Looking for some new stretching pre round

I do some dynamic stretching prior to playing to loosen up hips, back, and shoulders.

Do you have a pre round stretch routine that has helped you move better? Any between or after round stretches?

I’m getting older and it seems like I’m taking longer to get freed up. Today was an awful front 9, just could not get in synch. Barely could move the club or my body. I walk, but I was cold for awhile. Felt stiff. As it warmed up, I played better, but early I looked like I had never played golf - putrid.

Are you looking for a right before you tee off stretching routine or something to get you loose before you start on the range before you play? If it’s the drive up to the parking lot with 10 minutes before tee time scenario, I have a heavy rope that I swing about 20 times that I focus on making a good shoulder turn with a good finish. You can get it into a pretty good back and forth rhythm. Warnibg though, it does look like I’m about to beat a dog with it so I do it in the parking lot but it honestly does a real good job getting me loose when I can’t get to the range. However I almost will cancel a golf game if I can’t warmup on the range. I lift and also train BJJ daily so I live in a perpetual state of being tight so if I can’t get an hour of range work beforehand it is a literal crapshoot if I can even make solid contact until the back nine.

I’m tight, but mostly from fatuous indolence.

I guess I just need more time as I age to loosen things up and get the club swinging freely.

I have an orange whip. I sometimes swing it whe the range is closed.

I was looking for maybe a couple of simple stretches to do between practice green and first tee.

I like to warm up swinging one of these guys to loosen up the muscles and limber up the back.

If you have a stretch lab around you try it out. I’m 64 and just bought 12 one hour sessions. It has loosened me up tremendously.
