The light has returned into my life

@Red Do you manage to keep consistency when playing less often? Or do you always play often enough that it's not an issue?

Do you think the Pro V1s make a difference? At least for outside of the greens. I usually use whatever of the top brands like Srixon, Taylormade, Callaway etc are about $15-25 (AUD) a dozen. The TM Burner balls are pretty cheap and seem good. Nice :D Good courses there?

Usually play somewhat strict to the rules. Most of them seem pretty good, though 40 seconds to play a stroke could be a bit short in some situations. What balls do you use? Picked up a new putter recently, seems to be worth it. Definitely an improvement

:tup: I do think a lesson or two is probably necessary, that video seems helpful as so far I haven't really tried changing much besides grip strength, alignment etc.. basically always with the same downswing and general body movement. Even though I can't do it consistently yet, maybe 3-4 out of...

Yeah hooking left as in the ball starts straight or even slightly to the right then curves left. You're probably right, probably something fundamental like that. So I would want to try and get my swing more straight/parallel to my body?

Still hooking heaps of my shots with irons. Tried adjusting my grip but not much difference. Not really sure how to fix it besides aiming far right :P

Don't think I could do without a driver, how far do you hit the 3 wood off the tee? I think I'll most likely get a hybrid at some point but I'm fairly content with what I have at the moment. If I replaced my current 3 wood, not sure if I'd get another 3 or a 5. 5 seems more tempting because...

finally managed to get some good usage out of my new driver on the course today, ~270 yards dead straight :D the irons are great too, so long

I've mostly been pretty unsuccessful hitting anything lower than a 6 iron off the fairway so far. I've hit 170-175 yards off the tee with a 6 iron but the furthest I've gotten off the fairway is probably about 130. I hit my 6 iron and probably 7 further than my 4&5 irons. Really just need...

:tup: Probably don't really need a mini-driver anyway. Have a driver, 3 wood and 4 iron... is a hybrid easier to hit off the fairway than both a 3 wood and 4 iron? Or maybe a 5 or 7 wood is easier?

go on

why is "acmilan" on "juventuz"?

thoughts? it's the mini driver version.

$300 aud and yep. Don't know how well I'm going to hit a 4 iron though :P :D

picked up the CG16s today :D

:tup: I'll have a look into it but it might be a bit too pricey for how much I want to spend at the moment. I still can't hit irons well consistently so I'm not sure how much difference it would even make now.

Was actually thinking about this already, because the SW I'm using to chip around the green has a bit too much distance to it and something to more reliably get it over bunkers around the green without going too far would be great. If I'm ever in Scotland I'll let you know :P Fair enough...

I think I have a better feel for it now, I had a couple of better ones where I hit hard but the sand slowed the club down enough to just lift the ball out of bunker and roll nicely onto the green. Not really sure what loft is, still using my irons from quite a few years ago. I'd guess around mid...

hit some better bunker shots today, tried following through more. hit one really good one, almost PGA tour worthy :D
