If you're trying to buy distance, the most you'll be able to buy is 5 yards or so. I'll suggest you save your money for now and get a lesson from a good instructor. At 60, you're probably losing some flexibility. An instructor can show you a few tricks to help you get around that which should add some distance.

It's the mandatory use of golf carts that irritates me. They throw off my feel, cause damage to the course, are noisy, they stink (the gas ones), and I have to pay for them! Not cool.

I've been asked this question by lots of other golfers. It seems to be a big source of confusion. I play the ball depending on what I want to do with the shot and what club I have in my hands. Since my swing bottoms out a bit to the right of my left toe, I play my driver off the left toe (to hit up on it), my 4W a bit to the right of the left heel (to sweep it), my irons in the middle (to hit down on them), and my wedges to the right of middle (to prevent the bounce from causing a skulled shot - those hurt!).
