Strategic club swapping in the top end of your bag?
aerospace_ray replied to StrokerAce's topic in What's In Your Bag?
I rotate certain clubs pending course/conditions. Top of bag down to 9 iron is set but the pw,aw,sw,and lw will get changed out. -
Having a 21 degree 4 Hybrid and 21 degree 4 iron
aerospace_ray replied to PingMD702's topic in General Q&A
It has been several decades since I could hit a 4 iron.... However I occasionally game a old Hogan blade 4 iron at certain tree lined courses I play. And I am not one to brag but my punch out game can be "Elite" as that CPG guy says [emoji16]. Sent from my SM-N960U using MyGolfSpy mobile app -
any point learning to flop shot with lower loft clubs?
aerospace_ray replied to Timmytoe's topic in General Q&A
I grew up learning the game with two wedges, ~50 deg/PW & ~55 deg/SW. Both had narrow soles. For a lob type shot > If I had to hit extremely high soft landing type shot i learned to roll face wide open to achieve. Pending turf/ground conditions combined w/carry needed determined if I would attempt the shot. I think at on time I could pull a flop off with a nine iron (what we call pw/gw today regarding loft). I think it boils down to one's skill and if they have the type sole design with the club-head (non sw/lw) to try. Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk -
Tee Height Test Discussion Thread
aerospace_ray replied to GolfSpy_THV's topic in General Equipment Talk
I really enjoyed this article and the explanations of the results. Like many that have played a long time, definitely in era's without launch monitor and other modern technologies, we discovered through trial/error how tee height affects ones ball flight and ability to hit certain clubs. I definitely hit ball further with ball tee'd higher. Additionally, I remember how I learned that I did not have mechanics/swing speed/strike angle to launch a 3 wood off the deck but I could hit one off the tee. This article/test helps me correlate or better understand my history with certain lofted clu -

Another close one by JS. Really was pulling for him. Two good showings back to back. Think the game part is good enough to win. Still have to wonder how close mentally he is to finishing the deal. I do think its close but when its mental that part can span a several tournaments until the break-thru. DB finished awesome. Will be fun watching him at Masters this year.

Do you use your gamers for practice/range work
aerospace_ray replied to tony@CIC's topic in General Q&A
Is the 40-65 yards a particular distance you have on the course and that is why you practice those distances? I have a certain course that I know pretty well, play position golf on that course alot and try to have my approach shots certain distances based on past success. On that courses range, I practice to particular distances a lot pre and post round. -
Well stated. 100% agree with your comments.

Do you use your gamers for practice/range work
aerospace_ray replied to tony@CIC's topic in General Q&A
A few years ago I decided to use my "training" clubs in my golf net for my swing drills/ mechanics training. I switched back to hitting my gamers only at the driving range and worked on ball flight, distance control and working the ball. That approach has worked for me and greatly simplified my practice and has allowed me to maximize practice efficiency. As others have mentioned pro's/con's regarding either approach. -

Concept Helix grips by Golf Pride
aerospace_ray replied to Albatrass's topic in General Equipment Talk
Do the instructions list butt diameter sizes the grip supports? I.e, .580, .600, etc. 2nd What about rules while in play? If it comes loose in middle of round are you able to fix the grip? Is this permissible in tournament under USGA rules? I do like the concept and the grips look nice. Probably will improve over time. Sent from my SM-N960U using MyGolfSpy mobile app
