Seems like when I when I want to look something up on the internet for some reason, all the result I get are for someone trying to sell me what I'm asking about!  I found an old Hogn  Special 51 "K" grind is my garage, and can't find any information about the "K" grind, and why it's called that.  Cany anyone help?  Thanx in advance!  Fairways and Greens!

Can you post a picture? It probably refers to the sole of the club.

If I recall correctly, the "K" in K-grind stands for Kite (as in Tom Kite). They came in 51*, 56* and 62* lofts and were commercial versions of what Kite was using at the time.

      It could  be also getting lazy with your routine. I agree, you can’t focus your self to a swing you don’t practice and make your own.

      Golf's Mental Game Aspect

      By billchao ·

      This is my take on it, as well. You don’t top the ball because you didn’t think hard enough, but screwing up the following shot because you’re angry about the last one and didn’t give it enough effort can certainly be partially attributed to lack of mental fortitude. Honestly I think most people like to say that golf is mostly mental because they want to tell themselves they’re better than they actually are.

      Rafa Nadel swing is awful and that's coming from my swing that's not good but if he is an 0 handicap then his tennis skills grant him to hit the ball a far distance?,I dont know but I would say that's not a scratch drive distance (250 -280yds) swing,more like a beginner, I now appreciate my own swing now..lol
