  1. So I have noticed lately that my right thumb comes off the club at some point and i usually off the grip at impact. Not sure what is going on here. I am right handed by the way.
  2. I use a Taylor Made Ghost Spider and really do not understand the method or reasoning for adjusting the weights. Does anyone have a good article to explain it? I understand more weight make heavier etc but any reasoning behind putting more or less weight in the toe versus the heel and vice versa?
  3. They have them for sale at shop but don't ship them.
  4. Looking for a yardage book for Pine Barrens at World Woods in Florida. Does anyone know a website that sells course yardage books? I tried eBay and Amazon etc. no luck anywhere. Thanks.
  5. Ok, I did not mean no hands at all. What I was looking for was a tip to change my grip to help reduce the wrists in my stroke. Hopefully that will help get a responsive reply :)
  6. What are the schools of thought on how to eliminate or help quiet the hands with different grips, like cross handed versus the claw, etc?
  7. Look at head. It moves back away. My miss is toe shot.
  8. Well that is all I got right now.
  9. I've been Playing Golf for: 35 years My current handicap index or average score is: 2.3 My typical ball flight is: draw The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: toe shots the red line is center of head at address look how head moves away what is fix?

  10. I currently have Titleist 710 AP1s with Dynamic Gold s300 shafts. I already use lamkin crossline mid size grips with 2 wraps
  11. Club fitters, I wanted to get some expert insight. I use extended clubs because I am very tall.. I am at 1.75 over standard. This makes the clubs incredibly heavy. It becomes more of an issue with the wedges. Sometimes its like swinging a shovel. Setting aside any issue with the length, lets assume that the length is a perfect fit, what are options to deal with on the weight issue? I am kicking around the idea of going to a graphite shaft in wedges. I am a 1 handicap and with a high swing speed. Driver is around 113mph. Thoughts?
  12. Lie angles were set as well and bent accordingly. My wedges are stock.
  13. Hello, I am 6'6 so I have extended irons. 1.75" over standard. I have been fitted for those. I am 1 handicap. My Gap, SW and LW are all standard length. Should i match all my wedges to the same length as my PW? I take huge divots with my wedges. I think my tendency is to go down after it because club is short. Thoughts?
  14. I am struggling with the flat stick. The more I work my stroke, the more my eyes watch the putter go back to make sure the stroke is good. I think this is causing some issues. Thoughts? Where should eyes be focused during stroke? What do you think of looking at the hole during stroke?
  15. its a putter and the guy that extended it said it would take weight away from the head and put more weight in the grip. Seems counter intuitive to add more weight to grip now.
  16. I added 2.5 inches to my putter. How much lead tape should I add and where to counter balance adding length?
  17. Picker?? Seems contrary to your screen name...LOL
  18. Help! I am a digger. That is my swing. That is how I play. So, I am sure its related to my swing being steep but I am awful out of the fairway bunkers. Its either terribly fat or such a thin shot it will hit the smallest of lips. Any advice on how to improve this other than don't hit it in the bunker?
  19. Also, looks like my weight is either staying on my left side or I am shifting it there instead of turning
  20. My miss is a top shot recently with tee ball which sucks and my divots are far out in front of the ball. I am thinking I am not getting enough back/shoulder turn on backswing. Thoughts? Videos:
  21. Thanks! I will check these out.
  22. I am currently in physical therapy as I have been suffering from back pain but spasms on left side. It appears we have pinpointed the issue as a intercostal muscle strain on the left side. Also, my hip flexibility is awful. For example, if I sit in a chair and try and put my left foot on my right knee, I cannot get it there without using my hands to pull up my foot. I can do the right foot to left ankle with no help. So, if I am not able to open up the left hip they are saying I am then using the back to complete swing which is not good. So, does this make sense? Any insight on how to improve it? Also, what kind of misses would you expect to see with golf shots if not opening and rotating well with left hip? Thanks.
  23. Instructors, Can having an open stance cause more toe shots? I tend to set up open but lately my misses are off the toe. I have been tinkering with lie angle but I am thinking it may also be caused by open stance. Thoughts?
  24. Posture issue meaning hands are too low?
  25. The first two were 6 irons, next two were 9 irons. Need to go flatter? How much?
