It seems that those who give the most advice are those who need it themselves, but don't know it. I love playing with really good golfers. They never say anything negative, always positive, and if I ask they always help. It is those who are okay golfers but think they can compete with Tiger that can't keep their advice to themselves. I just ask them more and more questions. Everything from how 1 foot puts might break to the height of my ball on the tee. Their game gets worse and worse as they focus more on my game and less on theirs. Twice I have been able to beat their own score with this strategy.

I pull out my 21 degree hybrid . . . and hope!

These are shown on Golf Channels TOP 10 for "uggliest swings." One of the best TOP 10 I have seen.

I have a high handicap and love my taylor mades w/ graphite shafts. I prefer the feel of graphite compared to steel. However, a friend of mine who has a lot slower swing speed and is not as strong prefers steel to graphite. He prefers the feeling of steel to graphite. Those that I golf with all have different opinions, but all of them say they prefer one or the other based on the feel. I would try several of both and see what you prefer.

I tried the bazooka and really struggled with it. It just didn't feel right to me. A friend of mine let me try his Bobby Jones hybrid, and WOW. I love this club. I am using it on atleast 4-6 tee boxes a round as well as in the fairway and rough. The feel is great and the sound is wonderful. I makes a loud "crack" when I hit it just right. I liked it so much that I bought my own and am going to buy a Bobby Jones driver.

I am working on my tee shot. I grew up on a 3 par and struggle with all of my woods. I am slowly going from my long irons, to hybrids, and hopefully to a driver.
