Tom, I signed up! Felt it was the right thing to do since your free youtube lessons have brought by handicap down from 10 to 7 over the last two months and it is still going down. Looking to get and stay below a 5 now. Hoping the member content will make that happen.

Tom, I am studying the short game videos. I just need to get in some practice time. I got to the course late this morning and just had time to hit a few mid irons and drives to warm up the back and hips. I really like the consistency I am getting. I only had three really bad swings today. A pushed drive that didn’t draw back, a drive that did hook into a bunker, and a fatted PW. The other three bogeys were 3 putts. Sometimes the heat gets to me and I rush a short putt and don’t give it the concentration it deserves.
Today was the fifth round in a row below 80. So that is really satisfying for me. May have to change my score to beat down to 77 soon. 😄
It's looking like that goal of getting below a 5 is materializing right before our very eyes, @Ronald Burkholder. Now, how about really spending time on those short game courses so you don't continue to bore us with a steady diet of 75's... 🤣
Nice playing!!
It was. Today I shot 75 again but I had 6 bogeys, three due to 3 putting. I hate that. But I also got 3 birdies. I hit 14 greens! S&T is the real deal! And Tom teaches it superbly.
Thanks. Golf IS fun!
Congratulations. Great round.
Shot 75, three bogeys and 15 pars. Couldn’t get a birdie putt to fall. Hit 10 greens. Got up and down 5 times. Watched the chipping and pitching lessons this afternoon. I have had the chipping yips for over ten years. I chip left hand low and do reasonably well. But I’m going to practice the simplified method for a few weeks and then put it in play and see if it works for me. More to follow.
Most excellent. Welcome aboard, @Ronald Burkholder!! I really think you are going to enjoy and benefit greatly from the robust school content on a vast array of topics for the full swing and well beyond. I also hope to see you actively participating in and contributing to the wonderful, mutually supportive community that this Members' Forum has become!
Thanks for posting your intro message. Now... let's get on with achieving that goal!! (Speaking of which, you may want to start with the Get Out and Play quick start program that was just added to the school last week, being sure to take it from the beginning. Much of it may be refresher material for you, but it will ensure that you are on the proper track and you'll likely pick up some helpful new crispy nuggets during the review as well.)
Tom
