  1. I have a really good hand eye coordination and have acceled at all sports, but I also practice my butt off, so yes I would also like an option for both.
  2. First off, you are most likely not in the top players at these tournys... right? I figure that the top guys are shooting around 75 consistently?? WHich is probably making you a little intimidated and looking at other players before tee off. What I would recommend is of course taking one shot at a time, with a consistent preshot routine, and not worrying about anyone except yourself before tee off and even during the round. You sound like some of my friends in highschool... they did the same thing you are doing. Since you said that your entire game is affected, then most likely you are overly stressed and worried about your score. Just make sure to relax before each shot and concentrate on your target. Good luck
  3. Love it! But then again, mine is ported and bent to 59*
  4. when you straighten your leg, you will loose power and consistency. use that to help coil your body on the back swing, and uncoil your lower body on the downswing
  5. those are just normal balls found in a lake or someones backyard and cleaned up a bit. They are used. thats all
  6. well, you could try a mixture of different things. I know I used to soak my clubs in coke to remove the finish.. takes a couple days but worked like a charm on my scotty. Use something with an acidic base. Your clubs are cast i assume? not forged?
  7. getting them refinished somewhere (ie.. Iron Factory) is quite costly and very time consuming. I would say that it averages about 1/2 the price of new clubs but the turn around time is up to 2 months or more. Not good if you dont have a backup set. Other than cleaning regularly, I am not sure of any type of restoring you can do yourself... unless you own a sandblaster lol
  8. I went from double digit to scratch in one summer... It just takes wayy more dedication than most people can handle or care to attempt.
  9. That is exactly how I see it. I tee it low enough that you cant even notice the ball is on a tee. But as ^ said, with a tee you can give yourself a consistantly perfect lie.
  10. Congrats! I cant remember my first eagle. But kept it up and they will come more often.
  11. I agree with the last post. But what can anyone do except let them say what they want. I will give most the benefit of the doubt, until I have a reason to say otherwise. Another thing to watch out for is the younger golfer... Most of the guys I play with can all hit the ball 300 and even most highschool kids I know bomb it that far. Needless to say most are also playing military golf.
  12. so based on your "net" drives... then I avg. about 340 or so. It also depends on where you play because I played in Denver and All of my distances were 30 yards off or more on every club. So, based on your "net" drives and if i played again in Denver, then I avg. about 380 off the tee.
  13. I agree, and make sure that you use something (a club on the ground usually) to make sure that you are aligned properly. Sounds like a good plan for sure. Also might want to toss in some short game practice...
  14. I have the 907 D2 in 8.5* and with the V2 in an X flex. I agree it is an amazing club! I would get the same exact club you demoed unless you just want a slightly lower ball flight... and in that case, get the 8.5 Good luck!
  15. haha, I was about to post the same thing but you beat me to it!
