wow... think i am in love. played golf after work yesterday. didnt have my club so i borrowed a friends 09 slingshots. wow... just wow. couldnt miss a ball, even bad swing were high and true.

workability was good as well; cuts were a bit better than draws but not a meaningful difference from my tour x-20s

i may be in the market for some super game improvement clubs.

I play Nike slingshots. Excellent clubs---almost makes golf easy!!!!! You can work the ball but you have to lean on them. Very high and Long.

If i had a complaint they can be a bit high on windy days. All said and done they are a very under rated club

Agreed! I love my Slingshots, very forgiving. Today my worst shot was literally on the edge of the toe. It turned the club in my hand it was so bad. 175 yd jpar 3. Ball ended up just left of the green about 10 yards short, not bad for such crappy contact. I also find it easier to fade it than draw it.

I have a very high ball flight, so when I tried my friends set they went even higher.
It's true though, they are much eaiser to to then say my Ben hogan Combo blades. the sliingshots will be very hard to hit out of tight lies though.

      Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing.

      _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.

      Width at P4 Has Downstream Effects on P6 and P7

      I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
