Open face at address.

You with a really old camera?

No.

It's a famous golfer

Roy mcavoy

No.

The reason for this thread really is to discuss how open faced the set up is.

It's 4 iron BTW.

I would seriously guess someone like Freddie that played the ball left to right. Although it looks like a really strong right hand so the open face may just be to fight the hook

I see a strong left but neutral right hand.

Freddie don't wear gloves

Someone who doesn't care that the superintendent would rather have you take out parallel strips of turf vs a giant square

It's Tiger. Face is square. Stance is open.

Winner

Here is a 3wd set up. I have rotated the picture to make his feet square. Hard to tell of square.

Slacks and polished black shoes, clean glove. I understand why people would think it is me, but you are wrong, it is not me.

Forearms along with stance look like a younger Jack.

I never really given this a thought. I should quit making 4 x 4 bare spots and make strips. I get it...

Yep. Heals faster + much easier to keep level when it's grown over since the strips can be filled with sand and leveled with the existing ground. Next level care is to take a minute to fill the strips with sand yourself when you're done.

Phil?

For real?

I actually thought it was Phil as well. Obviously, the video would be flipped to make him right handed.

Well, I've always thought he had a unique stance.

Speaking of alignment of the stance especially on tee boxes that intentionally have you facing trouble, try the following.

Picture an imaginary line from your ball to the target. Now shorten the imaginary line to extend about a foot from the ball and square up to that. The head of the club is at the 90 degree bend.

Use this tip and soon, you will be hitting more fairways like me.

Not sure that face is open. All I can see is the top line of the club, which due to the head shape, could look open, I guess.

I'm in for $5, as well.

That is a great tip for serious golfers. I know some in here are smart enough that a light came on when they read it.

Also,
I hit around 10-12 fairways per round and the couple I do miss are not bad. I can't remember the last time I hit a tee ball out of bounds. I will not apologize to a bunch of hackers for being good at golf.

Best take your $5 and invest in your family.

You hit more Fairways because your swing speed is low and you dont impart that much side spin.

I bet your short game is probably your best part of the game. Unfortunately it starts with your drives.

The problem is you give the most basic advice that every decent golfer already follows.

"Hey want to be like me and hit all the fairways? Aim down the middle and away from trouble, then hit it straight!"

Thanks for the entertainment value I guess of either 1. You being truly outrageously pompous, or 2. You being such a bad troll that you think it's funny.

---

A lot of folks have issues with offset tee boxes.

and Swing thoughts for the better players change regularly over the season although one should never have more than 2 during a round. Cluttering the mind with many swing thoughts can cause issues when trying to execute a difficult shot.

I suggest you stick with the simple basics that work for you and stop trying to give your hard earned money away. $5 is the cost of a decent golf ball,

So what you're saying is...

Don't work on more than one thing at a time, and don't think too much while swinging?

Thanks hank Haney!

I'll keep my 5$ bc Either

1. You actually think giving the most best generic advice that everyone has heard 1000 times is helpful

Or

2. You're the worst troll ever

Either way. You've been worth 5$ of laughs already bud

90% of all strokes lost to par are around the green. If you can get up and down, you have game. If you can avoid 3 putts, you have game.

When I analysis my round, I find I normally hit about 10-12 greens in regulation counting the par 3s.
When I miss, I find the ball within 20 yds. of the green. I get up and down about 75% of the time.

My drives are normally 250yds are better but rule of thumb 250. I swing about 90% on the driver.
My game since I was a kid leaves me in the fall and returns in the spring. Anyone can beat me during the off season. Summer, I am deadly.

Thinking of flying to Fla. during Dec break and attend Dave Pelz short game school, 3 days.

Wanta join me?

Ok, so it your hitting 10-12 fairways but only 10-12 greens, and your hitting 250 off the tee.....you desperately need to work on your irons!!!

Unless your playing at 7K + you should be hitting 7-9 irons into greens. At 10-12 fairways and your misses "being not that bad " you should be playing close to par. Let me guess, your a low 80s player with the occasional round in the high 70s!!!!
