well I just like to say hey as I have been reading all your post about tournaments and equipment for awhile now but just now registered as a member. My best friend is a member here, Thrash13, and has been trying to get me do register for a while now. This is a great board and I am excited to getting some help on some golf questions as I just started playing golf about 5 months ago.

Hey man, I'm glad you finally registered here. And trust me, you will more help from everyone else than you do from me. There are some guys and gals here who know much more than I do.

So everyone treat this guy good. He needs some help on the golf game. :)

Welcome aboard. What area of your game are you working on hardest right now? And, more importantly, how often do you beat Cody?

Heh, never. He still has a long way to go, but he is getting much better. His chipping is his worst part of the game right now, but even that is improving.

I don't know if teacher will ever let student win in this case, but I hope he gets in the 80s in the next couple years. Our rounds will sure be a lot faster.

Yeah, Cody has dominated me everytime we have played but like he said, I am getting better. My main problem is having clubs too short for me and I am inconsistant in keeping my head down and watching the golf ball...but I am getting better each and every time I play...I know one thing, this game gets you hooked way too easy!!!!

    • Day 532 - 2026-03-17 Did some work on the Swing Coach app today. Good number of "good swing"s and "Shallow by 2" (or 1, sometimes even 3).
    • Day 85 - 2026-03-17 30 minutes of putting work, 15 chipping. Getting reacquainted with the Scottsdale green and greenside terrain. Really freaking hot here.
    • Day 9 (17 Mar 26) - Worked with alignment today to work on getting properly lined up with target point using alignment rods.  Worked on getting takeaway parallel to alignment line.  Solid session. 
    • Day 212 3-17 Flow work and arching. Hit some foam balls. Recorded 
    • Im struggling to hit a 3 wood any distance. Im 67 now and used to use a 3 wood all the time. My swing speed with the 3 woods is between 80-84. I am only 5'5" tall. I currently have 4- 3 woods in my used club selection. I have an old Titliest 910FD, a Taylormade Sim2, a PXG gen 4 and a Ping G430. None of these can i hit more than 180 yards and often much shorter. My driver which is a Ping G430 I hit about 210-225. Heres the crazy thing, I carry a Taylormade Sim2- 7 wood that I hit 175-185. I carry an older titliest H1 Hybrid 23* that i hit 165-175. All yardages are with carry. When i hit both the Hybrid and the 7 wood they feel like very solid strikes yet I never feel like i hit any of these 3 woods solid. All of these clubs have regular shafts of different manufacturers. I would like to be able to hit a 3 wood 200 yards. Im thinking I need to start playing with shafts, Maybe even shorten them some. I have equipment to pull shafts and set swingweights and reglue. I have a bunch of reg flex old driver shafts that i could shorten. My driver, 7 wood and Hybrid are all D3 Swingweight. The 3 woods are D3 as well.  Where would you start? Thanks Rod
