  1. ok to things i miss my old garage driving range (same mat nd tarp set up) but they one thing to keep in mind is to try to press the ball through the turf but even before that find the bottom of your swing by taking a practice swing and find where the divot you created and right were that divot starts is the ideal ball position for tht club u used to swing with hope this hellps ..Chris
  2. this is the exact reason i went to blades yourbest bets are mizuno's but another good options are progressive cavity sets or some players cavities like the (x-forged callaway's they are great btw)
  3. define a hard to hit driver? isnt like their "inverted cone" thing supposed to help tht or suttin
  4. i like to keep it simple and say if i hit a good drive and i have a seven iron or more into most par 4's on the course haha
  5. the thing that concerns me about the vokeys is tht they are cast and cast=inconsistancy that is a very important aspect in wedge play imo i would look for a forged wedge
  6. hahaa nice post i remember i saw like i think it was jim mcleen (or mclean im not sure at the moment haha) recreate tht and made some dude swing with a pane of glass haha thts y i hate swing "gurus" they are just well annoying
  7. i was gonna get some cci's buti couldnt find any forged sets and i didnt wanna order anything haha
  8. hopefully we wont have any bonehead espn guy yapping on and on. By the way where are they havin the open this year
  9. i switch off between players cavity and blades. But ive been hitting blades since i was 13. Im just gonna go out and say it if you want to learn how to hit a golf ball the right way just get blades. Only reason i went to players cavity was becuase my dad would not stop nagging about the blades "lack of forgiviness" . If you want percision and the ball to obey your evey command then get blades. If you want a mix with a tad of forgiviness get the players cavities. I would reccomend some mizunoor titleist for blades. And as for players cavitie only way to go is callaway x forged belive me hope this helps ..Chris
  10. i personaly find no use to a "lob wedge" the highest i go is 58 and thats even to much sometimes. And as for bounce it should not matter if you have a grinded sole becuase you can change the bounce by tweaking your grip
  11. i dont have any really not on the course anyways. The only thing that bothers me is when non golfers dont appreciate how golf is the hardest game in the world no jokes about it.
  12. 75 (par 71) and a one under 34 on 9 to many birde opportunites not converted
  13. callaway x-forged wedge with mac daddy groves enough said
  14. this sorta seams like a oxymoron haha. But in all seriousness the shortgame can take a toll on your handicap
  15. i need a house in sawgrass so i can play all year haha. Its quite cold up in new englad at the moment. A Fti-Q and victory red blades and last but not leas. MAKE THE PRO V1 COME BACK!!!!!!
  16. you wont be disappointed
  17. i dont think it is a big deal but they should lighten up on the whole altered driver thing. They made it seam like he did it on purpose. I mean altered driver sounds kind of synical haha
  18. this was very unfortunate. He is one of my fav players. When i first herd this i was shocked but now that i got the full story im not. Hopefully people get the whole story and it will eliminate the suspition that people had about it and restore the respect that he deserves. I mean a altered driver sounds kind of synical ahha.
  19. thanks everyone everything is starting to all come together but i jus wanna clear up on suttin i worded wrong. When i said i hit a occasional cut i mean that i can hit a fade at will its not a problem. The reason i said that is to say i hav no problem shaping the shots but long irons get out of controll. ..Chris
  20. answering your question on higher ball flight i would recommend trying to move the ball up in your stance and releasing a tad bit earlier Hope this helps ..Chris
  21. hey everyone im havin a little crisis here. I consider my self a good ball striker. My swing is built on a very strong grip my swing is almost identical to Boo Weekley's. (see here http://www.youtube.com/?v=4LDvfhAZe4I ) I hit my short irons very far and accurate. I belive this is becuase how i de-loft of the club like they mention in the video. But when is get to my long irons 5 and below occasionally but always at the wrong times i produce a very low ball flight. I always play a draw and the occasional cut. But any thing below a 5 is a SNAP!!. I think this is because i take so much loft of the club. I can get get away with it with 6-and up but im starting to think i cant get away with it with 5 and below. Does my theory sound like it makes sense or am i just going crazy!! I appreciate the insight ..Chris EDIT I had to change the video because the one i wanted could not be imbeded. Although he is hitting a knockdown in this video he still uses simmilar concepts on his full swing
  22. This is a must have. Every high profile instructor's concepts are derived from Mr. Hogans book. My grandfather taught me how to play golf and this book is his bible. I belive it was givin me a soild foundation and solid efficient swing(at least i like to thing so haha). Everything is simplified beautifly using modern concepts and insight from the best ball striker of all time. And Mr. Hogan's five lessons IMO is the biggest contribution to golf litterature at this moment in time ..Chris
  23. ive hit a few balls with these persoanlly i didnt really like them. Mainly becuase i felt the top line was on the bulkier side for what they condsider a "players club" If a players club is what your looking for i recomend some mizunos or some callaway x-forged irons. hope this helps ..Chris
  24. i had a 83 yesterday par 71 i played bad 44 on front 39 on the back i was happy about that but i broke my driver in the process (a triple on a par 3 then a snap hook dosent go well with me) ironicly last hole was a par 5 (broke on 16th hole) i still birded tho it was a crazy day ha
  25. Tiger 08 dude best game ever created
