    Great news on the weight loss and fun round. Don't beat your self up on anything and relish the great shots, they will happen more and more. One thing to think about when hitting, to gain distance, is keep your arms solid and strong. What I mean is if you were going to pound on a wall, you wouldn't do that with noodle arms. Also get your hips through your shot. Your belt buckle should be at your target by the time your club hits the ball. I love the content. I just had my spine fused in Feb and I'm struggling a bit to find my game again. I'd rather see you drop without penalty than risk your knees going up and down a hill. can't wait for the next one John.

Stay focused john and keep having fun. Win or lose we all support you and love your content. Keep it up and can't wait until your next video.

    On your putts, set your hands more upright, out the putter more in your fingers, and let the weight of the head be more in control than your hands. You'll have SO MUCH better feel on greenspeed.

    Have you ever been diagnosed with adult ADHD? I spent years of my adult life operating with some of the issues (focus, missing attention to detail, and mental cloudiness while performing a task) I see on display in each of your videos. From one big guy golfer to the other, you should look into it man.
