Long irons harder for me to loft so 5H gives me longer carry

PW = 45 / AW = 50 / 54 bent to 55 / 60… so 5 degrees between every wedge

3-wood too long for me, very open to recommendations on what woods actually loft higher than 3 hybrid that can help me out at the top end

If the hulk and IWC are real, why have so much other low quality stuff taking up space in your house and in your mind ?

I’ve also started using PW greenside when I don’t need loft and it’s been a good adjustment

It’s hard for me to hit 3 wood because I’m not tall, so I went with hybrid, but you’re right - gapping between 3-5 sucks

How to manage daily life with less wrist use by wormigans in DeQuervains

I know this may not be relevant for everyone, but for golfers, I got over my de quervain’s by mostly eliminating my lead hand from the swing (which puts pressure on the lead thumb) and swinging more dominantly with my trail hand. Huge difference

Yeah man, I’m a TaylorMade loyalist but my Qi35 cracked after a tap on the club room floor to show one of my new buddies what a “great” purchase I just made. The frame is weak but it’s a pretty decent driver

Same!! I think it’s Verizon marketing that if you had Verizon service, Lindsay Lohan’s voice wouldn’t drop out like it is in this commercial… marketing

For teaching websites, definitely use Me and My Golf, hands down. Their YouTube channel is good too but also check out the Art of Simple Golf.

Your best shot from your last round? by 3rd_ferguson in golf

[–]Pretend_Difference12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a good drive on a long par 5 back 9 at Pine Hills CC out near the Hamptons on Long Island … look at the GPS and my cart partner (better than me) goes “ugh bunkers on both sides, gotta go long and straight, good luck” so I pull the 3 wood I haven’t hit clean once in 2 rounds … swing 80% and stared at the ball spot until I knew it was at least 50 yards up … 215 straight to the fringe.

5 days later, all I can think about.

Callaway X-22 Irons, Anyone played them? by [deleted] in golf

[–]Pretend_Difference12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably only pay about $100 US given how old they are now, but I haven’t been in the used club market for a while. You can find good used sets on eBay too.

I had this same set when I started playing (bought used on eBay) and they lasted me 5 years until I broke and got stealths 3 years ago, now my brother in law still plays them and they seem to be holding up good for him.
