So who's been playing rocketbladez this year? I've read the initial reviews,... But how are yours working for you? And did you get them fitted? I got mine in April, shortened by 3/4", and they're really starting to come good! Think I'm gonna get the lies retested at the end of summer though, just to see if an adjustment is needed after the shortening, but overall, I'm happy! Never hit 4i as well as I can with these bad boys!

The only reason I'm posting this is because yesterday myself and a friend were 230yrds from the green, I was in the rough but with a decent lie, he was on the fairway, he pulled his 3w out, I hit a 4i lay up but landed pin high just off the green! He asked what I'd hit so I told him, he checked his gps and said I'd just smacked it 230 yards from the rough!!! I only drive around 240 with a driver! I can only presume these rocketbladez are a bit special or I was momentarily possessed by the spirit of hogan himself!

From the rough you may have caught a pure "flier" shot. I've done similar with my 9i from 160 in light rough, it flew the green with an easy swing.

They do that once in a while to keep us addicted to this silly game.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.
