I went the course today and did pretty bad, Old drivers are that non playable ? or is there some fix I need to make em work.

Thanks for your reply Shangia ! I really appreciate it. Got it, so it has to be hit solidly in the right sweet spot Lemme try the hybrids, hope they are easy to hit with So if I master the old driver, I can do some serious damage with the new ones Blisters are on my right hand thumb, right hand's index finger, right hands' ring finger - mostly right hand affected Ok, exhaling giver me more control - atleast in tennis, lemme stick to that Lemme pick an entry level one and move on from there Thanks !!

Hey, I am a tennis player and went to a driving range for the first time 30 days back as it was raining. Using my dad's old golf set, I have now started to develop a keen liking for this game. Till now, I have been to the Driving Range 15 times, done 2 rounds of Mini Golf Course, Completed 18 holes 2 times and getting to know new terms day by day. Done a birdie 3-4 holes at par , multiple bogeys , lost 3 balls. I have some questions that might be silly, but I could not find the right people to answer them. I have an old MacGregor set - 13 clubs - small headed woods and drivers - How different would the new gen irons be ? These are steel shafts are quite sturdy in feel How much should the club length be - some said these was ladies set, a coach said these are fine, I have hit some pro shots using 9-7-4 irons. Hitting with a 3 or 4 iron gives a jerk on my arm and doesnt feel all that soft. I dont want to injure myself but need to ask if 3/4 irons are supposed to feel like that ? 9/PW/SW/7 sometimes I dont even feel I have hit and the ball just lands where I want it to. The Driver and Woods, I have zero accuracy with these, small heads, I say a small prayer - adjust the stance , and swing without knowing where will the ball go. Are the old ones that bad ? I tried a friends big headed Driver, and the ball went so happily on the fairway about 220 yards. I have abrasions/blisters on my hand at points where I grip the club - Grips on these are thin too, I went to a local pro shop and told him the trouble, he said to try a fatter grip on one of the clubs and go ahead after trying that out. Starters have this issue ? How do you guys breath while swinging ? I usually breath out before taking the swing - any particular way to do this ? I am on a budget and still developing a liking for this game. But I do want to improve and the next step is getting a used Driver - Any tips on that. I have recommendations for Taylormade and Titliest but there are so many models and specifications that I dont get to know the right worth. Apologies if I am asking this out of place. I'm budding but I am very keen to take it to the next level. Ankit P.S. I'll attach some pics for a visual assessment
