False...it was a one time incident and my short game fricking blows...golf isn't just about how far you can hit the ball. Something you have yet to realize, sir.


Still dont think you hit a 3 wood 290 unless it was straight downhill.

ETA: Ive never played Sherwood, but with it as dry as it is, i can see it bouncing to 290.

That Kai'li shaft is so smooth and brought my ball flight down


Truth right there brotha. The Kai'li shaft you have in your pic is probably my favorite driver shaft on the market. I really wanted one for my R9 but they are specially made for Titleist drivers

I'm sure I could find someone who could put the R9 adapter tip on the Kai'li shaft, but I didn't want to mess with it.

The 910 D2 with that shaft is MONEY. I hope they put it on the 913, cause I will be purchasing if so.

I'm just joking with WEave. I've never seen him play but I have no problem believing a good amateur golfer with today's equipment can hit drives well over 300 yds routinely and hit their 3 wood 290.

The point is there are so many haters on this board who scoff at anyone who claims to do it. I agree with what WEAV said--its not all about distance---believe me---I know this!!!! that is why I'm still a 9hc cause I'm not accurate with my wedges

You had me going again. Thought you were serious. I would like to know what he scored on that hole because over that green is pretty tough if I remember correctly. Its a pretty touchy pitch to an elevated green that slopes back to front

I played with a young buck last Sunday that on our second hole (#11) at Santa Maria hit 8 iron from 192 yards into a little breeze... Pin high on the green ... I almost called him tiger ryno


ETA: I hit 5 iron short of the green. The young lad was bombing it all day ... He hit his 3 iron off the tee farther than I hit my driver .. Was really impressive



ETA: he shot 78 ... I shot 68

I made par...took the wrong wedge up there and chipped it to the fringe and missed the 10 footer for birdie

I figured you were screwed on birdie over that green. What happened off the tee? You were pretty far back

Thought I'd let you know that I've been focused on clearing my hips on follow through.

The difference is really interesting. I used to be a heavy digger but I'm finding myself sweeping more shots with very little or no divot.
Also I've gained 5-10 yards on all irons. Pretty crazy.

Its not all perfect though. It's causing me to over draw some shots, but I think my really strong grip might be some of the cause. I weakened on a few shots and it worked out.

Anyway, glad I had y'all criticize my swing

Go swing the Razr Fit, RBZ, Rlls, Clevelenad Black, I20, and Nike VRS and then choose.

The ones that adjust are the best for the high handicappers.

They're good for anyone and everyone. You can make them adjust for the ballflight you want to see

909DComp can be had at a steal now and is the best driver I've ever hit

That being said, I just bought an Adams F11 with DFS. I should have it by the weekend.
