After some more-consistent-than-usual play this spring/summer/fall, my handicap index has finally dropped below -3. Thanks to a round of 74 that included an eagle 2 on a 284 yard par 4 this weekend, my index now reads a beautiful -2.8! Just a few more tenths and I can play in a US Amateur Qualifier.

Just curious at your level of play, if a S driver shaft might give you more everything off the tee. Great going.

I'll let gas_can explain the benefits of my shaft b/c I'm not 100% sure, but even though its an R shaft, I believe its tipped a little stiff - for what reason, I'm not sure - it's what my pro recommended for me though. My swing speed is only about 94 with my driver.

Congratulations! When you get those last tenths knocked off and play in the US Amateur Qualifier, make sure you register as FAHooGolfs so we can track your progress!

I am sort of Sub-3, as in I no longer hit triple digit scores, but I guess that is a bit different :)

Anyway, grats to a fellow Virginia resident and let us know when it is in the plus range! Keep up the good work.
