Thanks guys, I think I got it now. Add a stroke no matter what, o.b. or lost re hit from original spot, lateral hazard (so water off to the right but still 150 down the fairway is a lateral hazard?) drop where it went out

okay, so should you be hitting 5? or is it just a 1 stroke penalty? I always hear "2 stroke penalty". I'm confused now....not that I wasnt before I guess.

Overlap.....there was an article in Golf Digest ( I think) 2 or 3 issues ago that talked about the three main grip types and listed a couple golfers that used each type if anyone is interested. Nothing too interesting, though. It didnt go into nip points or anything like that.

Maybe a stupid question.....but Is it a 2 stroke penalty no matter the situation? My friend got me thinking the other day. You add two strokes from the last shot you had, correct? i.e.......2nd shot goes o.b., you have to drop so you're hitting 4 at the drop

Good to hear.....makes me feel better about using that swing pattern. I have tried a couple times to keep someting under my arm just doing practice swings and I dont think I ever got it to stay once where I actually had a swing that felt good. I am going to try it on the range next time and...

I am new this year to eating, sleeping and breathing golf, so I am still trying to pick up on the lingo of the sport. Please post the definitions to any word, term or phrase, as best you can, that a non-golfer would not know, slang and actual terms. Chances are I don't know it either. It...

A few years ago I was playing with a group of friends, thankfully. One of them was waiting at about my 3 o'clock facing the green, for me to hit a shot out of the fairway. You would think his position would be safe. He was not even paying attention and I shanked my iron shot so bad that it went...

Thanks for the tips guys. I actually have the straightest and longest drives when I make a conscious effort to swing at an imaginary ball, as you noted. Another thing that I have tried to do to promote the in to out swing pattern is to imagine that I have a ball or loaf of bread or whatever...

The magic ball of lint would probably be just as good!

Sure looks like a lot of people have looked at this post...obviously no one knows anything about it???? Or maybe its a big conspiracy??:) I guess I will just take my chances!! Wish me luck!

The ball flight will usually curve right, it will never go straight right

I need some help with my slice. It is not terrible, but it is definitely there on most drives. Any suggestions?? I already have tried or am trying closing the head a little, weighted tape, right foot back at address, right thumb on the left side of the shaft as opposed to down the front...

Hello all! My name is Brian, I am 31 and I live in the Heartland of America: Omaha, Nebraska. No cows here! The metropolitan area has a population of around 1M, believe it or not, and still growing. Anyways, this year is my first year of playing serious golf, although I usually got out a couple...

"Play Golf for Free"- Ken Hammond?? I would like to know if anyone has purchased, or knows anyhthing about the program by Ken Hammond that I have seen advertised in numerous places that is called: Play Golf for Free, and Get Paid to Play, or something along those lines. There are a couple other...
