With Christmas coming soon, perhaps you are going to gift yourself with some new sticks. If you do, why not let us know what you bought and why, as well as any other interesting aspects of your story.

  • just bought a set of Mizuno mp-58's, 2 degrees upright, +1"
  • am gripping them with Lite Winn grips.
  • Finished the 6 iron - hit it at the range
  • officially loving them.

Living in Michigan I am looking forward to playing a little indoor golf simulation with them at Big Al's in Midland. That will have to do until I can travel south for some golf after Christmas.

i just treated myself to a new set of mizuno irons as well. a used set of mx-23's 4-PW with S300 shafts.

i've played about two rounds with them and am still trying to get used to the added distance they give me. i'm carrying them about 10 yards further than my ta7's which is odd seeing that they have the same, if not more loft, and i'm going from regular to stiff shafts.

Congrats on the new clubs guys. Some fantastic prices and opportunities out there.
Always glad to hear about them. I suspect there will be deals on lots of clubs just after Christmas.

However, for someone looking for a new set, I have a set of Ping Eye 2's available in time for Christmas, Thanksgiving even.

I recently recieved some 710 AP2's (3-PW) from my dad, and after 2 weeks, they are frickin amazing. Theyve got stock S300's in them, and they are so solid. I can work the ball easily from either direction. They look similar to blades, but play much more forgiving, and I would reccommend them to mid-low handicappers. My coach bent some clubs 2-5 degrees flat, which scared me a lot, but he was amazed how "jacked-up" the lie angles were. Anyway's, they are customized to fit my swing, and they are sick.

Whats in my 14 Way Stand Bag?? Just...

A little early Christmas gifts to myself...
Taylormade R9 460 TP w/ Motore F1 65g shaft, R9 3 wood & 5 wood TP w/ F1 75g shaft, all new for $545.
I have played 3 rounds with the R9 460 TP driver and love everything about it. I am still waiting for my 3 & 5 woods to come directly from Taylormade.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
