  1. I live in Charleston. If you are looking for reasonable rates and good courses, Charleston National (I am a member), Patriots Point, River Town (LPGA Ginn), and Wild Dunes are going to be you best values. Kiawaha rocks of course but bring the pocket book, $200+ on most and over 4 bills for the Ocean Course. If you want to play Charleston National and need an extra person hit me up, I get a pretty good guest rate. ;)
  2. I am not so sure I totaly agree with that. I have some that seem to last a long time and others which I feel are crap and lasted just a few rounds. I have gone to fulll cord grips on all clubs and do not use a glove a present but if I did, it would be the Nike. I had the best luck there before I went glove-less
  3. This is most likely the best answer here. I have tried many a putter including the Bullseye and foud the best for me is an Anser 4. Hands down, I'll never change, end of story. I feels so right and I have the best touch and most confidance with it, and that is where it lays, confidence.
  4. +1 here. Wrong flex for your swing and you will definently be all over the place. But you can fine tune it to help with ball flight just like mentioned above. Get checked. Best advise.
  5. Nike Tour Blades. JMHO. Best looking irons.
  6. I have a set of Wilson Staff irons, 2-PW from the early 80s that are in near perfect condition and have been played pretty much. I even had them re-shafted about 6 years ago with S300 TT and they will still perfom as good as most others out there. They are not my every round clubs and I rarely pull them out now, but they are the irons I started with and have played many rounds with. Play them maybe once a year just for the heck of it and still to this day get great results.
  7. Yep the yardsales are great sometimes. I picked up a new (never played) R5 TP for $20.00.... that to me was a steal. Girlfriend bought it for her boyfriend, they broke up, she sold his gifts at a yardsale before she moved.
  8. Gotta be the well stuck iron shot. There just seems to be no better feeling. JMO
  9. Kiawah Island, Ocean Course. Hands down the best I have been on.
  10. I actually had this problem. I fixed it by hitting balls with my feet together with a 7 iron. Over and over and over. If you turn your hips in front of your hands in this drill you will fall over. It is still a part of my practice for about the first 5 or 10 minutes of range time. I feel it keeps my timing in order.
  11. I have just one. A 19* to use in place of a 2 iron. I think this is enough for me as I hit my long irons very well.
  12. This is a great club. I have had one since they first came out and hit it very consistantly. Just remember that this club is fairly thin faced and if you tee it too high you may come under it or if it is sitting up high in the fairway or rough be sure to take that into consideration when setting up and making you swing. Tee it low and it is a great short par 4 club for off the tee shots, and even long par 3s.
  13. A better buy than.........?
  14. This could be. I know that if I am hitting a low hook with my driver I have moved it a little too forward in my stance. A few inches back and all is well. Wheather it fades or draws with ball position depends also on your swing path.
  15. ???????.....Laadies and men in their 70s.....???? I guess thats why a lot of pros are hitting them??? ....and they are in good shape and in their 20s and 30s...with negitive handicaps...hummmmmm? I use my 3 iron and a hybrid, it is just a useful utility wood as I see it. I like both clubs. Remember, Cobra came out with what could be called the 1st hybrid, the Baffler.
