How to Act Like a Pro

I enjoyed that, a lot! I might have to pull a couple of these out the bag on my next few rounds. Not sure my friends would know how to react when I throw them my dirty ball!

You’re a pro now, remember that. You did not “get new clubs this offseason” – rather, you’re “going through an equipment change.” Yes, those 6 year old Mizuno’s you bought at Golf Galaxy count as an equipment change. And don’t forget to throw in some fabricated stat like “I got them bent so my traj is 1.5 degrees lower than last year” or “My ball speed is up 6 miles an hour.”

You haven’t been “taking lessons.” Instead, you’re working with a new swing coach. It doesn’t matter that your lessons cost $25/hour at Ranger Rick’s (they just put in lights this year!). You’re going through some swing changes, and you need to make it clear to everyone that you feel good about where you are in “The Process.” Just remember, all the hours you’ve been putting in with the new “physio” you brought on the team a few months ago are going to start paying dividends soon (nevermind that this new “physio” is just the instructor in your group Cardio Jam class at L.A. Fitness).

This reminds me of a forum member,can't quite think who it is :rolleyes:

Despite being a newbie could I hazard a guess that those swing changes would be taking place at Ascot GC?

That's Royal Ascot thank you. Changes coming on well since you're asking. Can't wait to get onto the course and try the swing out for the first time in 2014

Are these the changes you posted videos of? I'm struggling to see what has changed. :confused:
 
I can't wait to throw a ball to one of my playing partners on the green to clean it. Hilarious.
 
I'm already partially guilty of "the twirl". I'm not actually sure if I twirl the club but I have most certainly picked the tee up before the ball landed and not watched it finish on several occasions. Can't wait to see the look on Homer's face when I chuck him my ball to clean in our next betterball match :D
