One iron

 

To the course of municipal came a swinger one 

fine day.

Hardly spoke to folks around him ,  didn’t have 

Too much to say.

No one dared to ask him for a round, no one

Would be a nag

The swinger there among them had a one iron 

In his bag

One iron in his bag

 

It was early in the morning when he came

Onto the range

He said these folks a swingin they are

Lookin mighty strange

“He’s an Ernest Jones disciple” it was 

Whispered he had lag

And he’s here to do some business with a 

One iron in his bag

One iron in his bag

 

On this range there taught a dumass by the name of

David Led

Many golfers read the a swing and he got

Into their heads

He was anbs artist with a cap at

Twenty four

And the lofted woods inside his bag numbered

One and thirteen more

One and thirteen more

 

Now the new guy started talkin made it plain

To folks around

He was an Ernest Jones disciple couldn’t stay long

In this town

He was here to play some real golf by swingin 

That club head

And he said it didn’t matter that he was after

David Led

After David Led

 

Wasn’t long before this story was relayed to

David Led

But that dumass didn’t worry,  his a swing 

Kept him fed

Twenty strokes he’d be given twenty no this

Was not a gag

A loss would go to that swinger,  with the one

Iron in his bag

One iron in his bag

 

Now the morning passed so quickly and it

Was time for them to play

It was twenty past eleven when they made the

tee that day

Golfers watching from their tablets

Everybody placed their bets

They knew this unknown swinger was old school

As it gets

Old school as it gets

 

There was a hundred yards between them

When their second shots they played

And the distance of that swinger still talked

About today

David Led just passed the ladies tee when he

Saw that awesome lag

And the swingers aim was deadly,  with the one

Iron in his bag

One iron in his bag

 

It was over after nine holes,  it was plain for

All to see

There before them that dumass with an a swing

Began to flee

Oh he might have went on teachin,  but his bank

Account did sag

When he tried a match the swinger with the

One iron in his bag

One iron in his bag

 

One iron

One iron

He tried to match the swinger with the

One iron in his bag

One iron in his bag

    • If you own a Stack radar…
    • If you own a Stack radar (for now, it's limited to Stack radar only), and want to work on your wedge game… it turns out that wedge distances are 99% correlated to ball speed. So, with a small radar, you can practice your wedge game easily in a gamified way.
    • Day 11: 2/16/2025 Rince and Repeat: Just like yesterday I spent several 5-10 minute sessions working on what I learned on Friday.   
    • Quick update. So, I got the PXG Secret Weapon and I have to say I like it... mostly. (see below) I spent some time with it on the range and I even gathered some data in doors. I'm not going to post data yet, as my swing is still a bit of a work in progress and I'd like to gather some more data after I settle down a little bit more. But here's my review.  First as a driver replacement. ... IMO it is not a replacement, it's clearly more of a supplement... for me anyway. Not long enough to really replace the driver. For me it's about 20 yards short of my driver. It is longer than my 30-wood off the tee. (15 yards-ish) I will say it is easier to hit off the tee than my 3-wood. I get some of my best shots teeing it low, but I also get some of my worst. If I tee it about a full inch off the ground I get very consistent shots. Super repeatable. Amazingly repeatable even with my messy swing. Off the tee, I find it draw biased just a bit. You can tinker with the set up if that isn't your personal cup of tea.  As a 3-wood replacement. For me it's about perfect. It's longer than my 3-wood off the deck (my data showed 10 yards longer) and it has a gentle fade to it, which I love. You do need a clean lie, but I never hit my 3-wood off anything but a clean lie anyway. I found it interesting that I hit a gentle fade off the deck and a slight draw off a tee. I'm sure that's not uncommon. Again, you can tinker with the set up to optimize that if you wanted to... I don't want to.  It's clearly a lot longer than my 3-wood off the tee. Easier to hit off the tee than my 3 wood, and off the deck it's also longer. So, it's a no-brainer 3-wood replacement for me. I will say that over the years I've learned to use my 3-wood for this low-flying-100-yard-punch-out-from-under-a-tree shot.  I'll have to see if the Secret Weapon can handle that duty. But it's going in the bag to replace the 3-wood.  I also turned my 5-wood down from 19 degrees to 17 degrees. ... Incidentally my 3-wood had been 16 degrees. I used to always hit my 5 wood and my hybrid about the same distance. This adjustment helps my gapping a bit at the top of the bag. I can clearly hit my 5-wood farther than my hybrid now.  Overall on the PXG Secret Weapon. The good: It's clearly longer and easier to hit off the tee than my 3-wood. It's a bit longer off the deck than my 3-wood.  It's super forgiving... surprisingly so.  It's uber adjustable. ... Although I do suggest getting fit for it. That will save you having to (or wanting to) buy a weight kit just to try out the infinite number of set ups. The headcover is super cool.  The maybe not so good: Shots out of the middle sound great. Shots off the heal sound great. Shots off the toe sound ... what's the work... clangy? It's very forgiving off the toe and the heal. The flight and the distance are incredibly consistent. But the sound off the toe isn't great.  For me I tend to draw it off the tee and fade it off the deck. You can set it up to be biased either way, but in my hands I think if I set up a draw off the deck, that might induce a duck hook off the tee. ... In fairness that could also be where my swing is at right now.  It's pretty spendy. ... If I really stop and think about it, I paid $450 for a new 3-wood. Granted it's a better performing 3-wood. But for me it's really a 3-wood replacement.
