  1. Swing Like A Pro, one of the best fundamental books ever!
  2. golfsmith.com/cm
  3. i use to use utri tour, at my golf galaxy, black max is 30 buks and nike platinum is 30 buks and utri tour is only 20 buks. Cheaper balls, I do like the srixon balls, all of them are good and the hi spin goes a mile, hrx is very good to0. Also if you want yardage bridgestone is where to go, if you want spin go get utri tours, precepts are nice. The HX hot is really far, i mean far, but it spins like a molitor.
  4. what do honshin clubs look like, i know kasko and some other azn brands but thats about it.
  5. yeah what he said lol no, short swing means better tempo, quicker tempo, less mistakes in backswing, better impact and stronger finish. The pros are doing it, why not u. John Daly dosen't count because hes a big fatass (I still like him). He dosen't exercise or any of that proffesional golfing crap, he just sits and occasionally stands up to hit the ball, lol.
  6. 170 yards to the hole, in a forest, there are two trees right in front of me to my left and right, making a distance of 1-2 feet in width and 9 feet in front of that, there is a 20 foot ttree. I hit my 7 iron, shoot it straight up, land 2 inches from the pin. I blew the ball into the hole, so is it then a eagle, lol, jk, birdie.
  7. yes unless you putt like arnold palmer or jack
  8. I have 690.cb, they are a little harder then the mp30s but feel much better, may be they might let your grow a natural swing.
  9. Besides my erc from callaway, the sonartec have the best technology in them, I hit them like 14 yards farther then the titleist on average and the r7 tp wood is so much better then the r7 steel. It's lighter and the shaft is better. My erc is still the best of them all, low ball flight and it spins like a muther. Also distance and consistency is amazing!!!!!
  10. Since I play for dough between my friends, showing off is out of the question unless its a wedge shot. My driver, is the most unconsistent, then it is my putter, and then my irons but my wedges are on a totally different level. I carry 2 wedges my 56 and 60 because thats all I need. I have this park at my place and I go into the baseball fields and practice my wedge shots for couple of hours every other day because I can't get to a place with real grass ranges. I think cg10 has the most spin out of any wedge and also is the softest and it works on hard balls too. I spun a top flite about 4 ft when I had a 70 yard shot, I was impressed spinning top flites.. Eric is right, why would you hit down on the ball, the ball will be loaded with more spin then ever because of the compression your giving it. You should try these cg10's though, they have amazsing spin control. THe vokeys I have tried has a demo once, when I hit it loose, the ball just spun back, I didn't like that because I tried to hit a shot with no spin, u know. The cg10's give you spin when you need them and none when you don't. Also I use the nike one platinum, these spin like living #$*@. I hit a 3 iron and it took a 2 step bounce and held it's spot. That's about it. Also you should get one of those groove sharpener/cleaners from golfsmith. They are really nice and get's rid of the annoying stuff in your grooves fast. HAHAH, this was so long.
  11. no, for example, tiger woods and jay haas are both like 5 degrees short to parallel at the top. If the pros don't have to be, then why do you have to be? If your close to parallel like -5 degrees, that is real good because you have a sense of timing, power, knowing where the club is and target.
  12. Black max is a solid ball, personally I don't like it because it goes to straight and not enough side spin which is humongous plus with driver but thats it. Also I hate the dimple pattern, science vs aesthetics, I go with more aesthetics, why do you think i chose 690.cb, beautiful club. The sound is quite annoying, but besides those silly mental facts, blackmax is good as anyball out there execpt nike one black (far, great in the wind, super spin, nice looks)
  13. I see a similarity with tiger's game and furyk's. Putts did not roll but thats too bad. I think Baddely is a good player, not as good as Furyk but he still is a pro, isn't he. Also Baddely has some talent and distance which Furyk dosen't have. So you can say Baddely won but.... Isn't Furyk's best stat basically putting? He sure isn't known for his distance off the tee. So it can be a gag. Final - Baddely wins, Reason: Furyk can't always be an exceptional putter, unless he is not human.
  14. i guess someone on ebay messed up because the week after i bought it, the same seller was selling buy it now for 450 instead of 350, funny isn't it, online selling is a small game of numbers. I got it on ebay.
  15. I know when I am releasing to early, I hit the ground before the ball and the ball has this little floater for like 140 yards or something, disgusting. The way I fixed it is by 1. trying to straighten up my left arm at the top of the swing and trying to keep it straight going down and 2. visualizing a full upperbody rotation with the lowerbody solid, these two work well with "me." Also I would like to say don't try to shorten your backswing and cocking more with your wrist, unless your tiger woods, you probably will start cocking your hands the wrong way or just screw up your swing, over top for example. Another tip is right before you start your swing, look at a spot 2 inches in front of your ball and try to hit it on the way down so your wrists are bowed through impact and you have a better chance of maintaining your wrist angle. The dangers are that you might reverse pivot instead of moving your weight right in the swing or on the down swing, make your lower body move dramatically in front of you creating a really ugly active lower body on the down swing. That's what I think is the right thing to do.
  16. I really think you might benefit from other irons like the slingshot from Nike, or the MX-23 from mizuno and even the di6 from wilson. They are all nice
  17. I think becky will win because she just seems so relaxed, I think it will be between her and that chunky girl. I think kristi or the australian girl was the most consistent though, I can't believe she got out so early, she was kind of like bart from bbII. Anyways I have a comment on that model girl. She looks like the devil or some deranged psychopath child rapist. lol. hahahahahahahahahahahah, but she is pretty scary looking and has this wierd voice, also if you listen to what she says, she has a horrible attitude problem. lol, i get pissed when i see peopole like her, plus her little poem was the most retarded thing i heard of in a while. OMG, i hate her, she's like the most retarded, golf deficient, scary looking, emotional, retard in the world, oh well, at least i know others don't like her either.
  18. Tiger woods my uncle my self john huh, for get all those other pros, you only need tiger, and my uncle is so annoying and brown nosering?, that he tiger would rip the ball everytime. I would play on my home course just because when ever you hit over 300 yards, its usually in rough or in water, lol. Plus I like feeling like I own the place until tiger owns me, damn.

    Poker Chips

    HAHAHAHA, man i'm the biggest highschool gambleer in the world. Not really. Well I use to golifng like everyday last year with my friend John Huh, he's quite amazing (shot 72, 73 at cog hill) but that wasn't the point. He was a poor kid and he some nice clubs(983k driver, pt13, 2imizuno mp14, 3-pw kasko, sw,lw,cg10black) but that was about it. Since he had no money he always wanted to gamble and I gave in. He still owes me like 200 dollars because we would bet sometimes 5, 10 or even 30 buks on a hole but at the end of the day it would be like a 5 dollar difference and he would buy me lunch and mickey d's orsomething, but when i started playing with him i was a 20 handicap, i went down drastically to a 11 handicap just from this stupid gambling. I think its a good idea in my personal point of view but that might be bad because competition will be harder for me. Well I say, bring it on
  20. Graphite will be easier on your body and I think it will help you break 100 because you will be more consistent and hit the ball further. The salesperson probably wanted to imply that graphite will be benefitial for your health, when he said back. Also try other irons like the taylor mades, or the srixons or mizunos. The mizuno mx 23 goes really far and is very light so I recommend that to anyone that isn't tiger woods, lol. Try some of the other game improvement clubs.
  21. Shot a wierd 75 today. I shot 42 on the front nine and a 33 on the back nine, it shouldhave been a 70 today. The story is, I was blocking the ball like crazy with my driver on the front nine, dehydrated and chunking the ball like crazy, I was not focused. I got a donut, a nutrigrane bar and a monster at the turn. Andd BOOM, I was super man. I actually hit a couple of thin shots, no chunking, I holed out for a birdie after a wild drive from 40 yards and Had 5 birdies in a row. I also airmailed a green straight into a drink. It was 120 to the front with a head wind, I hit a 9 iron, bye bye. I actually flushed it really good on that one. The front nine wasn't that good though, I think I hit it ob on the first hole for a double and a couple of bogeys and another double at the ninth. I was grinding like crazy today. I think I tried 3 different balls 2day also, nike plat(old) prov1, and b330s(airmailed). Also i think it was 90 degrees at noon, omg, 3 days ago it was like 20 degrees. My body didn't adapt well. This was a hell of a day for me. Anyone know how to keep the ball low with a driver, The ball usually floats with a 20 yard fade and a 260 yard carry. Im looking for a lower traj, that goes 250 yards of carry and 30 yards of roll not 260 carry and like 1 yard roll, that pisses me off so much.
  22. If you want to know a good general rule for ball position, little lower body movement benefits from the ball being in the back of the stance, for the tour pro or active legs kinda person, you want the ball forward. Also you will hit the ball higher either buy putting the ball up in ur stance about 3 inches or back in ur stance 1/2 inch. the 1/2 inch will put a good zip, a solid feeling, and most importantly backspin.
  23. What's the difference between the old and new nike plats. They are only 30.99 in my golf galaxy(the old ones) and the new ones are 39.99. Whats the big difference, I need balls fast cuz Im to my last 3 sleeves of prov1s, and I did try a sleeve of the b330s, I didn't like the look, the feel was average, but the performance was very similar to the prov1s. The major difference was, I'm not use to its spin, the extra 5 yards in driving and the lower ball flight. It was pleasant but my eye was not suited for it. I think the nike platinum is the highest ball flight ive ever used and has the best distance control, it really does, I'm not sure. I'll go to golf galaxy in 2 days and Ill choose between prov1, nike old plat, nike new plat, b330 s, or zurs. Ive tried the zurs and it goes really far too and the feeling is identical to the prov1. Also It's got a nice, classic balata sound to it during impact but spin was pretty low compared to the platinum. I think i should buy the old plats because the are 30 buks but I want to change my ball to a new one so keep coming with the reviews, ty.
  24. I think the reason you didn't like the mp30's because the shaft were probably not good for you. They are really pleasant with the flighted rifles and feel solid. Anyways the LT2 are excellent choice as well, I hope you like them P.S. Are you going to get the stock rifle shafts with the lt2's, they are really nice
