Yesterday I ran to play a quick 9 after work. I had my usual work shirt on (a button down short sleeve semi-casual), and its usually comfortable at work so I decided not to change into a golf polo.
By hole 3 the shirt was sticking all over me due to sweat, and it felt like it was tugging on me...
Saw this press release and found it interesting. Having a mini-tour cover the whole country would probably generate more interest & sponsors. Anyone thinking of joining, or just generally happy about the news?

The book that came out a couple months ago. The local library doesn't have it, and its still more than I want to pay on Amazon. The B in WTB can be buy or borrow :)
My old iron set for sale. Nike VR Forged Split Cavity 3-PW, DG S300 shafts. Stock Nike grips, except the 5iron, which has a generic black rubber grip. They were purchased new about 1-year ago, and used for about 15 rounds and a few range sessions. The 5i was purchased separately and most of its...

Swings: http://youtu.be/ZdCRt_CQymM
My first time posting a video here. A couple things I noticed: my takeaway starts a bit with my hands; my right leg gets too straight; and I think I'm rotating my hips too much.
Any thoughts/advice/drills are appreciated.
I recently made some swing changes, and after a range session my glutes were sore. I've never had that happen before. Are they sore because I shouldn't be working them, or are they sore because they're finally being used properly?
I went for my first club fitting in November. I was disappointed in the launch monitor results, because I thought I'd had a decent swing developed. My driver swing speed was only 85-87 on average. Worse yet, the monitor showed I was coming out-to-in a whole 8° on average. My stamina was bad too...
For sale is my Cleveland Classic XL Custom with a Miyazaki Kusala Blue 72x (X-flex) shaft. 9 degree base loft. I bought this used in September and used it for about 5 rounds, but it spins too much for me.
Cleveland stock grip. Standard length I believe. Face shows little wear (has stickers on...
If you haven't heard, it's being discontinued after the 2014 season. That's too bad, in my opinion. It was nice to see a national tournament for those of us that have never been able to afford to join a private club. I know it's not the most popular tournament (searching the THP forums revealed...
Last Saturday I finally went in for my iron fitting. I got on the launch monitor with my Nike VR Split Cavity 6-iron and my shots were all showing 125-135 yards total distance. However on an actual course my 6-iron is my 150-160yd club. I asked the pros doing my fitting about this difference and...
This is something I've been wondering lately. Why hasn't Odyssey branched out to make any other types of clubs? They have the name recognition and tour exposure, so if they decide to build a driver they'd have no problem selling it. Why do you think the owners of Odyssey have chosen not to expand?
I was pondering lately about potential and how far one can really go. Can someone make it to the PGA tour if their golf game isn't like all the other pros? I know Jim Furyk was told that he would need to change his swing to be a pro, but it turns out he made it work. So here's a list of...
Some of my friends and I are thinking of going out to a local 9-hole course (par 33 - 6 par 4s & 3 par 3s, so really short). We're going to show up with a pocket of balls and a 7-iron. Maybe to make it interesting take a shot every time you make par. A reference to the movie "Tin Cup" in case...
Ever since I started playing golf I just had whatever was off the rack. When I started buying new clubs a few months ago I didn't think I needed anything other than stock shafts in regular flex. I thought to myself "I'll never end up like the pros with the extra-stiff flex". But then after I'd...
Hi all,
I've been reading forums/articles on THP for a few months, so I thought I'd finally join. I live in Wichita, KS and I've been playing golf for about 17 years. I played golf all through highschool but after that I only played 1-2 rounds a year for several years, then started getting back...
