I'd say do what works for you, those are the things that will improve your game, not what someone else does or says. I sweat like a prostitute in a confessional, but it doesn't affect my game, a carry a towel. I also go through a...

I'd have to say that with the average pro only hitting the fairway 60% of the time, we weekenders would not do much better with a driver. And they can recover much more easily than we can, IMHO. I believe being in the fairway with...

I don't know if that applies to all beginners, high handicappers or even those with handicaps between 12 and 15. The driver is over stressed in todays golf. Sure the pros hit the ball 300, but with a less than 60% in the fairway result...

You are correct, what works for a golfer is what they should work on. I just can't make a turn due to 3 herniated discs and my right knee is bone to bone so I end up with a limited swing range. My hybrids don't require as much movement...

Wishing you the best in success with your driver. I'm just not able to do so, but, yes I wish I could crack a 275 yard drive off the tee every time and be in the middle of the fairway. It would be great. Doc
