fuck those rubber tees. all the ones at the ranges around me are either 0.2″ or five fucking feet tall.

some of those mats will eff your clubs up as well.

Agreed with all of this, yet I’ll still go to the range tomorrow.

/high five!

if he wasn’t in the NFL he might find chris hanson waiting for him in the kitchen.

I want a full transcription.

I’d love to see them schedule the Lions. Would be nice to play Stafford for the first time in two years.

I’d like it because there is a perfect storm for them to take a leap next year. Be a perfect moment to showcase them.

not a huge fan but, like mats, they’re your only option sometimes.

i struggle getting good practice off anything but real turf. the mats allow you to get away with too many mistakes in your swing. also, not everyone tees their ball up the exactly like those little rubber tees.

What are people’s opinions of the practice wiffle balls? Do they give a true assessment, or are they just fun to hit around the yard?

I broke all of mine. They’re good for a wedge, maybe. I think the foam ones would hold up better.

I’ve had some of the minor dislocations with golf its usually fine. It was just the loss of strength over time. I’m glad I got a workplace ergo re-assessment. I’m 35 and would like the use of my shoulders when I am old.

The first game of the season on network tv on a Thursday night would be a ratings bonanza no matter what.

True.

@st bear – get a lesson. if nothing else, it’ll give you a few drills to incorporate at the range so you’ll be sure you’re not waisting your time when hitting balls.

I took a lesson when I first started, but it focused on the short game and worked back. We never picked up a driver or wood. Consequently, I have a relatively good short game.

i have a hard time giving credit to people under 5’10″ for their swing. it’s much more difficult for the taller, longer players.

fuckin’ midgets.

lol…this.

no offense. it just pissed me off how easy and compact their swings can be.

They also play the Raiders. I guess you couldn’t count that one out because of the Bay Area market. One of the Bay Area teams often plays in primetime week 1 because it’s a pain in the ass to make a schedule that doesn’t have them both playing the late game in any given week.

The LATE night MNF game.

You think you’re involving your hips, but you’re probably moving your shoulders more than anything which changes the swing plane and causes the severe outside/in path that produces the slice.

yea.

hogan has a great illustration in his book about this. when you’re at the top of your swing, imgaine someone’s reaching around from behind you, grabbing your belt buckle and shifting it til it’s pointing at the target.
