    Take a look at Royal Precision's line of shafts. They have several that are between R and S flex that should work for you. Don't take that guy's advice. If it feels bad, don't use it.
  3. The only thing is the hybrid. The face on those is slightly closed, which means they may worsen your hook. Try either the 06 or 08 FT Hybrid instead, with neutral weighting.
  4. Gulbis is much hotter than Creamer. Or any other LPGA tour pro. I would say a few of the Asian players on the LPGA tour give Creamer a run for her money as well.
  5. If they're that old, they could be balata, which means you shouldn't hit them with a metal wood. It should say if they are somewhere on the packaging.
  6. They have plenty that are forgiving and for higher handicaps, but there are more forgiving options. Look at the mx series. The lower the number, the more forgiving the iron.
  7. Callaway: Strengths: FT series is made out of space-age materials, long-standing enigineering knowhow backed by a very talented staff. All-around good. Cons: None, really. Titleist: Strengths: Unmatched in the better player's department. Workable, accurate, a ton of custom options, and undoubtably the best looking clubs on the market. Not to mention Scotty and the Pro V1/V1x Cons: Expensive, not much for high handicaps. Cleveland: Strengths: Wedges, decent irons, and the Hi-bore series really does work. Also have a good lineup of balls and putters. Cons: Limited options, Hibore keeps getting uglier. Ping: S: Anser and Eye2 are legendary, all of their clubs are solid. Had the original fitting system. C: No forged clubs, and lime green and orange? Really? TaylorMade: S: Really is No. 1 driver in golf. TONS of options available, and since a new one comes out every year, you can get last years model at an affordable price. Fairway woods are just as good as Drivers. Irons and balls are both decent. C: New stuff costs an arm and a leg, wedges aren't great, and putters are crap. And Mizuno has pretty much been summed up already.
  8. The titleist staff bags are by far the best looking in my opinion. Heavy, though.
  9. I would have to say callaway as a number two and nike as three on tour. Usually the bigger the company, the more balls it has on tour, with the exception of TaylorMade.
  10. Ben Hogan was quoted as saying that anyone is luck to have five perfect shots in any round of golf. That should say a lot.
  11. I'd have to go with Rory, especially in the open championship.
  12. Yes, opening your stance and the clubface and keeping the club square to the target line throughout the swing is a good way to add spin. One thing though. A flop shot will spin backwards about 95% of the time. So technically the first and second shot you mentioned would be the same thing. If you want the ball to hit the green and stop, then do a normal pitch shot using the technique I just described with your highest lofted wedge. Depending on the type of ball you use and the speed of the green it will either stop or roll out a little.
  13. Sounds legit. Just make sure it will fit the hosel of the driver head.
  14. Personally I prefer Mizunos because of the softer feel. They perform similarly though.
