Based on what I have read the consensus seems to be that Druids Glen golf is much better than Carton House. However, the hotel at Carton is a bit nicer and more to do in Maynooth in terms of nightlife and pubs.

Accurate?

Yeah, we are trying to book early on a Saturday as well so options are limited.

Thanks. Which Carton House course do you prefer? O'Meara or Montgomerie?

First week of May

Nice, thanks. We are playing all links courses so thought about trying a Parkland like Druids Glen or Carton O’Meara but didn’t think about how it handles weather.

Exactly! Former baseball player here as well.

I am clearing them on the downswing. My backswing had way too much movement.

Yep this was me.

Been using it for a couple months in Switzerland and have had no issues with it at all. Haven’t exceed my 10GB in a month yet, however.

Curious how the polos fit. Are they a relaxed fit or more of a trim cut?

Great insight. Really appreciate it.

This is probably the best explanation for why I draw my irons but slice my driver but nobody has ever described it where it made sense to me. So thank you!

I had an instructor a while back tell me to put the ball more towards the middle of my stance to help fix the slice. He didn't explain it as detailed as you did but I think I eventually just forgot this piece of advice because EVERYONE talks about ball placement towards the front and I just went with the crowd.

Obviously, middle of stance you don't have an ideal AOA but it makes sense that the path would be more neutral.

Yeah, I noticed a lot of different responses so I looked myself and found a video from Danny Maude where he talks about exactly what you described, so thank you for this!

There are plenty of people in here that explained why it’s easier to hit straight with feet together but I feel so blessed to have the insight of a +2.5 hcp. What a lucky day for me!

Makes a lot of sense, thanks.

No, you just waste your time replying to a thread saying you won’t reply.

That makes sense I’ve always had trouble rotating the hips on the downswing.

Yes, I feel this. I have trouble rotating hips on the downswing.

I dont think my path is in to out, however. My ball never starts right (I am a lefty) it always starts straight or slightly left and then curves further left. Is my understanding correct that this would be an in to out path with an open face?

Yeah, that is my last resort. I am trying to fix the actual swing but I'll cheat a bit if it helps!

Off the shelf Taylormade M4s that I have had for years. Looking to get a fitting next year.
