    Indoor Hitting Net

    OK folks...get ready to say.........What the heck? The video is 10+ minutes long. All you need is 10 seconds. Just picture this bad boy in your living room! The wife would be sooooo proud.

    Reminder Grips

    Does anyone still use them? If so, how large is the reminder rib. It seems like the ones I had back in the day had a pretty large rib. I had them back when I was in college and I'm not sure when, or why, I quit using them. They were pretty "automatic" when gripping the club. I was just...

    John Daly Quits Again

    Why do tournaments keep giving this idiot a spot? He quits today in a Euro Tour event after taking a wrong drop and taking a two stroke penalty. Before that he was hitting the ball everywhere and generally making a nuisance of himself. I don't think he even has the game for the Nationwide...

    I just watched some of Tiger's swings today and.......

    I am just dumbfounded. Now before anyone thinks I'm going to hate on Tiger just cool your jets. I'm pretty neutral on Tiger but I certainly don't wish him to fail. I believe golf is more interesting when there is a guy that raises the bar...and Tiger has been the guy for a LONG time...

    What's happened to V.J.?

    I just thought of this while watching the Golf Channel's preview of the PGA Championship. He has literally disappeared from sight. No one even mentions him. I know he didn't try to qualify for the U.S. Open and he didn't bother with the Open Championship. Is he hurt, lost his game, or has he...

    Wow...Patrick Cantlay

    19 year old amateur shoots 60 at the Travelers!! This kid is going to be a monster. Low am at the U.S.Open. All American in the NCAA as a freshman. Now the question? If he wins, does he turn pro? How hard would it be to walk away from a million dollars and stay in college?

    Driving Range Under the Lights

    Well......I'm gonna level with you..... I'm stuck in my hotel room in Dallas and I'm bored so I thought I'd post up something to occupy my time and maybe brighten your evening as well. I got out of Toyota training at 4:30 this afternoon. I brought my clubs along because I had heard that there...

    David Toms on the Morning Drive Show

    I was just watching the Golf Channel special on Graham McDowell and I thought I heard that David Toms is going to be on the Morning Drive show tomorrow morning on the Golf Channel. If anyone can confirm this chime in.

    Thanks Brian

    Wanted to thank you for another great 2 days of lessons. Trackman is an amazing piece of technology but it's the experience of knowing where to adjust a swing that makes it work. The putting session was a real eye opener and the tour pitch is a work of art. See you in September, and we need...

    Might be a dumb question about Hogan

    And it's probably been asked a hundred times and answered just as often...but here goes anyway. Besides, I'm a little bored and figured someone else on the forum might be bored too. First, a long winded disclaimer. I know just enough about the golf swing to screw myself up. I grew up...

    The Swing I Most Love to Watch

    So, since I've been back I've been spending all of my time around the green. Putting, chipping, a few short pitch shots. Trying to get some feel back and finding out where the club head is. I won't be seeing Brian until the middle of May and we both agree that starting back with a clean sheet...

    Well...I guess I'm back

    So.......all it took was about 1 year of decompressing from all golf and I've got the urge to play again. I didn't watch a single second of golf on TV or putt a single ball in my living room. My clubs were in the back bedroom closet and I didn't even vacume in there. I literally washed all...

    The Journey Ends

    I wanted to stop by and thank Brian and all the great people here on the forum. It's been a while since I've been around and a lot of you probably don't know me, but this place has been my homing beacon for my journey through golf since 2005. I've spent the biggest part of my life chasing the...

    My irons don't conform...groove rule

    I found this interesting. I knew that my old Vokeys weren't conforming and that it didn't make any difference in my State Am stuff and I realize that unless I make it past sectional qualifying for the U.S Open, or lightning strikes and I make it on tour (LOL!!!!!!) the new 2010 groove rule has...

    I need some cheering up

    OK guys......I'm feeling pretty low right now and I need a change of attitude. I have State Mid-Am qualifying in the morning and my game is VERY shaky right now. Two way misses and too much stress. I spent some time on the range after my practice round today and I feel a little better about...

    Robert McKinney, Texas Amateur Legend

    I thought some people here might find this as interesting as I did so I figured I share the story. We just finished the Jerry Rawls Classic here at the Rawls Course at Texas Tech. (my home course, and a great one at that) The Jerry Rawls Classic is the toughest stroke play tournament out here...

    Mike Weir leaves Plummer and Bennett

    I may be the last person on the internet to see this but it looks like another "Star" has left the S&T fold. Mike has gone back to his previous long time coach Mike Wilson. Is the glow starting to fade on S&T? story here: Mike's Blog - New Swing Coach

    A little advice on eating before playing

    Ok...... I wanted to change the mood of my last bleating post about my abysmal putting and ask for a little input about my dilemma for eating in the evenings. Here's the deal I leave work every day between 4:30-5:30 (depending on if we're busy) and head straight to the course. I will play or...

    Putting Rant

    OK....... I don't expect to get any sympathy or even any solution......but I have got to vent. My putting is driving me insane!!! It's a tale of woe worthy of a Charles Dickens novel. It all started a long time ago while playing in college. I was a decent putter when I was in my teens and...
