Slow play usually happens when people who do not know how to play golf go on the course and try to do so. Public/semi-private courses should have some kind of policy to require non-golfers to pick up after double par.

Club weighting -- shaft weights or lead tape?
Padreruf replied to Dr Strangelove's topic in Club Making/Fitting/Repair
Another question for you club afficienados -- Is the AP1 712 clubhead better than an older clubhead -- specifically Titleist 775 CB. The former is cast and the latter is forged. The former is on the whole 2 degrees lower per club than the latter. I played with the former for the last 6 years. What I am asking is whether my game will improve by reshafting these irons to shafts I like that that "fit" me? Does the head make that much difference? -
After 4 months I can say that walking with a push cart is the way to go...even @ 67. Much more relaxing and enjoyable -- even had a 3 some in carts ahead of us tell us that we kept up with them the whole day...which we did.

Club weighting -- shaft weights or lead tape?
Padreruf replied to Dr Strangelove's topic in Club Making/Fitting/Repair
After a few months the verdict is clear -- the Kuro Kage shafts are too light and weak for me. I am hitting the Titleist 775 CB with Nippon Pro Regular shafts very solid...can move the ball left and right much easier. I am tempted to put these shafts into the AP1 712's -- but not really sure that would make a big difference in scoring. I just know that hitting a 7 iron 145 at sea level is far enough... My bigger problem is that my putting has gone to hell -- have the beginnings of cataracts but cannot have surgery now. Father time is undefeated...but I'm still playing 3x most w -

Club weighting -- shaft weights or lead tape?
Padreruf replied to Dr Strangelove's topic in Club Making/Fitting/Repair
I added lead tape as they were way too light...still not heavy enough. Have gone back to Titleist 735's with Nippon shaft -- forged and much heavier. Lost a club in distance but have regained feel. I cannot handle light...obviously. -
Ironically the shafts I replaced were graphite, but they were 120 grams...they were stiff and I needed more flexible. Missing the distance from the 712 AP1's, but not the stiffness....
-
I changed shafts in my irons -- more flexible (due to injury/age) and lighter -- 70 grams. I have hated them...feel like I am hitting with a noodle. I retrieved an older set of Titleist 735 forged irons with steel "r" shafts (Nippon) -- and love them Height and distance have returned along with feel and control. Any thoughts? Is there a tradeoff between weight and feel?
