    I appreciate the review as I'm looking for something reasonably affordable for my wife. I used to think the same about carrying but if you have a good carry bag like the Hoofer Lite, you won't have those issues. I tried carrying before with another bag and it was so uncomfortable. I then met some 70 yr olds at my course who play everyday and carry the Hoofer / Hoofer Lite. The balance is night and day. They showed me how you should be able to squat with it feeling the weight equally distributed. When I saw that, I ditched my ClicGear, got a Hoofer Lite and have never been happier!

    • @Seniortoscratch

      @Seniortoscratch 4 місяці тому

      Firm sand needs a more square clubface and a slight forward shaft lean (release 1 if you watch my other videos). Soft sand is more difficult, but the club shouldn’t bounce off of it (more likely to dig). I would say that you should be able to get out of soft sand with the firm sand technique, but the release 2 or 3 is how you can get close

    Beautiful scenery/practice green - in my opinion, Release 1 is the most consistent/predictable. @ 2:00 you stated shoulders level and stand closer to the ball - on fast, downhill greens - Play the ball out on the toe, keep your hands high, and the shaft almost straight up and down, then use a straight back and thru "putting motion" - the ball comes off the face soft and with less spin. Low hands will increase the loft and add more spin. Good luck this weekend!
