recently tested my swing on range (after practice in back yard a while),
iron play starts to steady (from sand wedge to long iron).seems that shot in
the range of 170 - 210 yards start to becomes more stable. maybe ready to
test some 7000 yard course?
but no confidence on making shots beyond 220 yards.

not sure highhander would play with highdicappers. but highhander please
promote the game of golf by playing with highcaippers like us.
However, i was better than him at #9 San Ramon Golf Club. he was +18, i was
3wood, 1 shot into water, replay another 1 or 2 shots from same spot onto
island green, 2 or 3 putts. +2 or +3, haha....

driving distance is still 298 yards, with mostly 3wood? 真是挺变态的
he attacked green with 5wood often,from 240-250 yard distance, (the shot on
TV didn't hit green, but he did a good chip from rough around green) . also
hit green using 3i from 228 yard away.
his game above 200 yards is so good.

v*****r 发帖数: 2325 | 5 re this post to top 10...
usually see pros lay up when the water is in front/back of the green.
the hole you played is left side, and it's dogleg turning right to left. if
you don't hit many hooks/draws, then the risk is smaller.
last time play with you, saw your 3wood shot is long and low, guess a lot of
roll .
attack green needs some kind of high shot. so maybe 5wood is better.
tiger's long approach mostly 5woods, 3i. said that his 3i shot is very high
trajectory. ..

v*****r 发帖数: 2325 | 8 for shorter club, hands are ahead of clubhead at impact. but for driver and
woods, hands and left forearm align with club shaft... my understanding
right?
since loft of driver or 3wood is so small... could not afford any deloft...
except you hit ball on ascending blow.... which you can do for driver....
do you have any driver swing video? i feel that it's hard to find a swing

b*******e 发帖数: 724 | 11 I hate to say this. Save the money! a new driver doesn't help correct
swing flaws. You will probably hit longer and straighter paying a pro that

drivers, they look too big to me. It must be just me. No one else seems to
have issues with large-head drivers. |

v*****r 发帖数: 2325 | 14 "Research indicates that lighter shafts are, in general, better for the
average golfer. Less weight produces shots of greater distance and accuracy
for beginning and intermediate players. The low handicappers and pros have
higher swing speeds, more control over the movements of the club and they
possess an acute sense of 'feel' for the head of the club. The shafts best
suited for them typically are higher in gram weight and have heavier
swingweights." |

v*****r 发帖数: 2325 | 17 thanks for the feedback on adidla shaft.
i was talking about ball speed 150mph, not club head speed (even long
driving champ could not be that fast with clubhead speed). for most launch
monitors, that's the speed directly meausred. club head speed is estimated
using some kind of formula... also LM accuracy at local store is questionable i guess.
if you club head speed 115-120, you can drive 290- 300 yard on regular basis. that's in the range of PRO long hitter level.

v***s 发帖数: 4031 | 20 I used to have a 13 degree strong 3 wood and hoped to hit the ball to the
green on my second shot for a par 5. To tell you the truth, I had never
successfully hit it over 200 yards with my fairway shots. It was difficult
for me to hit it on the fairway, even though I could hit it over 230 yards
at a driving range. It's just my two cents. Hope this won't discourage you
about having the strong 3 wood.

yesterday hitting 15* regular flex, i dropped the ball onto grass in front
of mattress, and hit from there. hit the back fence before landing. but
that's only one out of 12 shots. still some swing problems.
i never hit fairward wood over 200yard on course either, but that's because
i never did that on range before. i play 3 18-hole round this year, didn't
find much differnce between range and course yet. hit at range bad, hit on

Take your time and get known about the driver and shaft. Hope you will like

我现在也是感觉3wood感觉比driver好很多。3w我能full swing,有信心。今天打了一

driver就是感觉swing不full,不爽,用不上劲,距离跟3w差不多。
我想每个人有不同的理想full swing的shaft长度,刚度flex,head重量,形状阻力的
组合。
所以我相信我会寻找我用的3w的11度左右的头略大的driver,应该是我的“customer

you would run into burner players very often on the course or on the driving

most ppl go for it for its power, i guess, that is the name, Burner was from.
when looking for driver, a lot of ppl's main concern is distance, and you
can always replace it with 3wood, when you need control and accuracy.
there are few burner's variations, all of them are very popular. few
variations were marketing for high-handicapper. But, some tour pro players
