We're all set.

Word of warning: our third looks a lot like Name Redacted.

It's not him. I promise.


Also: I recommend the wings for lunch & I hope you'll try to give yourself enough time to enjoy the practice areas.

It's a treat. I've never had more than ~2 people around when I've escaped down to the short-game area. They take great care of it, these days.

Ya'll have fun. I always enjoy the club and the people at the Chase when I get back to Winston to play there. I'm a big fan of the staff- Paul, Chowder, and Kmart.
 
Finally starting to make some 10-15 footers, left hand low seemed too awkward so I tried interlocking more fingers to avoid too much wrist action

Thanks for adding Shorty. I’ll PM you with my actual name, and yes, I would love to join you two. I’ll let the pro shop know I have a game and I’ll look forward to meeting you on Wednesday. Will you be walking or riding?

I may be able to sneak over and play that afternoon if yall want a 4th.
 
No masks yesterday at Quail, FWIW. Rory hit into the crowd next to #8 green and they asked us to mask up for his chip shot but that was it. Awesome weather.

Hey guys, I’m going to have to ask for a rain check. My daughter has been having a difficult time dealing with the change in her mom’s and my marital status that prompted my move back to WS to begin. She wants to come up and spend a few days with me.

It will have to be another time.

No worries! Let me know whenever it actually works.

I just joined in February, but I'll be glad to show you around whenever. I'll PM you my #
 
Anybody have a cure for pushing wedges short right? I generally hit everything right to left (RH golfer), I’m pretty dialed in with all other clubs, and have typically been a strong wedge player. For about a month I’ve been awful with my wedges - it’s pretty damn frustrating and I can’t fix it.
 
I would think about whether you’re making the same turn with your wedge as you do with a five iron. 120 yards is a shorter shot, but you need to make the same move. Are you getting your back to the target at the top or are you just kind of swiping at it?

I do this at the end of a round. I don't know if it is a swing fatigue thing or what. I hit moon shots that end up short and right.

Had this going bad last summer. The main problem was similar to what Shorty noted: wasn't making a full turn, and, more importantly, wasn't getting my hips/lower body through the ball. Watch a few videos of Spieth hitting wedges, and try to get your belly button pointing at the target at impact. If you're an armsy swinger like me, it will feel like a massive change. I'm still working on leading with lower body, not arms/wrists.
