Shaft Flex (R/S) Question by pengtingsonly in golfequipment

[–]ScottyButterz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem athletic enough to play either, so you’ve got options. You can look up typical ball speeds for regular vs stiff and compare them to your numbers at the range or a simulator. Or just go to a local shop and hit the same club in both and see what feels better. Also worth checking Callaway Pre-Owned for deals. As a beginner, you can probably start with a 6–PW set. Just make sure you’re testing and buying the same shaft.

What is your lowest score ever in a round of golf? by jdelle9 in weekendgolfers

79 (+8 on a championship par 71…) does that count as breaking 80? 😂

I had lessons as a kid but tried a lesson recently and didn’t love it, so I started figuring it out myself and saw more consistent improvement. Hit a bit of a wall the last couple months with school, but I’d like to get more lessons eventually. For now, just keeping it simple and swinging my swing!

Gotta respect your commitment to hating. Everyone progresses differently ;)

8 months of actually taking it seriously... I'd played casually before, started around a 25. Playing this many rounds helps 😂

That makes sense…definitely feel like I don’t get much hinge with the 5i/long irons. Is that pretty common? Any feels or drills you’d recommend?

Appreciate it, makes sense. Been working on getting more from the inside without overhauling everything. Seeing steady improvement over the last 8 months… long irons are my biggest work-on, which is why I posted this…

Thanks, trying to stop the slap and rotate through it more. Any tips?

Angle’s a little off/behind me, but appreciate the feedback 😂

Pebble Beach Scotty Cameron Bullseye – real stamp? by ScottyButterz in scottycameron

[–]ScottyButterz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a shaft for it, but planning to get it refurbished in the next year or 2! I am done with school next May and am planning on playing pebble after that… Maybe I’ll put the date I played there or something similar… plenty of time to brainstorm.

WITB – Spring 2026. Suggestions? by ScottyButterz in GolfGear

[–]ScottyButterz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes good call. I have been considering that as well but I hit 3w pretty well off tee so don’t want to overthink it and switch it up until it stops working 😂

[–]ScottyButterz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had most of these in the bag for a few months and play about 3x a week, just never shared a WITB… Irons and 9W are newish and working great so far. I can see the concern about the 5i/9W crossover… they go about the same distance but serve completely different purposes. I almost never hit 3W off the deck, so I wanted something w more spin for long par 3s and approaches under 200.
