Thanks! I'll go practice that today.

So I should rotate my hips faster through impact?

By the way, my misses are usually a huge push or a huge pull hook. Is it something to do with my hips not sliding? I am extremely confused right now.

I hurt my back a couple of months ago and stopped golf for a while. When I returned, I found that my swing looks terrible now. I'm pretty happy with my backswing and downswing, but there is something wrong with the swing after impact, but I don't know exactly what. Tips are appreciated.

^ HAHA, sorry bout that 0_0. And when i say closer to the heel, i am talking tiny lengths, not very noticeable at all. I don't know if this is true, but it is working for me. Also, i may have been doing this because mp 52's are not completely players irons, so they kind of "mute" the "pure" feeling. All i know is that i got instant results by setting the ball a little closer to the heel.

Hey guys, Ive been playing forged irons for about 3 years now. Last weekend however, a guy told me that forged iron sweet spots are actually not in the center. =0 He said the sweet spot is a half inch closer to the heel, and when i started hitting the ball in that spot, i instantly gained 5-10 yards on every iron. I am wondering whether this is common information, because ive been 5-10 yards shorter than i could have been for all these years. Just letting you guys know. =) P.S. Try the Penta TP's. Probably greatest ball right now.

Ha ha, ya i don't like the black, it feels nice, but it just doesn't spin enough to hold the faster greens for me. My ball flight is somewhat low, so I need a spinnier ball to make it sit. Also, i haven't tried the prov1x's, maybe ill give those a shot too. (Penta users seem really happy with the ball. )

Ok Thank You!

Wow, thanks for all the suggestions guys! So the balls that i will have to try out are: Callaway i(z) Penta Tp Srixon Z Star Im kinda biased against bridgestones, I dont know why =).

@Leezer Oh, well how is the distance of the Pentas compared to pro V1's? Cause as long as its a little longer than pro v's its good enough for me. i dont really want just distance, I want a good combination. Ill have to give those a try though, everyone says they feel as amazing as you said. @ Mike, lets see if we can find something! =)

Thanks, I'll be sure to try it out! Has anyone hit the Taylormade Pentas yet? I have been meaning to hit them, but they are always sold out. =(

I am currently in search of a new ball to replace the Pro v1's i was playing before. I loved the spin on them, but I felt like I was losing distance. I just recently tried the Taylormade black tp's but i don't think they spin enough on my irons. I also tried the Nike one tours but i definitely lost tons of yardage on them. I also tried bridgestone rx and b330, but i didn't like them, they felt weird to me. (Swing speed is around 95-100, driver goes about 260-270). Essentially, I'm looking for the best possible combination between spin and distance. I cant really afford to lose much yardage, but I need more spin to hold the fast greens. My irons (5&4) w/ the Taylormade black's are causing the ball to hit the center of the green and just roll off without settling down. My trajectory is somewhat low, but i always strike the ball solidly. Any suggestions on any balls that might fit me?

Hey guys! thanks for all the replies, I do have a somewhat weak grip, i recently switched from a slightly stronger one to gain more control. I will try to get a front swing video. Also i was wondering, during my downswing, do i kind of drop my shoulders too much? Oh yeah, my typical misses are left, and sometimes they hook. Anyone know any good drills to help shorten the back swing?

Hey guys, I haven't had a lesson in quite a while, so I was just hoping that someone could make sure no swing-wrecking habits are creeping back into my swing. Any comments or suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank You

lol, i dont know what i was thinking when i bought these irons. I only remember thinking how sleek and shiny they were, hehe =P

I hit my driver around 250 to 260. My 5 wood goes about 200, and my 3 wood goes around 225.

Um, i hit the 7 iron about 145, and the shafts that are currently in them are dynamic gold regulars, but they are cut down an inch, so i think that makes them a bit stiffer.

I am currently using Taylormade RAC tp mb blades, and i am not getting enough yardage with them. What are some good cavity backs or half blade/cavity backs? I am thinking about getting the Mizuno mp-52's, but i am not sure. Also, will getting cavity backs increase my iron distance by about 5 yards? Thanks =) (btw, im 15 and i am 5'6)

Hey, i am looking into buying the Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2, and i was wondering if its worth it to buy it now. Im not sure, but didnt it come out around 2 years ago? so if i buy it now, there is a chance that a new one will come out in about 2 months, and then i will have used 300 bucks for nothing. What do you guys think? Also, do bigger sized putter grips help with the wrist during putting? Thanks

First of all, flops shots are usually unnecessary, but if you insist of flopping it (like i usually do), then the most imporatant things to do are to make sure you use your chest to rotate the arms, and then cock, and then maintain the angle when you are hitting the ball, instead of flipping it. If you use ur chest rotation, it should help alot from skuling it.

Your swing is kinda short. You could definately use some more rotation of hips and your shoulders. Also, at the top of your backswing, u should set at the top, instead of buggy whiipping your club through your downswing. Weight transfer could also be better. Not a bad swing i guess =)

I play with the new decade multi compound grips, and it is the best grip ive used so far. The grip feels like it will never ever budge. I used to use the tour velvet, but im never going back =P
