  1. Maybe once or twice every 3 rounds. I have a new driving iron that i hit extremely consistently and gets me out about 15 yards shorter than my 3 wood, but eliminates the hooks. On the typical course I play, I can live with hitting one more club in to the green from the fairway, vs the rough. That's not to say I dont hit my 3 wood well, but when I really need to hit the fairway, the driving iron is just much easier
  2. That's the hope. I haven't been a straight driver of the golf ball and its really held back my scores over the last few years. I think being able to find 2-3 more fairways a round with the driver with my length would be huge
  3. I currently am playing the Ping g410 LST and I am getting lessons. We decided to do a driver fitting for one of my lessons and I was getting good numbers with the Ping around 280 carry, but he noted my spin numbers just seemed way too high and my dispersion was a little too big. On a whim, he gave me a Sim with a ventus blue shaft and had me take a couple swings. First drive I thought I miss hit it of the toe based on the feel but it carried 315 right down the pipe. My spin was down from 2800 to 1800-2100 and my launch was 15 degrees. I hit 6 more and my numbers were great. More notable was my dispersion was down to 25 yards between left and right shots. Ball speed was maybe 1-3 higher, but the key for me was the spin reduction. I had not planned on buying an new driver this year, but based on the numbers we saw, it was a no brainer to order a SIM. It will be here in about 2 weeks and I cannot wait. Just hope I get similar results to what I saw in the fitting.
  4. I recently did a driver fitting and we found that going from standard length to 44.5 greatly reduced my dispersion by increasing my center strike. I didn't sacrifice anything distance wise as well. I went from around 45 yards between left and right shots to 25 yards. It felt strange holding a shorter driver, but I couldn't argue with the results.
  5. Still a good performer for me. I have switched over to the bridgestone tour b series but I still really like the feel and performance of the kirkland balls and wouldn't hesitate to using them
  6. I wash mine every hole if I am able. No ball washers at most of my courses so i'll wash my ball in the water hazards by the green
  7. Within an hour of browsing this site realized it was the place for me. Signed up for the forum and signed up for a donation subscription. Can already tell the value of the content this site and forum produces. I am excited to be apart of it.
  8. I have recently switched over to the footjoy weather soft from the nike dura feel glove. The dura feels usually lasted me a full season to season and a half. Based on how my new footjoy 1 is wearing i'll probably get about the same out of it. I also use a footjoy rain glove if its humid or in the rain. A must for me is a glove with the extra leather padding on the palm
