I have a 6 iron shot that I use quite often. It will go over an a bunker or obstacle ,and still stay below the trees. Usually with roll and all the total is around 100 yards.
Another favorite is a 5 wood slider.
It's always a fade, and will go from 140-165??? yards.
It never gets over 15-20...
Wedges and irons. Usually I can kill a fwy wood, but since I've been working on irons, the woods aren't going the best.
But, it is nice to hit a nice 4 or 5 iron into a green.
I hover to align the face with the ball, and then ground it before swing.
The height of the tee is enough that if I align while grounded, I will hit it off the heel.
Sometimes after I hit my driver, I fold my arms up and don't extend them.
The shot is ok, but the distance and direction suffers.
It doesn't happen all the time.
Does anyone have some drills to help eliminate this?
Thanks
My Son will be 14 in 2 weeks.
He has been playing golf since he was 4.
Next year he will be eligible for the high school football team.
For the past few years the coaches and teachers have tried to get him to play football. He doesn't want to.
Some of his friends have already had so many...
I overlooked this forever.
It always appeared that a club should be soled at address flat on the ground.
It never occurred to me to have it slightly toe -up.
Sometimes my shots would go right, and I thought it was grip problems.
Using a strong grip, it still went right.
The courses we...
I know you get what you pay for.
My Son will be on the school golf team next year.
He is wanting a GPS watch to help with the yardages.
We really don't want something fancy with all of the bells and whistles.
Some of them have a voice, etc.

We were playing Thursday evening.
The course was empty.
I hit my drive left and it bounced thru trees into the next fairway.
It was in good shape, but the only shots were:
1) Hit straight across into my fairway, then go toward the green.
2)Go down the wrong fairway ( better grass), then...
I was hitting my 7 iron this morning and the last 3 shots didn't sound or feel solid.
They were also shorter distance than normal.
On the last shot the shaft came apart in my hands.
The grip protected me from getting cut.
I've only had these clubs about 3 months, but they were made in...
Our regular course has an 88 yard par 3, and another one has and 82????? yard par 3.
I've played some pitch & putts that had shorter ones.
So, what is the shortest you've played on a full size course. 9 or 18 hole.
My driver has been nuts lately.
Inconsistent direction, and weak/high shots.
Yesterday, during practice I made my swing flatter and the shots were a lot better.
A penetrating ball flight. It rolled after it landed.
Was easier to square the clubface.
I started drawing the ball.
Are there any...
Lately, we have some people that spit sunflower hulls all over the green.
There are cigarette butts all in some of the bunkers.
Sometimes they'll did their heel in the sand, put the cigarette in, and cover it up.
I have been on the green and seen a large glob of tobacco spit.
There are...
