I carry a RBZ driver and 3 wood plus RBZ 3 hybrid.  I've found recently that the 3 wood is my go to club from the tee.  Last week I just couldn't hit it straight. So I used my 3 hybrid to at least get the ball in play.

I actually nailed one to over 200 Mtrs (220 yards) which is well up from the normal 160-170 (180 ish Yards) I hit it. That got me thinking that maybe a newer hybrid would get me a bit more distance and do away with the nightmare that can be my driver!

On Friday I went shopping and bought a SLDR 3 Hybrid while I was in the shop I bought a SLDR Mini Driver on impulse.

I managed to hit a bucket of balls and both clubs seemed to be very good.. but I know from the past that what happens on the range isn't often repeated on the course.

9 AM yesterday morning I am stood on the Tee and and take out my Mini Driver to hit in anger for the first time..

Wow just wow..  Long and straight (well long for me!  225Mtrs (246 Yards.)

That was repeated hole after hole.. I think only 2 of the drives i hit with it were in the rough.. and I only lost 1 ball in the whole round and that was because i hit the ball longer with the SLDR 3 hybrid straight over the back of the green into a lake.

My goto club used to be my 3 hybrid It would get me out of all sorts of problems resulting from my Tee adventures.

I think I only used it 6 times yesterday.

The trouble now Is I am tempted to get a few more SLDR's maybe the driver and another hybrid... and some new irons.. ohhh damn here we go again!

Good News, and worth every cent..  unfortunately I am in Europe and the last time I bought anything from Amazon in the US I got hit with importation taxes and the clubs cost me a lot more than if I'd have bought them here!

      Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
