Hi everyone, I'm from Central NY and stumbled upon this site googling golf tips. I've decided to take up golf again after a 6-10 year(I don't remember) lapse. Still haven't had the time to get out on the course, but I can't wait, no matter what I shoot.

In my bag I have a set of R7 CGB Max iron clones from Turbo Power, an R7 CGB Max clone driver from Turbo Power and X9 Extreme MOI hybrids(2 and 4). I went with clone clubs for two reasons: 1-I have a limited budget and spending $800 on a new set of irons didn't sit well with my wallet. 2-My Burner LCG irons, Ti Bubble 2 driver, my late father's bag were stolen out of my truck two weeks ago. After the theft of my clubs, buying new clubs seemed to alleviate the situation, eventhough the Mizuno cart bag was the biggest loss. My clones seem very well built, I've hit them at the range half a dozen times so far and they haven't fallen apart yet.

I'm glad to be a member here, maybe I'll see you out on the course

      I got two trips lined up this year.  First, Pinehurst next month. Qual Ridge, Mid Pins, Southern Pines 😁, Mid South, Talamore. I am looking forward to playing Southern Pines since it got redone.  Second, a trip to eastern Wisconsin in early August. Whistling Straights, Blackwolf Run, Erin Hills.

      3 Wood Shafts

      By saevel25 · Posted

      You are probably doing the right thing in having more fairway woods or hybrids in your bag than irons. Just easier to maximize ball speed for you swing speed to get the proper gaps.  A driver is teed up, so you have more leeway there. The 7-wood is probably more optimized for carry for you. A slower swing speed needs higher launch and spin to keep the ball in the air. With the 3-wood, it probably launches too low with not enough spin to keep it in the air.  If you are not going to go get lessons, or do some sort of swing speed training, go get fitted for clubs. Clearly your mix-match of equipment is not optimized.

      Can Somebody Explain to Me Why Lie Angle Balanced Putters Are Important?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      32 putts are average for a single digit handicap golfer. Limiting three putting is the biggest task. Speed control is the most important aspect of putting. Probably the 2nd most important is aim.  The putter is going to rotate open a bit on the backstroke. It might stay square to the arc of the putting stroke, but that does mean the face opens up a bit on the backstroke when measured against where the face is oriented at address. Go get a putter lesson as well.

      Keep us up to date with your findings, please.  I'm not looking for a putter, but I'm sure you're not alone in your venture to get the putts rolling better.
