  1. 84... Went 12 over through 8 holes and then played the last 10 even.. First time out in 5 days and it really showed.. Found the correct club path and swing again on the back tho.
  2. I don't think I want a jumbo. Or the ultra slim. If probably go for something in the middle. And I like the more rounded feel so I would probably go with a super stroke over the tiger shark
  3. Do you feel it effects you ability to hit the line you want at all? Cuz I want to make sure I can keep it on line lol
  4. Thinking about putting one on my putter.. I've felt my friends but he's right handed. I really like the feel of holding it but not sure how I will hit putts with it? Anyone have any opinions on them?
  5. I also get pain in my hand when playing. I swing lefty and its my left hand that hurts (bottom hand). I have a pretty strong grip over the top of the club to hook the ball more and I feel like I get pain because of this. My hand begins to hurt taking practice swings sometime in my round.. Then I block it out during my swing.. It is in my knuckles and it feels like I jammed my fingers and are hard to move them.. It's not in my palm at all or on top. Just my fingers.. Not sure what this could be.
  6. I have no trouble getting the ball in the air so a 4w sounds just like my hybri to me.. I have the 910h by titleist. But I'm really liking the x hot by callaway. Not sure if I wanna shell out the money for it yet.. Still recovering from buying my irons
  7. My highschool team is a little above average for the schools around us. We have 4 guys that break 80 consistently and 1 that can go under if he's playing well
  8. The 4w still go around 250? My hybrid is 17 degree so idk about a 4w
  9. Hit an older used exotics 3 wood at golf galaxy tonight.. Compared it to my 3 wood.. Also hit the callaway x hot.. Carried mine about 225 and rolled about 240.. X hot flew 235 and rolled to 255 consistently. Exotics had similar numbers to the x hot.. Feeling the x hot but may get the shaft cut down because it feels whippy
  10. I looked at that one. I like the way it sits and it has a really hot face. Also like the ping g25. I'll see which i can find cheaper
  11. I'm in the market for a new 3 wood.. My old r11 is just getting less appealing to me every round. The loud noise and ding it makes is pretty annoying. And I don't like the way the adjustable sole plate makes it sit higher. I'm sorta looking at the titleist 913 or 910 for a better price.. But I just want a more classic looking club that has a nice sound to it and sits below the ball.. I have a medium to high ball flight. Any help is appreciated!
  12. Went from the Spyder to #9 last season.. Hard to get used to but overall better putting. Feel is like butter. Now in playing the Nike method core.. Feels like a dream.. Only had 14 putts today. Pretty nice.
  13. Coach went out on the range with me today.. Turns out I was only a little over the top if anything.. I added an extra hinge in my wrists at the top of my backswing for some reason!?!
  14. I understand the plane and initiating with the hips now.. Watched a few videos and YouTube an think it helped. Anyone know any good drills?
  15. I'm left handed by the way haha. And I will hope to have video this weekend sometime.. I can manage with the fade but its hard to work a draw because sometimes I cast the club over the top and double cross myself
  16. Well I have the disease... Cast out over the top slice divot and nice looking fade.. It's not a 30 yard slice or anything.. Driver around 15 yards on a bad swing.. Few yards on short irons if I don't hit it well. An maybe 5-10 with long irons.. My handicap is a now a 8 and I manage my way around the course with my little slice.. I just would like to see consistency with the driver... More like a 5-10 yard fade. Any thoughts on fixing the over the top motion?
  17. I have played a few rounds this year weather permitting and have been hitting my irons into the stratosphere it seems.. I switched from from s300 to kbs tour stiff shafts. And from mizuno mx 25s to mp 59s.. Is it the shaft or have I just developed a new high ball flight., I used to have a normal to low ball flight.. HELP!
  18. Age: 16 Height: 5' 7' Where are you from: Cleveland, Ohio How Long have you been Playing: 8 years Best Score: 70 (-2) course was 6700 yards tho. Favorite club in the bag: Nike method putter Golf Books / DVD's that have helped you: none Where do you play: anywhere cheap or free Best courses you've played so far: Various country clubs and Firestone (where the WGC Bridgestone is played) Things you enjoy most about golf: Competing Goals for 2013: make the state tournament in Columbus
  19. Winn possibly makes the worst grips in my opinion.. Way to soft and slippery when wet.. I like to play a lampkin cross line on my irons, multi compounds on wedges and driver.
  20. Yeah same thing every time. Either blow my drive or second shot into the left OB then just shit around on the rest of the hole lol.
  21. Anyone have any good mental tips for tournaments or intense rounds to keep a good or great round together down the stretch? I'm notorious for putting together a crazy round and blowing it on the last two holes.. My highschool season I had two 9s on the same par five 9th hole at our home course. I was -1 and -2 going into the last hole each time. Any suggestions?
  22. What do you mean 7 years.. Tiger has been playing for a while lol.. He has been dominating since atleast 2000 in my opinion
  23. I have had a similar expirience. My highschool golf team I'm on has 4 seniors this upcoming season. Myself and my 3 friends that I have grown up playing with. It's going to be our senior season but that's a different story. This past year we were preparing for a tournament and our friends dad always comes out to play with us. He's about 5'6 150 and hits his driver around 210. Usually straight maybe a slight turnover draw. But his short game is unreal. He is a animal on and around the greens. All he does is put and chip after work until dark. He as an addiction.. He practices more than we do.. I saw him hole as many chips in one practice round than I have my whole life.. He probably made 9 chips.. Just little bump and runs that find the bottom. I ended up shooting a 78 from the tips at 6900 or 7000 yards.. And he shot 82 from the tips. I hit my driver 280 or 290. He hits it 210. I was amazed haha. Prolly one of the funniest rounds ever.
  24. Tape the club face and look at ball strikes. You must have a vertical swing(like me) and hit it on the top of the club face. What I do in practice rounds is try and focus on the takeaway and make it low to the ground. I think of it as low and long. Sweep the ball off the tee. Almost think of hunter Mahan. Does a great job of sweeping it. See if that works!
  25. I have recently switched to the 910 d2 from a RBZ driver.. The 910 is the most solid feeling driver out there for me. Love the feeling off the face
