Topic: Golf Talk / How to lower your handicap..Leave your tip

Like most of us, I guess, finding it hard to move my handicap too much and seem stuck on the same mark.

If everyone puts their tip down, it may build into a library, that can help us all win that major, we all believe we’ve got in us (haha)

Here’s my tip for starters

Lag putting….. Be happy with two putts. If i put it within the “dustbin lid” all the time I’m not going to leave myself 12 feet past

Topic: Golf Equipment / Irons need lengthening by 1 inch to1-1/4 inch's

how much for a full set??

I was quoted 10 bucks per club by somone local just wanted to know if thats near the mark?

80 bucks for the set

I actually got mine done when I bought the clubs, so they did it at no extra cost but they did say that it would normally be $50 for the set, so nearer $5 per iron. I thinks its a pretty simple process.

Topic: Golf Equipment / Irons need lengthening by 1 inch to1-1/4 inch's

Dave…Had my irons lengthened by an inch (with the extender) and the feel is fine. All done at Golf Box, East Perth. Also had 2 extra papers into the grip as apparently I have hands like a JCB shovel.

My mate had his done at Drummond in Osborne Park.

Both went very smoothly and was really inexpensive.

Likewise, I love my TM and so do the 6 or 7 other blokes I know who use them.

What lofts do you carry in your bag?

Topic: Golf Equipment / Callaway X460 driver

yes it’s supposedly used to increase the ‘feel’ for a draw

seems to be slightly straighter
occ still whack that wayward fade…….

it’s those sticker lead tapes- pre cut you can get from your local pro shop or Rebel sports
mine is about 4 to 5 g in total towards the heel region

If Tiger plays Lefty will he be that good ?

Thanks for that. I’m prone to the odd wayward right drive (I take full responsibility for myself on this though) so could well be worth a look.

Just one more question how did you arrive at the 4 to 5 g or was it just trial and error?

Topic: Golf Equipment / Callaway X460 driver

ya, mine is 10*
stock regular
and some lead weights on the heel side
it’s head is not as bulky as some 460cc

probably should try hitting it off the deck as some of you seem to love

What do the weights give you? I’m assuming you’re looking for some kind of draw.

Is it a stick on tape you use?

Can only say the the X460 has been a wonderful club for me. Haven’t tried too many others, but it goes long and straight (well most of the time)

Topic: Golf Equipment / Lost Club - Not handed In

Does anyone know of any companies, where you buy older individual irons to replace a 7 iron I left on course a few weeks ago?

Have tried eBay (Aus/US/UK) but nothing as yet

Any assistance appreciated.

Topic: Golf Equipment / Help....In a panic

what seems to be the exact problems vs your old set ?

i think the steel shaft plus the 1” longer makes the feel different for you now
have you tried choking down slightly about 3/4” of so to get more feel ??

Out of the hundred I hit, I pulled at least 65% a good 20 to 40 metres left of target (depending on iron used) No real turn on the ball just a “straight” pull, if you know what I mean.

I also hit around 10 balls with a shank. I haven’t done that for years. Of the one’s I hit straight they were a good 20 metres short of what I would normally expect with my Mizunos.

I tried them in nets in the retailer with the standard length shaft and seemed OK. Although it’s difficult to tell 100% in the nets.

Topic: Golf Equipment / Help....In a panic

Guys,

Just upgraded my Mizuno T-zoid irons (normal length, regular graphite) for a set of Callaway X-tour (steel, regular).

I’ve had the new clubs extended by 1inch as I’m 6 foot 4.

Just picked them up and straight to the range and the results were woeful and that’s the polite version. Obviously it’s me and not the clubs.

Is this normal when you change clubs? Anyone got any similar experiences?

Hi Antz,

At the risk of wasting your time. Tell me what you want for them and also can you somehow reassure me that they are the genuine article..
Thanks Batta
