Farking Bastage posted:^^ I got on the range this morning and grooved it. Good stuff mate. I have the Mavrik in a driver and it's a fantastic head. Earlier this year I changed shaft to a Tensei AV RAW Orange. It's counter balanced (more weight towards the hands) and for me it's helped a lot with control - dispersion is way better. Also bought a similar shaft for my 5 wood. It's interesting re. shafts - my driver swing is 110-114 and that Tensei is just a stiff flex. The balance is more important to me I guess. Actually went to a fitting session and the Mavrik numbers all but matched the TM Stealth minus about 5 meters. With the boutique shaft they wanted like $1,600 AUD. Told them I'm not paying that much for 5 extra meters lol

My cousin is a teaching pro who routinely breaks 75 and he played against one of the higher ranked Indiana amateurs in a for fun match and got dusted by 6 shots. Golf is really hard. So true. I recently played matchplay against a +2 handicap 13yo. He got me on the 17th 2&1 and I was quite proud of that. I mean I have a day job and all hahaha

Incredible final round of the French Open. One of the hardest courses in the world (hosted the Ryder cup) and this guy shoots -9 62 to win it. Insane. Also probably one of the best shots under pressure this year on 72nd hole https://youtu.be/k2iGWJ1zUwI (8:40)

I have a natural in-to-out swing path and I find a lot of those clubs have a draw bias so I hook the poo poo out of them. I only have a driver then 4-PW as I don't trust my swing with those clubs. Interested to know which brands/models aren't set up to be anti-slice. If that's the term for it.

Josh Lyman posted:Generally, clubs/brands that cater to better players are less draw-biased (that’s the term). I’ve hit the new TSR fairways from Titleist and they are very neutral. The TSR2 is a great fairway for all skill levels. Thanks Josh. I'll see if a local fitter has them to try out.

Yeah, take nothing away from Rahm's amazing last round but Collin needs to work very hard on chipping. Painful to watch.

Chromatics posted:Man, I've been improving a lot on the range but my back muscles get knots in the instantly. It's not exactly that I'm throwing my back out, the muscles just get very tense near the shoulder blades. Buy a set of Power bands and use them every day. I go to the gym regularly and always do stretches with those. Cheap and very versatile as you can use them anywhere. https://youtu.be/bcwdonkWbik I do variations of the stuff in that video. Rows and face pulls are excellent for shoulder and back strength/flexibility. Halo14 fucked around with this message at 11:23 on Mar 10, 2023 |

abigserve posted:was 36C here and I got out for 18, shot 78 but couldn't get the putter going. Nice round. You in Sydney? I got 18 in before midday and was so happy to avoid that furnace. Strange to say in the Golf thread but bring on winter!

Drives me bonkers that Cantlay doesn’t wear a hat. Think it’s because the sun tries to kill us down in Australia.

Played Barnbougle/Lost Farm twice each. Fantastic courses and the accommodation is top notch also. One day I'll play that course on King Island. One of my favourite YouTube golf channels, Taco Golf posted this last week. One of the best golf video's I've ever seen because it's just amazing scenery, no talking/personalities and you watch a professional golfer doing his thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xCp8HmQuAqM Oh the course is like $400 a round so...yeah.

Suprfli6 posted:Good on Rory for the win just now. I really hope he keeps playing well now that he's hopefully a little more focused on himself and his game because he is one of the more exciting dudes to watch when he's playing well. So good to watch when he's on and when he starts sinking putts from 15 feet in it's game over for everyone else. Can't wait for the PGA.
