    Putting Drills

    Swing Video - Thoughts/Advice?

    Here's a few shots from my 7 iron in the net: EzdKjTxdGlM Me and my pro are currently working on getting everything on plane and keeping the swing short/compact, I naturally used to come over the top quite a bit. Therefore, to obtain a neutral ball flight he's asking me to really rotate my hips...

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/golf/9287706.stm Haha! I mean I'm obv a Euro fan and appreciate he's done a lot to contribute to previous Ryder Cups, however, surely he can't get back to the level required to compete with the current crop of youngsters coming through. Still, I guess everyone...

    Playing out of "lush" rough

    Right, so I'm just about entering my first ever winter season of golf. As you may have guessed from the title I'm having trouble playing out of the thick stuff. As it rains a fair bit in the UK the rough is now all juicy and thick. In particular I'm having trouble judging how far shots will go...

    Laser Range Finder - Help Please

    As some may have seen I've got a fair bit of cash to spend in the pro shop. I'm thinking of getting a laser range finder as I'm a massive "yardage" golfer. I like to know that I've got for example 148 yards to go...therefore its a 7 iron with a slight grip down etc... Anyway, what one should I...

    Just won my first ever comp!

    Wooooo! So happy right now! It was a 9 hole stableford off the back tees open to anyone that won a mid-week qualifier over the summer. I shot level par gross over 9 holes...and that was after starting double bogey, bogey. So a final stableford score of 26 points, pretty much the best I've ever...

    Rules Question - Hitting Aiming/Marker Posts

    Right, a playing partner had an interesting scenario come up a few weeks back that I am hoping you guys will be able to help with. My course has a few blind driving holes, therefore there are big 6ft+ red and white aiming posts at the top of the crests (I'm sure you know the sort). Anyway, my...

    Club Fitting Question and "IPAC" Accreditation

    Recently I've been searching for some new clubs (irons in partcular) and found a Mizuno accredited fitting centre. They seemed to know what they were doing and gave me a specification. Recently, while getting my Eidolon wedges I was contacted by an independant fitter who was charged with...

    New Irons Choice - Help Please

    Hey guys, I'm hoping to get some decent opinions here, feel free to discuss/reccomend away :D I'm officially a 17 handicap, but my mates make me play off 12 because that's more realistic. I only hit 1-2 "duff" shots every couple of rounds i.e. 90% of my iron shots are good strikes so I consider...
