It was real windy today on the couse (25 mph sustained out of the north). Put my 2 iron 18.5* in my bag. I have trouble with my long irons getting up in the air. Well today it worked great! I have 2 holes going into the wind and brought this club out. It was good for about 225 straight as an arrow and pierced the wind. Maybe it will stay in there for the rest of the season to fight the north wind. More than anything just glad to get out for the second time after a 2 month IR rest.

I am looking at some project flight shafts for this reason. I dont have any problem from 6 iron (32*) down. I would like to bring these irons down a touch. That's why the flighted shafts.

I take an old 5I blade with me on the really windy days. Can not recall the last time I actually used it in play, but it is there. Usually I just guess at the wind and watch the show.

    • 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. 
    • 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).
