Swing Analysis
 

Bucket,

What about this impact?
Who is this guy?

Who owns this boat?

I decided to finally have a putting green installed in my back yard. Bucket recommended this layout. Thats ok for short putts, but what about the 30 foot putts? Should I aim one ball left or just for the left edge?

Doesn't matter as long as you roll the ball with sufficient speed to finishe 16.35 inches beyond the hole ;)

Good to have you posting again!

Three to get ready...
 

1. The guy is Wes Ellis, former Texas Open Champion.
2. The boat is being purchased by someone named B. Gay (first name is not Notah).
3. Regardless of the size of the hole, it still favors the better putter.

What is WRONG with you people??? This is a space for Mullets and Bad Teef . . . .

Bucket,

Hey, I'm looking for good down the line swing sequences of the Downstroke but I can't find any. Everything has gone video. I leave golf for a year and the world changes again.

I'm specifically looking for examples of Wrist Throws and Sequenced Releases. No one seems to do it anymore? is it too old school? Hmm? Any suggestions or maybe you already have them....:salut:

I've got something for you to try. Its screwy but what the heck. Address the ball. Stiffen your left arm and using your right arm, pull your left arm snuggly accross your chest with your right arm all the way to the top, or end. Start your downswing but don't release the right elbow until its almost too late. Don't forget Standard Wrist Action durring the Backstroke. Hit the ball another 20 yards. Its just for fun.:)

Drew you know your stuff.

1. That is one dynamic lower body move, nice flying wedges. Tell us more about Wes Ellis. Any other photos or swing sequence pics? I'm hitting these days (sorry Daryl) so its looks way too unsimplified for me given my new dumbed down approach to things (hit 13 out of 14 fairways yesterday and blew it past my long hitting bully, nemesis).

2. Hah. Reminds me of Daryl's brother Daryl. Nice guy and a hitter.

3. You refer'n to Gene Sarazen's suggestion of the 1930's to widen the hole............tested and rejected due to a further advantage to the better putter?

Ellis Island and a Little Poison
 

1. Wes Ellis Jr., dominated golf in New Jersey for many years and won three professional tour events. He died at 52 years old from kidney disease.

Ellis won the New Jersey Open, the New Jersey P.G.A. and the Metropolitan Open in 1963. He took the New Jersey P.G.A. four consecutive years, begining in 1961.

On the tour, he won the 1958 Canadian Open, the 1959 Texas Open and the 1965 San Diego Open. He served as head pro at the Mountain Ridge Country Club in West Caldwell until 1967, then went to the Westchester Country Club in Harrison, N.Y.

3. Very good O.B. and if memory serves, Paul Runyan (aka Little Poison) a short hitter, but an exceptional putter won both events that the hole was enlarged. He simply made even more putts than before.

BTW, Runyan attend a few seminars with Mr. Kelley. Kelley thought Runyan was a marvelous student of the game.

Are you really Hitting these days? You have such a nice swing. Why would you turn to the Darkside? :)

Wes looks great doesn't he? Look at that "Pitch Elbow" position. It makes you proud to be a swinger.

I'm WAITING for Bucket to comment on all the angles, but I called and he's been in the bathroom for like 18 hours now. C'mon Bucket, use the Laptop....:laughing9

we need more of this stuff :D

Thanks Daryl. That must have been before you had your eyes fixed, but thanks. I dont look too different. But the feel difference is profound. Somedays I may actually be swinging, I dunno. Maybe a little shorter going back is all most people would notice. Im also try'n to incorporate more abbrevations and spelling errors to fit in with my hittin bretheron..... er bro's. Getting my teeth unwhitened next week.

historicgolf.com . . . . best place for pics!

Use it for what?

They have "Historic Golf" all over the picture. :(

you can still use 'em . . . . right click go to properties copy the url and the past 'em here as an image.

Nah, I don't want that coming down. :naughty: It's really funny :laughing9 :laughing9 I'm a TGM nut, not a Golf nut. I don't have a single picture or Artifact in my home or office about Golf. No one could ever guess that I even played the Game if it weren’t for the 100 books and Basement full of Golf Clubs and Gadgets. I don’t even own a golf tie. :idea1:

Who are the people that buy those pictures and dishes and coffee cups and stuff you hang on the wall?? Bucket....are you one of those people? Are you a closet Golf aficionado collector?

If anyone is one of those people, please step forward and explain.

Who Owns Bookends?

Who owns Statues?

Collection Agency
 

I own all that and a whole lot more. BTW, most have appreciated substantially in value since purchased. I wish I could say the same for my investment portfolio.

Where can I get a small statue of a Golfer for my Front Porch?

"A step up"
 

"Short Games R US"

Mike O can make you a real nice on . . . . the most realistic statues I've ever seen.

I haven't seen him around. I’ll ask. :)
Anyway, I couldn't find a statue I liked. I looked all over the Internet. No luck. :(

this is perfect . . . just strap a golf bag to his back . . . you're golden . . . as in shower.
