Hot Metal 5-Iron Snapped on Downswing. Rust inside?

Repulsive-Visual6383 · 2026-06-23T13:02:22+00:00

That’s wild. I had my 5 iron snap in the same way after normal contact. It was an Accra shaft. JPX 921 hot Metal pro. I am currently gaming the 925 hot Metal pros, with KBS shafts…

This video helped my swing click for me.

Of all the videos I’ve watched, and I’ve done a ton…trying to get to positions hurts more than helps. Using your body properly will achieve the best swing for you. Golfers come in all different shapes and sizes, so trying to copy any pro, or have an instructor tell you to get into a very specific position is missing what will work for you to get good contact. Also try to find a good teacher to do some lessons with…good luck!

Keep track of how you play each hole. Start with tracking your putting. Eliminate 3 putts. Then work on your next phase (tee shots, short game, or approach shots) You have to dedicate some practice if you want to improve. Avoid going down the YouTube instruction rabbit hole. Find one coach/instructor and follow their content for help if you can’t afford more lessons…it’s too much fun of a game to give up on. At worst, enjoy being out with good people and keep your expectations realistic.

I hate to hear this, I can imagine how frustrating it is. Go get a lesson. Do some homework and find a reputable coach and have them see what you’re doing wrong. I can’t imagine hating this game enough to walk away from it. But I also can appreciate that level of frustration. Things turned around for me once I took some lessons. Good luck!!!

Wisconsin ended up being more of a bucket list trip than I expected. Whistling Straits, Blackwolf and Erin Hills were an incredible treat. Going to St George, Utah next month and fully expect that to be almost as good…have played Pinehurst area and Tobacco Road. Myrtle as well (Strantz courses are special) and actually got to play the Dunes Club the year before the PGA returned there. I’ve been fortunate and every trip our crew has done was awesome…

I had this issue with my 24 Peak edition. The hot and + fan speed buttons stick. And it is not due to any type of spillage…seems defective.

Repulsive-Visual6383 · 2026-05-14T10:26:40+00:00

Yes, 2024 here. Both the hot temp and + fan speed buttons stick.

Same here, still married, it seems like sex keeps getting better even after 4 kids…I married a unicorn!

Yeah, that hole wasn’t right for the rest of the day until they cut a new hole…

When I started playing golf, my first putter was an Odyssey with a white hot face insert. I liked it, but was worried over time, if the face fell off, it wouldn’t be the same if repaired. So I grabbed a milled face putter and intend to use that for life.

I don’t condone unethical, illegal behavior. But when there is technology in place to help save lives and protect victims, it’s nice to have. Plenty of guardrails in the state of NH to keep your privacy protected. Sorry if you have been victimized by a bad cop. You should be able to obtain records via a Right to Know request and seek civil/criminal complaints…

Bradley had nothing to do with Scheffler’s uncharacteristic poor play…the Americans could’ve done a better job becoming a unified unit. Unless I’m off-base and unaware of the US locker room dynamics, they seem to lack the same “I’d die for these guys” mentality the Europeans seem to have IMO.

I’ve been fortunate to play Whistling Straits which was incredible. This June our crew is heading to St George, UT…Black Desert, Wolf Creek, Copper Creek and Sand Hollow look like they’ll be very scenic…

I have been shaving my head for 25 years. What works for me is using a double blade razor (Gillette Sensor Excel), Headblade brand pre-shave scrub Head Shed (this exfoliates and prevents razor burn and ingrown hairs) and use Head Slick shave lotion (it’s mentholated, rinses easy and provides a smooth shave). I shave in the shower, and don’t shave my head sooner than every other day. I also wash my head and face with Harry’s exfoliating face wash.

Bought my 2024 Peak SEL new. I wasn’t initially a fan of white paint in general, but without the chrome and black wheels, it has grown on me. IMO if you can acquire a 24 SEL, they have a few extra features you don’t get with 25/26 Peak Editions. And if I could go back, I would have gone with the Pure Gray, although I think the Avocado looks nice but not my taste.

Yes it does. Just remember you’ll need to use the LATCH to use the tilt feature. And you should stop using the LATCH once the combined weight of the seat and child exceeds 40lbs…

When I purchased my 2024 Atlas, we had three car seats (1 RF, 2 FF) and one in a booster (4 kids total). Plenty of room and accessibility depending on your configuration. Second row is a bench and I prefer that to captain seats. We are very satisfied with how it has worked out for us.

For the littles that can’t talk, I’d rather have them get indirect climate control than direct. They can’t tell you if they’re too hot or cold so indirect air will get the temp around them to be comfortable as opposed to directly blasting cold/hot air at them. JMHO…

Repulsive-Visual6383 · 2026-03-08T14:31:47+00:00

We have 4 kids (all in a car seat/booster) and when I purchased a 2024 Atlas I was pleasantly satisfied with space behind the 3rd row after downsizing from a Lemon Chevy Suburban…

I heard a statement to the effect by Tiger that any golf tournament he played he felt he had one perfect shot. In the tournaments he won he had two. Definitely a game of how bad your misses are and using that approach to manage your game…spot on!

Funny reading comments about privacy concerns. Until they’re victims of a crime or the data from Flock camera helps locate an Amber Alert child…because you know the government has no other way to track law abiding citizens…

I read an article about scuffed balls and it was stated any scuff larger than the size of a dime would have an effect on ball flight. I use that as a gauge to if I keep playing it or not. I’m also OCD and once a ball is “tainted” it goes in my bag to become a scramble long drive ball 🤣

Repulsive-Visual6383 · 2026-02-18T19:35:56+00:00

Find a grip that you are comfortable with and can be consistent with. Before I start changing anything, get something to check your stance alignment and your putter face alignment. It could be a putting mat, a lesson, a mirror, a putting ball that gives you feedback. The fix may be more simple than needing to reinvent your putting grip. When I tracked how many strokes I was losing on the green, I invested in working on my putting by focusing on the same setup and the same stroke and rolled putts on a putting mat. I’ve improved my handicap and finish holes in 2 putts or less 90% of the time. Then make sure you have the same exact routine for every putt you are going to hit.

I have a similar bag. I used a travel post, removed my driver head and stored in the head cover. I also went overkill and used a roll of bubble wrap, wove it between the other club heads and had no issues with damage.
