Because of complications from cataract surgery I have one eye that sees short and the other see distance. Wearing glasses is disorienting so I rarely use them. I find it doesn’t affect my swing just following the ball sometimes.

Oh definitely. I shot 2 82s before I shot the 79. One had 3 doubles and the other had 4. All were because of 3 putts. Made me go out and get a new putter since the old one was obviously jinxed.

That’s easy. The putt I hit to break 80. It wasn’t the hardest but it meant I broke 80 so that’s it.

A couple of years ago I played Wailua. I was supposed to play somewhere else and our reservation was screwed up. They took us as soon we got there. Really nice course. Saw and article recently about 30 best munis and there it was. It deserved to be there. I’ll be in Kauai in February and I’ll definitely will go there again and maybe Princeville.

Any Cobra driver from F6 to F8. All three are are very forgiving and won’t cost you an arm and a leg used. I’ve also read good things about the Cobra LTD driver but never tried one.

Not playing ready golf when there is a group right behind. Spending too much time looking for lost balls. Not playing in a tournament and looking over every put like if you make it, you win the Masters. Again if a group is right behind you.

My son is way better than I ever was at every sport but golf, so far. He’s only beaten me once at what he admits was the worst he ever saw me play. I started him playing at about 8 with his older sister. He caught the bug she never did. We haven’t played in probably over a year and a half since he live in another state and the whole COVID thing. Hopefully this summer we’ll get to play again and hopefully he hasn’t caught up. I’m not being competitive or anything like that.

I bought a set of irons from them last year. They were great to work with. I was looking at several different sets and read about them and decided to demo their 739 irons which seemed to fit my game. They performed as well as anything else I was looking at. I live close to their facility and was able to have them fit me. I tried several of their other clubs in their fitting studio and was impressed with their different clubs. I will definitely be buying from them again when the budget allows.

I bought a set of their 739 irons last summer. Those are their game improvement model. I was close to buying a set of F9 and decided to demo these out of curiosity. I honestly really didn’t really notice a difference between the two. Distances and dispersion were very close. The owner Jason has been great to work with. The demo program is pretty easy to use if you want to try their clubs. I had a pro who gave me lessons look at my set and he gave them a try and he felt they were solid.

I use a variation of the 5 iron rule. For me I like to play from where my average drive puts me in the 160 and under for a second shot. At most of the courses that still will leave 3/4 par 4s over 18 that I have to us a long iron or hybrid to reach in 2. Seems challenging enough for me.

Driver seems way out of wack.

Super strike 3.0 also.

Can’t really comment about the driver but like a previous poster said give their demo program a try. I was looking for a new set of GI irons this summer and gave their 739 irons a try. What I found is they were excellent quality and performed as well as anything else I was considering from the big OEMs. Their customer service is first rate. I ended buying their clubs, one because of how they performed and two because of the fantastic way I was treated.

Agreed but I got a lot better using the 1 out of the sand instead of a traditional sand wedge so I think I’ll stick with what’s working.

I have the 1 out. It was a throw in with some other wedges that I purchased. I didn’t try it for about a year. At first I didn’t like it. Once I realized that all I had to do was hit it a little fat and don’t decelerate I started getting out of bunkers no problem. I also love using it for that short shot from just behind the bunker. I rarely end up short in the bunker anymore.
