Oddbean new post about login | logout I thought about buying a new set of golf clubs. But I'm buying bitcoin instead. Nothing wrong with the old set. I just need to spend more time practicing.
This is how the future people will start thinking no more gotta have this BS just stack and keep stacking 💜🫂🫡
Don't buy a pager
Good decision
It's not the golf clubs that are bad, it's me! Practice makes perfect.
I went again today! It was my 3rd time and I loved it! I mean I’m still training and have not moved to the actual golf course, but it’s a start! ⛳️
Cigars are a gateway drug to golf you know? It's all about being I'm the present and taking the only shot that matters. The one you have right now 🫂
lol I see all the guys smoking while they golf, I’m not sure I’m that experienced yet. I need to learn how to hit the ball first so the whole thing can be enjoyable. Honestly this might sound crazy, but I think my wrists are not strong enough to hold the clubs (like at the end of my swing while chipping and this is killing me) I need to some how work out my wrists I guess, if that’s even a thing? And yea I have girls clubs and they are apparently lighter weight. I suppose with time I’ll gain strength.
Graphite shafts would help. But it shouldn't hurt your wrists to swing. Let the club do the work. You are just guiding it. It will take some getting used to. But you got this!
I have no idea how to explain this in golf terms but I’ll try my best… When I’m chipping, everything feels smooth on the backswing, but when I try to finish with the club pointing at 6 o’clock, my wrist tends to break down and bend. I’m also noticing that I’m tucking my elbow in, probably to support the weight of the club, which feels heavier during the shorter motion. However, when I’m teeing off and can take a full swing, my wrist stays solid and I don’t have that issue. I’m struggling to keep the same control during my chip shots.
Dave Peltz - Short Game Bible is the best book to reduce your score. TL/DR - add more short wedges to your bag. Practice full, 3/4, 1/2, 1/4 swings on a field and measure the distance for each club 9i-SW. Then print the data and tape it to your clubs.
