For some reason, I always hit spot on with my 4 iron, and it even goes where I'm aiming. Why is that? Is it just a confidence thing? What clubs do you never miss with?

"Miss" is a relative term based on expectations. Those expectations tend to vary with skill level. As an example, you often see a tour pro pissed off when he hits a shot that I'd have been pretty darned pleased with. Given that, I can't think of any club with which I never miss......my expectations just continue to change.

Kind of self-fulfilling disappointment, I guess......

No one club in particular. I miss with all of them. But lately my 5 iron feels great in my hands and I can seem to do whatever I want with it, not sure why that is but I'm not complaining.

Lately I've been great with my wedges, consistently getting within 4-5 feet from 50 feet and in. It's all the other clubs I have issues with

My 7-iron is my go to club. I love it.

I will say that I'm genuinely afraid of my 4 and 5 irons. I need to spend more time with them on the range.

      This Putting Product Actually Seems Like it May Have Some Value.

      By snapfade ·

      I always get adds for "Find your Eastern European Soulmate" I think it's a nifty gadget to have at home. If your going to do a dedicated putting session I could see setting it up. Thanks for sharing.

      Here's the bet. Assuming the pursuit of a Tour card holds, who wins their first Tour event? Charlie, or this Russell kid? Bet is off if Miles Russell signs with LIV.

      Strategy on Neshanic Valley Ridge #2

      By billchao ·

      It seems like too much work for me. I'm actually surprised at myself for spending as much time on this as I already have. Shot Scope tells me my shots to finish with a 7i is 0.1 better than with my 50 or 55 so I'm just going to go with it. Actually, I tend to be the complete opposite. I've never faced a shot I'm convinced I can't hit. It leads to great heroics and complete flops. Conservative for me might just be someone else's normal.

      And like Matt said, and I have hinted at… it's ONE ROUND. Because you have to get hot. Better players than him failed to get through. And… Peaked too soon, perhaps. He could also get injured, get surpassed, lose interest or lose his game… Again, if I trusted y'all to uphold the bet, and if the bet wasn't basically a 15-year proposition… I'd bet y'all. The odds are against him, and heavily so. So… he didn't qualify, and he's playing on a sponsor's exemption. Jordan Spieth was 16 years old when he tied for 16th in a PGA Tour event… and I realize that mentioning Jordan Spieth (who has obviously had a lot of success) seems to argue against my point, but Spieth is the exception and he did better at only a year older than this fella. The odds are strongly against him.
