Actually, I just found out the ball was not far enough in the front of my stance. I knew this simple rule jeez golf 101.... I put the ball an inch further in my stance, basically lined up with the inside of my left foot... And amazing results. I tested out the Adams speed line F11 stiff shaft, the R11, and the rocketballZ driver stuff shaft 9.0 degree. It was an instant change and I was cranking the RBZ 324 was the furthest. Definitely hit the RBZ the most consistent and was able to turn it over from right to left pretty good. Super pumped to take this to the course and try to go from a 9.8 to a 6.0 this season!

Hey golfers, This is only my second post on here, but after receiving an email asking me "Where have ya been?" from The Sandtrap, I figured i would make another comment. So after 3.5 years of golfing I realized i was gripping the club with a weak grip. Basically, both of my thumbs were pointing straight down the shaft which i was told usually results in a fade shot. That was my natural ball path...a high fade. I recently strengthened my grip and moved my left thumb to the right side of the shaft and put my right thumb on the left side of the shaft. It feels really strange, but i am going to stick with it to see how it pans out. Now my natural ball path is a high draw, which i am certainly happy with. This new grip is making me hit each of my irons about 15 yards further. It is working quite well with every one of my clubs except my DRIVER. The driver is my worst club but I am determined to start hitting it better in 2013. I guess the new grip has something to do wit hit, but are there any tips for how i can straighten out my drives.... I feel like i either blast one right down the center or i hit a slice and sometimes over draw the tee shots. Again this does not happen to me with any other club except the driver. Any tips or hints are greatly appreciated. The last round i played i shot 5 over on the back and 2 over on the front for a 78. If i can get more accuracy with my driver i know it would only help me be able to score better. Thanks everyone! -Banks

Hey cooke119... Well, I have been practicing a lot and am looking to get much better. I have broken 80 3 times and am planning to take another 3-5 lessons this season. I guess I just want to give myself the best chance to play well. And, I do kind of want a new look for my irons but also a bit better quality I presume. I have heard that mizuno make some of the better irons. What type were you swinging in the store?

Hey everyone, This is my first post on this forum so i definitely appreciate any feedback. I have only been playing golf for 3.5 years but i am a 10 handicap. I currently have Burner 09' irons and am looking to get potentially get a new set of irons. I strike my irons pretty well and usually tend to hit them high. I have swung the Callaway Razr black iron, the Razr tours and the taylormade rocketblades....I kinda liked the Razr blacks. Any feedback or tips to which irons i should scope out? Thanks a bunch! -Banks
