Patient: Male Age: 44 Current handicap: 7 Lowest handicap: 2 Plays: Once a month Practices: Sometimes Ailment: I've played with the same set of Ping Eye 2 irons for nearly 20 years. I've tried newer models and brands but always end up back with the old set. Am I missing out on all the advances that have been made in golf technology? Prescription: The Ping Eye 2 irons are still pretty good, but you should check the loft and lie angles. Even a strong cast iron can bend over time. New technology is only better if you get the right club for the shape of your swing. The best thing to do is see a professional club fitter. They understand the golf swing and the dynamics of the club and how they affect your ball flight. You'll likely find clubs that will perform even better than your old standbys. Patient: Male Age: 32 Current handicap: 16 Lowest handicap: 13 Plays: Twice a month Practices: Rarely Ailment: If there's trouble on the left side of the fairway, I tee my ball on the left side of the tee box in order to avoid potential disaster. My friend says I'm nuts. He just tees it up wherever it feels comfortable. How do you decide where to tee your ball? Prescription: Where you tee your ball up is a personal preference. When I'm playing, I look at the hole and the particular shot in front of me. Sometimes my mind tells me to fade it and sometimes it says play a draw. The main thing is to find a shot you feel comfortable hitting. That might mean hitting a 3-wood or utility club to get the ball in the fairway. But no matter the club, you need to be 100 percent committed to execute to the best of your ability. SG |
