I have been trying for about a week and a half. My good shots are really good but I hit to many ugly ones. Should I keep the faith and continue or revert back to the old swing?

If you enjoy watching the LPGA I would recommend the Duramed Futures tour. Most are young and just learning golf at the professional level. There are some older players who move to LPGA and back. You'll see good golf and some bad. But you'll learn if you study these swings and strategies. I've even seen an LPGA player caddying for a futures star. These girls can play. I am used to the women at the club and it's real golf to see these young players who prefer to carry their own bags.

Again! I am a senior. I play a senior shaft That's A flex it has 2.1 degrees of torque. The torque is not due to the flex. it is due to the resistance to twisting. Stiffer shafts do reduce slicing and hooking. Stiffer shafts also reduce distance. My thinking is if I have to give up distance for straightness then why don't I just swing slower and straighter. Go shopping for shafts and notice the price increase as torque is less and less. There is no price increase for stiffness.

Winders is correct. I am a senior and play a senior flex but it has only 2.1 degrees of torque. A shaft with a lot of torque can be forgiving but it also can get you into trouble when you increase swing speed. When you are fitted for a club it is important that you swing at your normal tempo. Ever notice that when you hit the 3 wood off the deck it goes straight and when off a tee you tend to draw it.

I know that this reflects a shallow person but I look at the leader board and if some of the top 20 names are recognizable then I'll watch but when a majority are from other nations then I know that the US lady golfers are not prepared to compete and I lose interest.

too much tape will change your swing weight so measure first. build up too much butt weight, you'll need a tip plug to counter it.

I have assembled a lot of drivers. It is my experience that if a shaft is too stiff the swinger cannot "load" the shaft and a right and right shot occurs. This is not due to torque but due to stiffness of the shaft. The slicing is probably due to a decending contact with the teed ball. try teeing it higher and move it a bit forward and hit it on the up swing ala Nicklaus

once in France

I prefer larger grips on wedges to avoid being handsy

Doesn't win either

There is PGA and there is LPGA. The female who qualified for the Hartford used up tees. You going to use ladies tees at Augusta. Why don't you just cancel the Master's. It's their tournament. They started it and they run it. Start your own tournament and see if you have waiting list for tickets.

Paula had a great career as an amateur while Natalie was making calendar shoots.
