notsohard replied to mvmac's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
so we are talking $650 an iron without Faldos name on them.....i wonder what special price with his name engraved....you are guaranteed to be a scratch golfer if you buy them ....but i do like them -

KBS 90 Shafts versus Dynamic Gold SL Shafts
notsohard replied to PRO V's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
here's a curve ball....why not graphite shafts to suit how you load the club.....a better choice, do it before the pro's commence using graphite in their irons... and then you will truly be able to tell your buddies your not a sheep -
or you can hit a knuckle fade.....but you better have a decent swing ..align your body to where you want the ball to start ..align the clubface between where you want the ball to start and the primary target, so the ball can land and run out to the primary target ..position the ball slightly forward ..and swing with an in to out swing

Is the Golf Equipment Business one big scam?
notsohard replied to Rick Martin's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
eg:...someone has to pay for Rory $10-20mill a year to use nike .....the consumer who believes that nike clubs will lower their handicap and make them swing like a pro/scratch golfer, instead of getting golf lessons....marketing guys are educated in the pysche of man, they know how to put an object in front of him and make him believe its for him, its called brilliant advertising. -
Push Fade (Could this be over the top) Lie angle?
notsohard replied to tazrestling27's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
turn your hips rather than sliding them laterally, and you will be able to straighten your lead leg, rather than having it bowed at the finish. dont force your weight transfer trying to hit the ball hard causing the slide. -

test was only with the balatas.....modern ball would be interesting, i know of guys who use persimmon with the modern ball and have excellent results. -

not so much as a scam, but more like snake oil....in regards to the distances. a test with a 693 persimmon with titleist 100 balatas from the 80's were going just as far as a 2012 titanium head driver, and the longest was 287 yards with the persimmon.....not much has changed in distance, just feel, looks, and forgiveness. -
Handle Location Checkpoints
notsohard replied to Beachcomber's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
No im not, because parrallax doesnt exist here, parrallax must have a viewpoint, a subject...which we have here....and a distant background, which is of no use here because we are not trying to focus on the golfer with regards to depth of view, the vid-camera used here does not have a rangefinder viewing system where one has to focus on an object and uses infinity....eg: viewing subject left or right of the actual lens and sensor. what you see here in these images is what you see in the viewfinder, its a direct line with the eye over the sensor....the bullshiit theory of parrallax with vid-cams does not exist, when it suits individuals to use it should be shot down.....parrallax is only used to bring a subject into focus. ...and please dont even try using the 2D, 3D rubbish..... wont be long before teachers incorporate such tripe into the golf swing......modern golf is all about money...therefore everyone has an agenda, therefore they will spin whatever they want to fit in their little vortex of goodies to the unassuming public......you only have to listen to the club manufacturers for such stupidity....cheers. -
Making a transition to blades, recommended or not?
notsohard replied to Pasatiempo's topic in Clubs, Grips, Shafts, Fitting
go buy a used 3 iron blade and practice with that, while playing your cavity irons...you'll know after a couple of months. -
Handle Location Checkpoints
notsohard replied to Beachcomber's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
back to the OP. everyone is different, build, hand size, flexibility, leg strength,core strength, weight, equipment, application etc etc. not being simplistic...what you really want to do is know where you and the club+"handle" is at IMPACT . forget the backswing, that does not hit the ball, but if you understand impact and beyond, the backswing will come. look at Furyk, his impact is pure... 2012 ...3rd in scoring averages(to mciiroy and woods)...4th in driving accuracy and NOT once is he "on plane"..... -

Handle Location Checkpoints
notsohard replied to Beachcomber's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
handle locations are useless if your body is not functioning correctly.......and everyone is different. ...and forget the plane.....are any of the greats below "on plane" to the ball on their DS?.....NO. -

Struggles of a former short game master!
notsohard replied to newgolfaddict's topic in Instruction and Playing Tips
no short cuts in golf....practice with right technique, and more importantly for the short game, feel and touch, comes only with practice....once you have this, you can hit the ball from anywhere in your stance. in the short game...steer the club is FEAR....swing it....cheers.
