Hey just needed to vent out about my personal best round of 79 (6400/70,7/129), played from the tip. This became possible because of my new fitted irons titleist t200 and many hours of practice.

Now i just need a way to score this consistently, wich as of right now is my new objective for the summer.

Put some practice time and I'm sure you'll achieve your goal ! :)

Front nine ended up with plus 2 after a triple bogey on the second hole... and then on the back nine, last 3 holes were bogeys :(. But to be fair it was insanely hot outside and was getting less consistent by the end.

Congrats!! I've only broken 80 once back in October 2019. Can't seem to get there again but a new job has changed my golf practice schedule dramatically! I hate it when works gets in the way of my golf game!! But i know the feeling! I was on cloud 9 when i got my personal best. Even my buddies that were my witnesses couldn't believe how i was playing that day! I love it when i amaze my friends!! Ha ha!!

Way to go!

"Shirtsleeve" swing technique:

1. Setup: Elbows bent forearms pressed together against shaft slightly forward of center with "Hogan" "active/flexed" leg tension left foot turned out slightly and the right leg slightly farther to the right - weight mostly on balls of feet butt of left hands sits on the top of the grip with very light grip.

2. Swing - W/o disturbing weight distribution of legs and feet lower hands while doing a forward press "swing trigger" then the left upper arm takes over on the backswing, it needs to go out in front of the body then back in front of the chest as the hands trace down initially then up to over the right shoulder "Torres". The goal is to not disturb the pressure of the feet during the initial takeaway.

 

Notes:

1. Only swing thought after swing trigger - extend left arm at shirt sleeve when reaching left hand over right shoulder "Shirtsleeve technique".

2. The upper left arm move "Shirtsleeve technique" can be practiced independently without a club, sitting down for instance

3. The correct feet tension can be felt by doing very short hops on the balls of the feet then holding the same feeling of pressure on the front of the feet and then taking three practice swings with the grip very loose in order to not disturb the same pressure on the feet and on the 3rd swing actively do the "Shirtsleeve" move. From there the swing should be done within a matter of seconds to not lose the feel of the legs resisting, this way this is not a learned technique as much as it is a setup technique.

In my case it made a great difference. I had ap2 712 stantard length,lie,loft stiff flex. I played a few years with them and without really noticing, I had developed some kind of compensation in my swing to hit them flush. They were just too small for me and it made it hard to be consistent with them. So I decided to get a fitting in a very reputable course in my area. I loved this experience and ended up going a few times there to make sure everything felt good with the clubs, I was going to choose. In the end, I went from my old ap2 standard everything with a stiff flex to t200 1 inch longer, xstiff(kbs), standard loft and 4 degrees upright( im 6 foot, 3 inches). It was about god damm time. I feel now, way more confident with my clubs and very comfortable as well. That change made a huge difference in my game.
