Now that you have learned to stand to properly prepare yourself to hit a golf ball here are a few important additions that will allow you to fine tune your set up to create better golf shots.įront Feet: I like to teach people to adjust their feet to match their physical ability. What you will notice is if you bent over a lot in Step 3, it is likely that your arms hang further away from your body than if you bent over less in Step 3 which would make your hands closer to your body at the set up position. This is the location that your hands naturally want to be in and that’s where they should be in your set up. Can't hurt and it's much cheaper than getting fit for a new wedge.From your previous position let your arms comfortably hang off your shoulders straight down. I'd probably use my Groove tool again at least once before deciding I need a new wedge. From short fairway grass I like to "pinch" it at times. As my game/ball striking has improved through the years so has my ability to control spin thereby hitting shots that hit, hop and stop. Now with all that it's also a huge factor as to how you strike the ball. Some of my regular competitors have even remarked at how I'm able to stop my shots. These wedges have the best stopping power of any wedges I've ever played. My wedges for instance have normal grooves and a micro-groove etched or cut into the face in a circular type fashion. I'm come to notice from actual experience that the surface of the wedge helps grip the ball to some degree. Additionally I believe a wedge should be replaced or even re-grooved when they get worn down. Not just out of the rough but also from closely mowed grass. I do believe that groves help/assist spinning the ball. It's not the R&A which, despite being the senior body, seems content to be the USGA's lap dog. I think that the USGA really needs a competitor. Let the tour guys play at 6000 or 6300 yards so we can actually see how much better than us they are! 7200 yards with burnt out brown greens that have elephants buried under them doesn't even allow us a reference point.Īs a boxing fan, I often lament the number of ridiculous, alphabet soup sanctioning bodies that have cheapened the sport.
#DOES THE HAMMER GOLF CLUB REALLY WORK DRIVERS#
Somehow, they allowed drivers to swell to a cartoonish 460cc, but when they realized their mistake, they established COR limits just not to admit that they were asleep at the wheel while somebody was impregnating the titanium drivers.įinally, they set up the US Open venues so that a good, single digit club player couldn't break 100. They came up with the 2010 groove rule, but not because the box grooves were making the game too easy for us. (I love having to leave clubs that cost me three figures each in my locker when I play in a member-guest.) They decided that playing with a complete set was too easy, so they came up with the fourteen-club rule. They not only banned it from their competitions, but bullied the R&A into adopting 1.68" as well.
They decided the old 1.62" R&A size ball was insufficiently influenced by the wind. All the rule changes are geared to tournament players when recreational players are the heart of the game. The USGA will remain clueless forever, it seems.
Groove sharpeners work well on forged clubs because when you use them, rust develops in the grooves and from then on, they're easier to gauge out.Ī machine shop works best on stainless clubs which won't wear nearly as quickly.
