news is that it rained all afternoon, today.

So we kept modified cards yesterday (but reported all strokes, even the ones that hit aeration holes and bent at right angles :crybaby: ), and our rule was 10 strides of the pin = auto 2 putt.

On the front 9 swinging, I couldn't find the bottom of the swing though I kept my motion very efficient. What I learned is that my leg imbalance offers no stable platform unless I adopt (my version of ) Moe Norman's very wide base which simply stops all sway due to locking out almost every moving part. Driving gets difficult. I shot a "44" on the front. I was very frustrated. :(

Yoda and Ted had both pointed out the level left wrist to me which I was not going to give up .:angry2: I noticed that all the TSP Hitters seem to drive their right arm pretty early, almost straight down after their initial forward shift. I said to myself "Self...LBG golf does not lie to people; these guys are good for a reason;let's emulate them and JerryG awhile and "hit and holler....!"

Then, I shot a 37 on a par 35 leaving ball marks that obliterated aeration holes! Can you say "dart throwing?" Besides 5 birdie chances within 30 feet (made 1)(non-modified, we don't give birdies ever), I missed only three greens on that 9.

What did I learn?

If I set up with my left heel down (getting rid of left leg right leg wobble), MBH, RFT, light EA and Angle Hinge, and drive my right arm to my brush point, I can hit everything from 60 deree to 4 irons and 3 wood flush. My driver need a slight B Button turn before I rip the snot out of it and I can adjust for draw and fade.

Daryl, don't confuse a supple, experimental disposition with a lack of grit! Or rather, go ahead! :rambo:

You boasted about giving me 12 stroke's at Lynn's place. You've lost that bet, already. But, don't fear. Unless you are going to the Master's and Lynn closes his place from April 18th to the 22nd, I'll be waiting for you. You might win by a few strokes, if you shoot a 65!

If I shoot 75 or better on a course I've never played from the tips, I reserve the right to gloat! It's still be a loss, but considering my single digit hcp. status after one year with LBG I'll be darned happy!

YBGF!

I wish I could say I'm impressed, but my Driving Range is more difficult than the Golf Courses you hack on. :)

I would like to know what you're doing to solve the Driver Problem with Heavy EA.

Congratulations Patrick! You have wholeheartedly invested yourself in improving your golf through TGM and LBG over the past months and you are succeeding and achieving. I am exceedingly happy for you.
Can't wait to get back on a golf course with you.

I lightened up on the EA!
 

I'm using my elbow a lot more to raise the left arm and I swivel the left forearm as I do so.

Speaking of courses I hack on, I must say that the quality of Minnesota's golf course was terrific as was the hospitality of my hosts (JerryG/KevCarter) and the golfing fellowship of LBG contributors Dodger and Bartleby. If I lived in IL, I would golf in MN often and take lessons from Kevin Carter if I couldn't get to Alabama!

They are nice people, Daryl, and they would be nice to you, too! Even you!!! :laughing9 :golf:

Yes. Don't cock the right wrist.

What's this fixation with Alabama? Who's in Alabama?

Isn't that the world-wide HQ of LBG?
 

Oops!

So Daryl, what tags do you use to get a whole picture in these posts? Hmmmm? You know you are quite good at it!

What are Tags?

I think it was more like we were learning together rather than me teaching. We BOTH need to get to Cuscowillo. To be honest, not just YODA, but many others here show me how far I have to go. ALWAYS pay attention when guys like Daryl and O.B. speak. We can both learn a TON from these guys.

Your chubby buddy from Anoka

Hi Kevin,

I'm embarrassed when Innercityteacher drags you into our "poking fun at and harassing each other". He's such a crybaby. I'm positive that the Courses in Minnesota are great. But Innercityteacher plays on a 105 sloped course in Pennsylvania and thinks an 85 is an ass-whoop-in great score. Man, give a guy a little Lag Pressure and a Flat Left Wrist and he thinks he's ready for the Hooters-Tour.
