Did you say what the temperature was? Winter golf is no fun … besides the layers of clothing your showing here takes distance from you ….don’t forget about what ball your using as it to can subtract distance A lower compression ball works better when the temperature is below 70 degrees Fahrenheit …golf balls don’t like it ether when it’s cold The stuff we do in the winter months to keep playing just shows how great this game is 👍⛳️👍

I typically play from the reds, because my drives just go like 160. People think it's so easy to do that, but the chips are the key and that doesn't matter where your tee off.

Yes, exactly, that is what I was thinking, you still have to chip and putt, otherwise, there is no actually benefit.

I recently picked up a set of brand new old stock N415 Callaway Irons and took them to the Sim and was pulling 9/10 shots. I thought it was me, so went out to the range today (unusual 60* day here in CO) with my OLD Dunlop Seve Ballesteros and was hitting everything straight down the range even from 3i down to PW. I might need to do some more experimenting with different offset clubs.
@thebackyardgolfer70103 күн бұрын
@GregHuston yes it’s not you, blades have little offset and most people will hit pushes, the more offset the more it will go left. Same with me my old taylormade clubs had too much offset, always missed left, changed to callaway apex, started to hit straighter shots

Great video. I think you hit on the nail concerning stiff vs regular. I was in the same boat too between stiff and extra stiff. In the end, slightly stiffer than stiff was the sweet spot. Try this next time, Fujikura makes Ventus with VeloCore driver shafts, and whatever they have is slightly stiffer than normal. Kinda like regular + .25 stiffness. Do not buy their Ventus TR, as it's actually stiff - .25 for lack of better word. Also, with modern LS driver heads, you'll get an extra 7% to 15% depending on where you strike the ball. With Ventus stiff blue 60 and Cobra LTDx LS, I was able to increase my drive distance by 15 to 20 yards! Swing speed is around 103mph for reference.
@thebackyardgolfer70107 күн бұрын
THanks, yes I want to try the Ventus stiff blue velocore, but they are very expensive, I was able to increase my swing speed to 99 mph with carry of 250 max, I wonder if I could increase my distance with those velocore shafts
@HookemFishing7 күн бұрын
@@thebackyardgolfer7010 I got mines second hand off of ebay. The shaft itself won't change your carry distance, but help with tighten your dispersion, which gives you the confidence to swing faster. It's that and the combination of a modern LS driver head that will help you achieve longer distance.

for sure you do not want to hit on sandy mats, it's horrible, I found out the hard way. After cleaning this mat, it's not that bad at all, obviously there are other mats that are better, but you will have to replace them, unless you get one of those realfeel mats that are super thick

@@thebackyardgolfer7010 The angle of the wrist is not changing in the examples you're showing. The hands and arms are just dropping from the rotation of the lower body. Ulnar deviation is a change in the angle, not the direction it's going. However, when you approach impact, there is a massive amount of rotation of the wrists, and some slight ulnar deviation due to centrifugal force. In your case, yes. You had way too much ulnar deviation at the start of the back swing. What you need at the start of the back swing is radial deviation, or increasing the angle of the wrist.
