Hi All, 

Very new to Golf, really just started up (played a few rounds.)

Recently purchased some new (second hand) clubs which are more forgiving than the old ones I was using and it has made a massive improvement.

Got a long way to go and booking lessons in at some point in the future but thoroughly enjoying myself so far! 

Cheers

Steve

    • Tiger's putter is < 500g total weight. Good putters tend to favor lighter putters. That said, I'm a great putter, and mine is over 600g. 😄 
    • With 2 young kids and limited time to play, if I have golf on the schedule and there’s no lightning, I’ll be playing. I wish I could be a little more picky but time constraints tend to force my hand. 
    • As a guilty consumer of social media instruction, I really enjoyed the topic on episode 7. I know it has always hurt my game more than helped and I think it all boils down to the potential for misinterpretation.  I know I’ve been to see @iacas thinking I was doing something beneficial and it actually had the adverse  effect. I still enjoy scrolling through some of the instruction posts but have found it better to take notes and ask the professional before trying to implement anything. 
    • My dad had an original Ping Anser that I got refinished. Ping only charged $20 so I figured why not. It’s hard to believe the weight difference between my current gamer (counterbalanced Edel with 25g weight) and the Anser. I’m going to throw a new grip on the Anser and try it out.  I know this is a huge difference and just from a few practice swings the lighter putter doesn’t feel near as stable. I highly doubt it will outperform the Edel but wanted to know what’s everyone’s experience with a lighter vs heavier putter?
    • Right - better can mean different things depending on the situation. It might mean scoring better or it might mean closer to a functional swing (which in the moment might be scoring worse).
