When I started playing this amazing game I had a VERY VERY old set of MB mixed clubs and real WOOD woods. I got down to a 4.5 handicap with this set of irons and woods playing jr. golf. For X-mas one year my parents took me to get a new set of clubs and the sales person talked me into getting a set of Cavity Backs that were oversized. After this purchase my handicap went through the roof and the quality of my game went down hill fast, I believe my handicap went up to a 12 or 13 in the matter of a year. The only thing that stayed the same or maybe improved was my short game (wedges and putting). Does this make any since at all to anyone? I'm now 22 and thinking about getting back into tournament golf as I am now back down to about a 10 handicap and was just wondering if I should invest in some new MB irons in hopes that it will improve my game again.

thanks

I dont know how much time you spent with the new clubs, going from an older set of irons to the cavity backs, I would think you would need some time to get use to the look and feel of the irons. Just for grins, do you still have that old set, if so, how do you hit them?

      2026 U.S. Open

      The criticisms are starting already 🤣 U.S. Open pro criticizes Shinnecock green conditions: 'Bumpy' After playing his first practice round at the 2026 U.S. Open, Michael Kim offered a less-than-glowing review of Shinnecock's "bumpy" greens.   The sand, I don't care about that. If the greens didn't come back as well for latest aerification, that would be a bit of a blunder on Shinnecock I think.

      Andy Plummer on Abduction and Adduction

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Well, if your frame of reference spins twice during the swing, then Bryson's ab/adduction is more like 780 degrees so there! (Yes I'm being silly, but not sure it's any sillier than what your pal Andy is doing...)

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Update: Brandon Sorsby has decided to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft. He will not play for Texas Tech in the upcoming season.  From my perspective, I think he did the right thing. I hope he gets the correct help for his gambling addiction. I say the right thing, because I would be worried that the stress from all of this now and throughout the entire year would not be beneficial towards his mental health.  If an NFL team picks him up, then there really isn't any pressure for him to play immediately. He can work on himself and his game for the NFL.  From Texas Tech,  "Texas Tech will continue to provide the support and recovery resources Brendan requires on this journey. Furthermore, Texas Tech will not seek return of any amounts already paid to Brendan through his NIL agreements with the University," Campbell wrote. "We wish our best to Brendan, and we offer our prayers to him and his family as he chases his dreams at the next level. This has been an unbelievably painful experience for us all, but I know that his true, underlying character and lessons learned through this experience will ultimately bring him great success on the field of play and in life." Which, I also the right thing to do.
