Hey guys

Season is starting up for us in the northeast. Been to the range a couple of times have yet to be able to get to a course. But I always have played a fade, use to fight it but it is my natural shop shape so might as well play it. Well recently I have been drawing my irons, not a ton maybe 5 yards at most. I got fitted for mp 53s with the dynamic black and gold shafts. Was just wondering if anyone has bought new irons and as a result change what they perceive is their natural shot? Or do you think I just change my swing without really knowing it? Last but not least does anyone else play one shot with their driver and another with their irons?


"Fade the driver, draw the irons" sounds like a playing philosophy, and it sounds good.

My personal playing philosophy is "Hook the driver, chunk the irons."  And it's not good.

Weird, I slice the driver and thin the irons. To each their own, I guess.

    • Day 49 - 2024-11-18 Light day of HackMotion work in the basement with my putting. Suffice to say my feels very closely align with what is measured.
    • Day 200 (18 Nov 24) - Broke out the MacGregor blades to do some “vintage” club pitches and chips.  Focus was on alignment and where I am looking in relation to the ball…have been working on finding a focal point about 3-6 inches ahead of the ball (toward the target) and not staring at the ball.  Getting very predictable strikes.  Overall it was a fun drill session and will serve as a warmup to tomorrow’s planned front 9 walk with these irons and persimmon woods and of course a “new” putter - a Acushnet Bullseye…
    • TV ratings  continue to drop. Stop the endless wiggles and waggles.
    • I believe that losing a tour card is too extreme but definitely agree that more needs to be done to prevent slow play.
    • Its way past time both tours  have  major  penalties for  slow  play. I  hate  it when they say" This group is  on the  clock". Big damn deal. Issue  penalties. Maybe Hull is a  bit too harsh but  its time a slew  of  2 stroke  penalties start  being  issued.     Charley Hull is fed up with slow play on the LPGA, so she offered a ‘ruthless’ solution “I’m quite ruthless, but I said, ‘Listen, if you get three bad timings, every time it’s a tee shot penalty; if you have three of them, you lose your Tour card instantly.’ I’m sure that would hurry a lot of people up, and they won’t want to lose their Tour card. That would kill the slow play, but they would never do that.” Who knows if that will work. But if it does not, maybe the PGA Tour should adopt Hull’s idea. The LPGA should, too, or at least assess penalty strokes for slow play. Five-hour rounds for a final group on Sunday is unacceptable and a quick way to lose interest and engagement from fans.
