Just joining thesandtrap - looks like a great spot to exchange ideas about the game we love. Have lived many places in my corporate career, but currently in Charlotte, NC in a new and exciting opportunity in GOLF - finally!
Sporting a 13.4 handicap at this time, and always looking for a game. Do a great day and give thanks for all we have ...

Welcome aboard, and happy Thanksgiving to you. May you eat too much and pass out on the couch while watching football!

Sorry I was not able to respond sooner, Eric. Frankly, I passed out on the couch from drinking not eating! Hope I'm allowed to mention that here.
Thanks for your welcome note, my friend.

No references to drinking are allowed . I didn't eat one piece of pumpkin pie on Turkey day because I had eaten myself under the table. Holidays aren't losing weight times for me.

Eric - are those smiley's clanking mugs like they were toasting? How do you do that?

I happen to know that it's ": beer :" (without the spaces). But if you want the full list..., they are here:

http://thesandtrap.com/forum/misc.php?do=getsmilies If you ever forget, just "Go Advanced" or click "Post Reply" and you'll see Smilies to the right. At the bottom it says "More." Click that and a window with all smilies will appear.

      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).

      3 Wood Shafts

      By rod7515 · Posted

      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
