I would like a perfect 1 iron shot, because if I can hit that well, I can hit any other full swing well.

Is this just a post to let us know you hit it inside 12 ft six times yesterday? ;-) Some stats [URL=http://www.pgatour.com/stats/stat.405.html]http://www.pgatour.com/stats/stat.405.html[/URL] [URL=http://www.pgatour.com/stats/stat.404.html]http://www.pgatour.com/stats/stat.404.html[/URL]

I guess it could be taken that way, but the focus was meant to be more on the fact that I only made 2. I see that 2 out of 6 falls in line with the stats you provided, but these are easy, straight in or slight break putts. My percentage on pro greens from 10 feet would not be comparable to them obviously.

Are you kidding me? 330 yard drive straight down the middle. No contest.

Agreed.  No contest.  Not only would it help with my scores, but its sexy too.

I suppose I would take the accuracy with full iron shots from any of them (since that's the worst and most inconsistent part of my game).

Funny thing is that 2 years ago that was the best part of my game...But I lost it somewhere.

And I would yell, "F*CK YEAH!!" as loud as humanly possible in my followthrough. And I would do it every time! "F*CK YEAH!!!!!!"

Why just one shot?    Well, ok, I just want one shot at their winner's purse.

( Besides the shot at purse, any shot is ok with me.)

How about a driver swing that hits 12 out of 14 fairways? That would set up a lot of good things during the round.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Yep. Gimme Bubba Watson's driver swing, and I'll happily deal with the rest.

I'd love to have the creativity and confidence that some of the guys have around the greens. I am very much an up in the air player - flops, open face pitches, lots of 60* wedges in my round. I would love to be able to play a bump and run with the feel that the pros do.

Long drive on the fairway. I was driving well in a round last week and with short irons in I managed a par, par, birdie, par streak. Just because of long drives that left me between 140 to 106 coming into the green. I'm happy with short approach shots, so I want the long drive.

Stenson's 330 3W is fine, but I'll take any 300 yard tee shot consistently in the fairway. 280 is OK too, just give me a look at the green from 160 or less and on the short grass.

Why do they call golf "golf"?  Because all the other four letter words were taken.

If I could regularly recreate Stenson's 300+ 3W, I'd wear the same outfit every time I played golf - A white Izod polo, A kilt, a wig of scruffy long hair, blue and black war paint on my face, and I'd scream "I AM WILLIAM WALLACE" every time I hit the ball.

Come to think of it, I'd rather have Happy Gilmore's 400 tee shot.

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
