The OS Golfer's Thread!

[SinisterAlex]

I did a Google search but nothing came up so I thought I'd ask here.

Can the offset that are on some clubs be removed?

Didn't see this thread yet. I play golf almost every day and compete in tournaments quite a bit. Just got my new set, shooting Victory Red Blades, Victory Red Limited Edition Driver and Woods, and the Method Core putter. I hurt my neck/shoulder on Thursday and went out yesterday and shot a 74. Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day, felt like my swing was off.

I'd love to play golf everyday, do you work?

Golf injuries are the worst. I've realized that I need to get rid of my gut because I've started to have some noticeable back pain lately.

I work 8am-4:30pm every Monday-Friday. I have weekends off so I play every weekend for sure. I usually play 3-4 days throughout the work days, so 5-6 times a week. Today I shot a terrible +2 first 9 but followed it up with a very nice -3 second 9. Neck is still stiff but I was able to get back to my 120+ mph swing. If I would've seen this thread I would have asked OS if anyone wanted to golf with me when I went to Orlando back in May, had no one to go with so I didn't even bring my clubs.

Anyone have a good suggestion on fixing a slice when using a driver. I don't have the issue with my irons but I have a huge slice with my driver.

I had a buddy show me that I could put Pam on my driver and it would stop it from happening. Surprisingly enough it worked but I would really like to fix it naturally.

The best way to fix your slice is to figure out how the swing actually works. Messing around with grips, making sure your not too flat with your right hand is key. Also, coming through the ball with a straight right arm is key for power hitters and hitting the ball long and straight. Also, your take back can tell you a lot about what kind of swing you have. Make sure you're not too flat but not too sharp. You want to be right in the middle. Driving range is the best place to cure a slice. You don't want to be messing around with your swing on the course.

Love what authentic said.

I will do two things - 1) set up more on your heels than toes (not completely where your toes rise up when you're on your heels and 2) hit the inside left of the ball (as if in baseball, hitting between 1st and 2nd).

You'll start to hit it a bit straighter - maybe even a hook once in a while.

I'm not sure if that's legal...
