2011 and Beyond

As the New Year approaches, I look ahead to things I would like to learn more about or information that is new about golf and the golf swing.

One of the biggies for me has to do with putting and time and whether it's better to think of distance or time when rolling the ball.

What are some of the things about golf and the golf swing that Lynn and the community wish to learn more about in 2011 and beyond?

Distance and time go together I would think. You have to hit the ball harder in a uphill putt than in a fast downhill putt. A golfer has to develope feel for these things - knowing how fast the greens are..

Talking about uphill and downhill putts, why does an uphill putt reach the hole quicker than on a same length downhill putt? Something to do with acceleration/deceleration rates?

Welcome.
I guess it has to do with hitting the ball hard enough to get to the hole. It has to start fast enough and is often hit with much more authority.

More understanding of the machine as it applies to my game. Old info but new to me.

I'm really just hoping I can start playing again. My body hasn't let me hit many balls the last 4 years, and I really want to put some of what we've learned into practice. Hopefully losing some weight, PT for my elbow, and stretching this winter will get me ready for spring.

I didn't know that you couldn't play, KevCarter.

So you have all the good reasons for being grumpy but yet you come around as one of the nicest persons on www. You certainly carry your problems with grace!

I wish you great progress in the health department. You deserve to play golf in 2k11.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Looking forward to meeting with Mike Adams at the PGA show to hear about and see their new line of wedges. Still trying to convince David Edel to send me a putter fitting system....
