I'm looking to getting my mom some upgraded clubs (she currently uses Honma). She is a 8 handicap and wasn't sure what to get her. I was looking strictly had senior or lady styles... any suggestions?

Pay for a fitting and go with her. Let her pick them out or go with the fitting results.

Basically, if she's a true 8.0 index, that's very good for a female. Anything below 12 is somewhat rare in my experience. She probably has a good idea what works. A much better idea than we would have.

Is she asking for an "upgrade" from her Honma clubs?

No she isn't asking for an upgrade but the clubs are pretty old so I'm thinking she needs an upgrade. We use to live in Japan so for irons, she only had Honma's and Maruman's. I'm wondering if I could open her mind to Tayloremade or Calloway irons.

Good for you to want to get your mom some new sticks. But be sure she is willing to part with the old ones. They could be "old" for a reason. Women are known for attaching emotions to physical things. Well, men are too I guess. But chics seems to do it more from what I can see. As an 8 hcp, I would have her involved in the process.

Good luck with the "Tayloremade" and "Calloway".

hahahaha I finally caught on to my mispelling. Thank you for the humor. I didn't realize that we had a spell check function in our reply box.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Shindig · Posted

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
