My wife's buying me a set of blades next year for my birthday. I guess I'm tough to shop for so she jumped at the opportunity to get me something she know's I'll use and enjoy.

Just tell your wife that you'd like a new set of irons for your anniversary...

I am. If you have the money to buy them, buy them. If your wife doesn't want you to have something you really want then she is selfish.

Tell your wife exactly what you want. Get fitted ahead of time, get the specs and give your wife the info. Regardless of what it costs - she'll be happy to do it, and will say "I wish shopping for you was always this easy."

It will work.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
