Hit the driving range for the 1st time this season today. It was the 1st time I'd hit balls since the snow flew last November. MAN DO I NEED TO KNOCK THE RUST OFF!!!!!

Question - how long does it typically take most of you to get back to playing form after taking a few months off?

I actually came back and my ball striking was as good as it's ever been, but I think that's just because I've been swinging in my room all winter in front of a mirror. What really was off was my short game and putting. >40 putts per round in 2 times out

I've played 3 rounds in 2011 so far. I've made some mistakes but overall I'm driving the ball and using my irons fairly well. But from 100yds in I stink. I'm planning to spend a couple of hours practicing short game tomorrow. Hopefully it will help.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      Live Updates from the range! Open the club face at address, and trust that you’re gonna be able to get the face in a good position at impact. I don’t have to feel like I have to keep the face open throughout the entire downswing. The swing feels much more free-flowing through impact. Difference in ball flight is that previously it would be a low to mid trajectory that starts straight and draw left, or slight pulls. New ball flight are high push draws.  It’s kind of stupid. I feel like it should slice off the planet. I look up and it’s maybe a slight push. 🤣 Some distant wedge feels. More weight on front foot. Keep weight on front foot.  Pivot around left knee. Solid contact all the time.

      Day 2:  I hit a bucket of balls this morning.  Not gonna lie, almost didn’t go since it was my first time going alone and it was a little intimidating.  I mostly hit with my driver (the last bit of balls was with my 7 iron).  The sun was in my face but I think the ones that had good contact with went the furthest yet (maybe 150 yards then a good roll?).  Once I switched to my 7, the first half of my balls were crap.  I’ve always hit my irons before my driver when practicing and done fine - does this make any difference or is it just because I’m so green?

      It's likely per "category" of clubs, so irons would be one category, wedges would be a category, driver a category, fairway woods/hybrid a category, etc. They aren't going to charge you $50 per iron for a fitting. Almost all iron fittings are done with like a 6 or 7 iron, fitters don't carry full sets of every iron. So yes, if you use a 7 iron for the fitting and let's say you get fit into the P790 with a certain shaft, 1 degree flat and .5" longer than normal you would just order the full set of P790s with that shaft/lie angle/length combination and you'll be perfectly fine.
