OT: Golf club fitting

[aburks41]

Had 3 weeks of practice where I got my timing down and narrowed down to 3 swing cues.

Missing one fairway immensely helped. And got a birdie on a par 3 after coming about 1.5 feet away from a hole in one.

I have my first real lesson next Friday (Never had one outside of when I was 5 years old 20 years ago). My swing isn't bad but I might just tell the guy I want to blow it up and start from scratch. I have 20 years of bad habits that I need to get rid of

After a 15 month layoff, I got to play 9 holes as a warm up. Shot a 41 with a new driver head and shaft.

The shaft is 47 inches and still hit 83% of my fairways. Hopefully this will continue throughout the summer.

I'll probably cut it down to 45 sometime though.

I took 12 years off and restarted in March. I’m shooting in the mid 80s every other round.

I spent a week playing with my brother who is extremely good. He blew up two bad habits. I used to address the ball way back, which was something I developed to deal with the wind Texas. The second was bending my left arm.

I will either break 80 once this year of get bored with golf again and take another decade off.

Was stationed in Memphis at a Navy school, and one of the instructors told me and a really good golfer… “I figured out how to make the ball go left, go right, and go straight, whenever I wanted, so I stopped playing because it was too easy.”
We thinking he was trolling way before it’s time.

I won’t get bored by being too good lol. I get sick of the BS on the course. I like practicing and hitting balls quite a bit. There is a swing coach nearby that is a friend of a friend that I might try to see. He was/is Tim Herron’s swing coach.
