TO be fair it's a crossover, so a bit chunkier behind the ball and fairly forgiving. I've learned the hard way that distance isn't all that :p

Played 9 holes after work last night - went well, shot a 41 (par 35) - finally got my 2 iron back from repair, forgot how easy it was to hit off the tee - a reliable 250 yards down the middle :cool: Still struggling with my 3 wood off the tee, so having the 2 iron as an option is great. Also...

Surely this is an issue with insurance, rather than Auxillis? Auxillis were good for me recently. Dropped the car off when agreed, collected when agreed, worked well.

You've got a couple of things on the end of your legs that might give you a good indication...

Ahhh fair point! I think in this case it might not have helped me; I ended up back in the middle of the bunker and played a bad shot up to the lip again. But if I'd been able to drop it back in the bunker, then I might've played a better shot - who knows! Thanks anyway, think I'll download the...

That's what I've been focussing on - just cutting out the massive mistakes. Instead of trying a long iron into a green where you'd typically struggle, take 2 short clubs - go Wedge > Wedge, then you're on the green. It's the same number of shots as missing the green with a long iron, then having...

I agree with @booyaka's post below yours, sounds like you're switching around a lot and losing consistency. Typically the wrong shaft wouldn't push you too far off - have you got 1" long because you're very tall, or...?

Same - Callaway MD4 50 degree, Golfbidder tend to errr on the side of caution when it comes to describing the condition of clubs, so you're more often than not surprised by the standard. Edit - plus they take trade-ins, so I traded 3 of my older wedges for 1 much newer one - ended up costing me...

Dropped off my clubs - went for the Golf Pride Multi Compound Plus4 Midsize - measured my hands - they were borderline, but went for the larger grips as I have palms like spades :o Picking them up later, very quick turnaround!

How big are your hands? :eek: Yep that's the plan, the fitting guy said he'd measure my hands and recommend a size. He has plenty of different ones in stock, so can see what I like.

Time for a club regrip - not got one done before! Noticed that the grip on my 8 iron had started to split - I've still got the original grips on! Local place does same day turnaround, so dropping in at lunchtime to get them sorted. Any recommendations for a grip?

No pressure...

Another competition this weekend, Captain vs Vice Captain - 4 Ball Better Ball (Matchplay). Paired up with a familiar face, vs 2 single digit handicappers :eek: We did well, I had a couple of blow up holes, so did he - we went 1-up on the 15th (short par 4), managed to stick a wedge to 2 feet...

Sounds like a robust breakfast :D

Club Tuesday Medal yesterday. Happy to have finally improved my tee shots, worked out how to easier shallow the club, hitting some great drives. Overall improvement, went round in 85, net 66! 2 shot handicap cut now :eek:

For me there's a couple: 205 1.9 GTi - had the shorter ratio 1.6 gearbox fitted, along with the 309 GTi rear beam. Would show a clean pair of heels to most cars through the back lanes, hilarious fun at less than licence losing speeds. Current car Mk7.5 Golf GTI. Comfy, fast enough, handles...

Bit of a quandary today. About 6 months ago I broke the shaft on my 2 iron. Took it into the Pro Shop, they were happy to replace the shaft with a stiffer flex, cost me £100. On friday however, I broke the shaft AGAIN. Got a call from the Pro Shop today, told it would be £50 to replace - Ping...

Gotta pump those numbers up :p

19.3 for me, after a terrible round put me up from 18.4 :eek: Played on Friday, broke the shaft on my 2 iron while warming up - frustrating as it's a great club for keeping the ball under the wind. Medal on Saturday, net 73, put me in 4th in Div 2, so pretty happy with that. The wind was brutal...

Been playing plenty recently. 18 holes with @Maccy over the weekend, then 9 holes after work every day this week. Another 18 today, then my first competition tomorrow :eek:. Medal Strokeplay - hopefully I can keep my yips on the tee under control and put in a solid consistent score.
