It's a Bermuda grass fairway. Tight cut, like most high priced tracks.
He's supposed to be hitting the to our right to a green, protected by the pond.
He hit it fat, and although I can't see where the ball goes, I'm certain he dumped it in the drink.

Please remind me not to be near a course that you guys are playing at. How many people's car windows do your balls break?

Broken car windows remind me. I was tooling along a road near a golf course and saw something white bouncing toward the road. It was a golf ball, bounced and almost hit my car. The dude had put the shot way off the course.

All the Fairway Houses have screening as to prevent Guy's like us from having to go broke paying of the Glassman. Most of use just do not have the arm strength to hammer the ball long distances and our course is a Par 45 on the front and the back is a 39. Hey,there are many a day we quit because of darkness. Got to quit before Happy Hour ends at the Ninteenth Hole. Burgers and Fries with a tall cold one once a week works for us.

a few hours of just having fun.. Shot a perfect round a couple times years ago,put the clubs away and after almost thirty years,hooked up with couple of old duffers like myself and who just wanted to slap the ball around without being competitive. It is not a pretty site seeing late seventies and early eight year old Guys playing Golf. But it works,hey,couple have COPD,Knee and Hip Replacements for the rest of us. Many a time the arthritis and the aches and pains cut the game short. Clubhouse for a Lunch break and some cards works to.

That is what I think golf should always be. When I was younger I took some lessons, the pro could not believe it. I could drive like a mad woman but then turn around and 12 putt it!

I never found anyone who wanted to play with me so I took up tennis. Mad backhand, could not serve to save my life. LOL. Now I am 66 and none of that matters but I don't have the time!

Enjoy yourself. You description sounds so lovely. There really is a lot good about getting older.

Sun Feb 2, 2020, 12:37 AM

but their motion is smooth. Trump's entire upper body was moving as his club neared the ball, that is a bad golfer, moving the upper body like that totally messes up the angle of attack on the ball and there is no telling where the club will contact the ground. A golfer that consistently shoots 90 for 18 holes has an infinitely smoother swing than what Trump showed, yet Trump claims to be 16-18 shots better over 18 holes - no way!

It requires that to do what Snead was said to have done. When I played I didn't take a lot of divots, my best was 5 handicap. I just notice that PROs take lots of divots, but they also spin their balls and have them track back toward the hole, I struck a "dead" ball that stayed close to where it landed if it did not land on a slope.

Huge sway to be left, no rotation, club only goes 60% back, no tempo, released way early, whole body goes up on backswing, then back down, (probably why he hits it fat), & his finish is leaned way left like he's chasing the ball or something.
Other than those terrible fundamentals, I believe he's scratch. Oh, wait! No I don't!

I've seen video of that ugly swing before. All the same flaws are there.
For students of the game, swings are like fingerprints, until people reach the highest levels, where everyone has such a sound swing. Even then, some swings are recognizable from a couple hundred yards away.
For recreational golfers, it's more obvious.
Guys at my course.... I can tell who is who if I see them swinging on the tee, when I'm on the green 375 yards away.
Hard for me to believe someone else has the identically flawed swing, with the same herky jerky rhythm.
I think it's him!
