KevCarter,

I was certain you were shooting at me here.

I hope you'll accept my apology.

I deleted the other post.

Now, where's the head doctor when you need him.

No problem my friend. Thank you for deleting the post, you are a gentleman!

Cheers:,

Air,
Kev's correct. COMPRESSION!! It is a feeling that probably should be illegal. Rarely did I ever experience it before and now I experience it frequently. I think that is what Basic Motion will ultimately bring.
Dodger is correct about DOWN. After about 50+ years of lifting the ball, or some variance of, I now try to strike down on every shot including putts, just so I do not lose the concept.
I have increased my pw from about 100 yds on a good day to 115. I've been air mailing greens everywhere, but my direction is very good. I love chipping back to the hole. I don't even care if I go out of bounds yet as long as I get compression. I am sure scoring will come.
If it helps at all, I am trying to think of the ball as a clock. The very top of the ball is 12:00 and I try to strike it at 2:00. Baby, that is down. It works great so far. It just took me a long time to get there. I have a long way to go.

One other thing. I have three tools/aids that I use regularly. I use the PBS a lot. I have several and they are all quite worn.
I have a Tour Striker. I have the 7 iron and am thinking of purchasing the SW also. Kev has the SW and I tried it a little. Great tool for in the yard and not having to chase balls a long way. I hit that 7-iron so well some days I wouldn't mind having a whole set.
I have a TALY that I use for chipping, pitching and putting. It is another very helpful device.
Thanks.

I agree, all really good tools... just don't bring out the Taly when our friend Dodger is around!

You must not be working today. I should have called and met you for a lesson.

I'm actually doing our men's club scoreboard on my computer and watching LBG at the same time. Don't tell my members!

Sounds like they can be helpful tools.

The tour striker looks quite interesting.

A good alternative to a tour striker is IMO to purchase a set of vintage blades on ebay.

Some of those blades are merciless in their feedback. You'll feel it an see it if you fail to hit down on the ball. I bought myself a complete set of some McGregors. They cost me 35$ plus shipment. And the grips were in pristine condition. Killer bargain.

What's so different with these clubs that you want an extra set? Are they flat on both sides?
