Yup there it is, the proverbial instantly 12 strokes better, all greens in regulation, only birdie or eagle putts, all fairways hit, no slices, no dices, no snap hooks, just petite baby draws that land in the middle every time!
Tangueray No. 10. But it's hard to find. I'll call ahead before I go and have them order some. 😁 Which I'll share with Rickie, Dustin and Boogielicious.
I don't mind the whipper snappers.
None of the young punks seem to want to get into my business, so I ought to make money until I'm too senile to know the difference.
I wore a long john and 4 layers on top. I also had a ski gloves on in between shots. Fortunately, the sun came out after about the 5th hole so I could take a layer off and the ski gloves.
It also helped that I walked.
Hey, I don’t want to jinx the experiment by calling victory, but it worked. I used a regular flex and much lighter shaft that weighs 48.5 grams. It has a med/high launch and is cut to 46.5” and plays at 47.5”. I put it on the TaylorMade M6 head in the upright setting. I did not remove the weight screw or tinker with the head at all. My first two drives were a hook and a fade/slice. However, once I became use to the feel and slowed down my swing to about 75% the results were impressive. The ball flight settled in at a mid launch draw. I definitely picked up yards. I don’t know how many because at my range we hit into a lake, but I know where my drives usually end up and this was well beyond that even into a decent breeze.
The lighter, more flexible shaft must have compensated for the added swing weight. The strikes were on the screws. I am encouraged by the results. We will see what happens when I put it into play.
