Hi all,
Looking for a bit of friendly advice!
Have played very casually 2/3 times a year for as long as I remember but this summer decided I was going to start playing regularly and really get into the game.
Had struggled to hit woods before off the tee so had bought a howson driving iron Few summers ago, similar to a 1 iron I believe.
Have been playing regularly last month or so and have had some success with the driving iron from the tee. Most of the time solid contact and distance but usually way right and now sometime left!
Don't get me wrong I can crush it a good distance and a few times a round I get it perfect but it's inconsistent.
Been reading up and it seems I may have been making things hard for myself, not an easy club to master the driving iron?
Also been reading that a hybrid may be my best bet from the tee? Can anyone recommend a good forgiving hybrid to start off with? Would be looking at second hand until I really got the hang of it.
My scoring about the moment is around 100 a round but generally keeping it straight off the tee is my main problem.
Should also say that with the driver my hook is the biggest problem.
Thanks in advance!
