Is the difference in equipment that big a deal? I got some Wilson irons. I have no idea if it's limiting me or if I'm good enough to notice or improve with better equipment.

I got a Taylormade M2 driver and I swear I hit it just as bad as a driver half the price. :manny:

It can be. Better and newer woods/drivers will go farther and be more forgiving than older clubs. Irons, a little less so, but more about finding the right fit. Something you feel comfortable with. I still play 20 year old Hogan's because I know what they're gonna do.

But nothing's going to be a miracle cure for a shaky swing.

Depending on your swing speed/ball flight, the shaft in your driver could be killing you.

I've played a few of these balls that I've found and they're pretty good-



I played this course this weekend - Little Bennett Golf Course

A lot of blind shots and elevation changes. If you can move the ball then you're gonna love this course. Course management is important. Shot a 46 in the front because i used driver when i should have gone with an iron. Shot 40 on the back nine with a better course management. Still lost at least 5 strokes with inconsistent short game (nuked a few putts and left some chips too short).

That ending to the tournament this weekend was :ohlawd:

Golf has been delivering great sports viewing since they restarted:salute:

Who won at East Lake? I’ve rode past the course a few years during the tournament and it looks like it’s fun to experience with all the tv crews and fans.

This is about as dominant golf as I've seen in a while. Xander and Thomas played well but DJ was insane.

Anyone have experience getting their clubs fitted?

I've never had one done and I just got a new shaft put on my driver.

I'm slicing on like 80% of my drives still :francis:
