Which 3+ are you using? I'd like to add one, and end up hitting my 16* hybrid as a safety club.

It's old school. It's the Cleveland Quad Pro, 13 degrees. A really good club. Probably 10 to 15 years old.

What i meant to say was no problem

Based on your handicap I figured you either dropped a word or that your "problem shots" were on the wrong side of the pin.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

My thought process is get the ball in play off the tee period! That's step one in playing a hole. Nothing will kill a score quicker than hitting it out of play. My 3 wood has a low boring flight that rarely is in trouble. My driver tends to go higher and if wind in involved, it's more risky. Dependent on the course my 13 degree normally works just fine.

I WISH from 250+ I could choose what side of the pin I was on :)

Instead of running out and buying one, Play golf with someone that allready owns one and use theirs. Thats the best way to find out if you,ll really want to make the splurge and save yourself some money. I use mine ALOT. And would,nt want to be without one.

My highest lofted club is a *54 SW, and if that isn't bad enough it's part of my iron set!

Same here. I bump and run it whenever I can, it's just more consistent for me.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
