The difference in setting of the videos together like that, also looks like a trailer park vs the big stage

but I'm happy for you OP that you're happily developing and extending your golf skills. Better than being inside all day

fukin lol. I've spent a lot of time on a trackman and know how my impact/path numbers stack up against the guys making millions playing for a living, I think I'll keep doing what I'm doing nomsayin'

That said, lol just lol at thinking the hips should be rotating until the shoulders stop their rotation. Strong everything. Also this is a 3-wood with a +1 inch shaft, ball position is correct.

Point out where my head/body is jumping upward in the downswing.

I'm not going to say anything because one of the best golfers I know has the ugliest swing I've ever seen, and I've been told countless times I have a PGA swing but I'm an 18 HC so go figure.

Average handicap is 18

So I’ll fly out and play you, same as that other guy, $10k dollars, you have your handicap I’ll have 18, strokeplay or match play up to you

I never say what I can’t back up. I got called out on a three plate squat, so i video’d it.

How about it, or are you going to go quiet like Heyzeuschrist guy who also shut up when I offered him a game?

I don’t understand what you mean when you say you are an ‘actual scratch to 3’..?

What does that mean? They are worlds apart. Do you have an actual club handicap?

means my handicap moves around based on how often I'm practicing/playing and how well I'm playing.... at those levels it doesn't take much, not much room for error.

Low point was a +2.5 but I was at it hard 7 days a week, not sustainable

Have you got a swing from down the line? I honestly can’t see that grip and setup getting near scratch BUT unlike the twits above me I’m not calling you out, if you did, you did, good for you.

Amazing how everyone who called ME out has now shut up when I offered them a game. Pathetic.

Nah don't have one loaded up and not home to do it rn, but not sure why you'd think my grip is some kind of limit, guys making millions on tour with a stronger grip then me.... and also it's by design, I've messed with weaker grips and it just introduces more manipulation requirements into impact to square the face up imo.

And the setup is by design, also keep in mind it's a 3-wood I'm sweeping off a tight lie. Setup looks markedly different with a PW.

LMFAO!!

Should have known OP's golfing technique would be on a par with his squatting.

In to watch his stumpy, fat bald ass getting ethered before the inevitable ban.

I can’t think of a recent tour player with a grip as strong as you, I’ll admit I don’t watch week in week out though

I didn't know. The way you started the initial post "for those who doubt my golfing chops" insinuates that you posted this video based on an older thread or argument. I was trying to figure out what golfing chops you claimed.
