With a name like "KASH MONEY" you better start living up to the hype!

It seems that your anxious for som tips or instruction, I would say to focus on your weight shift - shift to your right instep on the backswing and focus on a smooth transition to outside (left) of your left foot on the follow through. Focus on balance at the finish as well.

My conclusion after skimming this thread is that Adam and Iacis have way too much time on there hands!

In my opinion neither swing looks very good. Just kidding, both look good to me

Golf is a sport that you can practice and get worse instead of better. I'm also a long hitter, I have a fast transition at the top of my swing so generally I can just slow it down and get back on track, but this game is frustrating. Hang in there

I'm also a minority, I love my R11S with the 60g stock stiff shaft. The clubhead "feels" heavier to me than any other drivers going back to my Nike square Sumo. My main joy of the R11S is the way the ball comes off the clubhead, at first I bought RBZ but didnt gain any distance and took it back the R11S and quickly found out the R11S is completely different club, not just the add'l adjustability.

How do you know anything about me or proving something to me? You really must know everything

Adam can you recommend a site or a book that teaches the swing plane and club face position through impact that you've mentioned in this thread and others?

Bubba Watson also said to release for a draw and "hold off" for a fade, in the new Golf Digest. This is why I'm having a hard time believing all these new ball flight rules. It seems that it is scientist and forum bloggers saying that the guys that are actually doing it (Bubba) are wrong. I'm not trying to bash, I'm looking for someone to convince me because it seems everyone on the forum believes the laws, however who are we to tell Bubba Watson how you hit a fade or draw?

So do you think your swing is now steep, is that what you're implying?

Its OK dont worry about it

Golf Digest stated that ALL of Nike's staffers are using them. I didnt think they had a choice if they are contracted to play a certain brand. Here in FL, United States, they are $45-$48 a dozen, the same as Pro V1's and Penta's, however the Nike's and Penta's are constantly having buy 2 get 1 free sales, essesntially knocking the price down to $30 or so per dozen. So for close to half the price, as a 7 handicapper, I have been and will continue to play Nike's. I'm kind of a power player so I usually lose at least one ball per round, maybe 2 or 3, and fortunatly my lost ball count is not definitve on how I score so I dont care, it would just get expensive playing $4 Pro V1's. Also, the Pro V1's dont seem to last for me, after 9 holes they look like they've been sitting at the bottom of a lake for 2 years.

KEEP IN MIND: Golf may be the one sport where you can put in the time and actually get worse instead of better. Problems I've had throughout my life: 1. Practicing the wrong thing. 2. Getting a lesson, practicing what I've been taught and then over-doing it and developing a new problem. 3. Poor instructor/teacher - might help you hit balls better that paticular day but not necessarily for the long haul. I've finally seen drastic improvements in my game when I've gotten older and wiser, I read alot and disect what info pertains to me. Use video, this site is great. Use video and compare it to guys on TV, generally you can see drastic differences.

I think the super mega slow mo - NBCeee vision videos at the beginning are hard to decipher

I have the R9 TP Motore Fujikura shaft for sale (65g stiff). I sold the R9 but the guy didnt want to wait until my wife got home with the extra shaft in her car, I had both the normal stiff shaft and also the TP shaft. I'd give it to you for $20 if you want it, I have pics if you want to give me your email.
