Riddle asked:


I have developed a nasty problem in my golf swing. I am right handed, and I roll my right wrist as I swing, which causes the ball to hook, and give up distance. Are there any tips or drills I can do to stop this?

How easy is it to damage a golf club shaft?

xeroxman2901 asked:


I had a golf bag in my trunk and someone put a rigid 20-30 lb suitcase in the middle of the bag, and a 15-20lb bag on the heads. I drove around for a while on a rough road in heavy traffic, so lots of hard turns and potholes. It looks like the club shaft that was directly beneath the suitcase is slightly bent, but it’s hard to tell.

These are steel, regular flex shafts.

Our company is sponsoring a golf tournament. We are going to be sponsoring some of the holes on the tee boxs handing out prizes. We need a game that we can play for the prizes.

How ’bout them Cowboys? asked:


I started playing golf a few months ago and I’ve been able to make some pretty descent shots with every club EXCEPT Drivers. I don’t know why. I’ve been to the driving range a few times and I cant even hit it to the 50. I got a tip from a golf pro who said I have a good swing but I need to not move my head. I tried that and I did a little bit better, but I still need a lot of help with it. Do yall have any good tips?

How much are you willing to pay for one round of vacation golf?

walterjay asked:


I do plan to get at least one round of golf in. A little pre-planning shows the greens fees range from $120 to $270. While I like the experience of different courses, $270 seems a bit steep, especially when I’m playing as a single. How much are you willing to pay for one round of vacation golf?

Winter’s here and the golf season is over, but I have tryouts for the golf team in March. Since no courses will be open until after then, how can I keep from getting “stiff” over the winter. What are some good ways to practice?

I am volunteering for a golf fundraiser in September in the Northeast. I have never been to a golf event, I’ve just seen them on TV. I will not be golfing, but I will be helping set up and mingling. Do I wear sporty golf clothes? Do I wear a sun dress? Help!
