When I swapped in a 4 iron (Mizuno Pro 245 to match my Pro 243’s) and sent the G425 4h to the garage mid summer, I dropped 3-4 strokes on my index over the second half of the summer. Seriously made a huge difference in how I approach the course. I don’t even carry a hybrid now because I don’t think they work well for my swing. Sure, I’m lacking a bit in options that are 220+ out of the rough, but I’ve had way more success laying back, trying to get up and down for par and protecting bogey. For now, I’ll leave that spot in my bag open.

How long have you been playing golf? What’s your handicap or normal score? 15 years on and off. Don’t keep an index anymore, although I’m a prob slightly better than a bogey golfer, with the ability to shoot much lower or higher depending on the course/tees. What do you love about golf? Walking, exercise, twilight solo rounds, the 1st tee time and walking 18 before most people get up, the sound/feel of a flushed iron shot. I’m an equipment junkie and like trying things, do a lot of adjustments myself. I experiment more than I practice and don’t really care about score.  What brings you to MyGolfSpy? I’ve been visiting MGS for years, decided to join because I’m bored on a Saturday morning. Do you already know any other Spies? Nope. Where are you from? West Hartford, CT What is your home course? Gillette Ridge technically, and I play Tunxis Plantation and Wintonbury Hills often What are the best and worst things about golf in your region? Worsts: Humidity in July/August, Winter golf is rarely an option, grass tees at driving ranges are rare. Best: so many courses within a 20 min drive. Insane having moved from OR a few years back. What do you do for a living? The Cyber How’d you pick your user name? Pace of play. I don’t like people obsessing over short puts. ~Inside the grip on your putter, pick it up and move to the next hole.  Hi all! Posting a WITB shortly...
