    Counterbalanced grips - anyone tried?

    Very respectfully, as you have walked far more fairways than me, I think your ability to achieve 90mph is physical, I do not believe adding more total weight to the club to be the answer. Same total weight but with a higher balance shaft might see a small gain in club speed. I hope you find the...

    Centreness of Strike

    Sorry, yes. Golfer or the club. It’s very common for somebody to blame themselves and their ability when actually a poor strike or a particular miss hit can be attributed to the set up of a particular club.

    Centreness of Strike

    I'd try to establish if it's the archer or the arrow causing the slice. If its the arrow then no amount of lessons will eradicate the underlying cause. Could be a swing fault being caused by a club that it too heavy in total weight, shaft weight or swing weight. Have the performance of this...

    Club fitting

    Go and see an experienced independent fitter at any stage of your game or ability if you want to play better golf. FYI - Wrist to floor to determine length/lie angle is so archaic. What if you had two golfers with the same wrist to floor, but with totally different postured due to technique or...

    Counterbalanced grips - anyone tried?

    Strikes me your problem is shaft weight, possibly total weight that is is not helping, there is also physical limitation that may be restricting. I'd find the route cause before spending in more money which may just be putting a bandaid over an underlying issue.

    Club builder - Wiltshire

    You could always drill the head out, super easy if it's a forged head and a new drill bit. Ideally you'd need 9.4mm but a 9.5mm will be fine. That way you won't need to worry about sanding the shaft tip down.

    Wedge Loft Setup

    52*/58* is probably the most common 2 wedge system set up. Its an invaluable tool to know your full and 3/4 yardages inside out with both clubs, not just roughly like 100yds to 110yds as you may complete miss a green that way. Try and know them to a couple of yards with well struck shots, and...

    Should I upgrade my clubs while I'm still taking lessons?

    A competent clubfitter will understand the changes you're making and fit/build you clubs that will not only allow you to make swing changes more easily, but fit you even better once you swing is in the right place. If your equipment is correctly set up in the first instance, such as shaft...

    Gripsize

    Whatever you decide make sure the person that fits them makes an adjustment for a possible change the thickness of the shaft butt diameter from your woods through to your wedges. Shafts taper differently and unless this is taken into consideration the grips might feel very different in size...

    Golf Glove Recommendation

    Definitely look a the Srixon gloves, I was given a few to try and was really impressed, I think people often walk towards Footjoy in a Zombie effect. They're all made from from compatible quality high end cabretta leather, however, the finer it is, the less hard wearing. I was privy to some...

    Custom fitting brand or not

    I'd definitely visit a company that undertakes all club building themselves as they can build to exact specs. Mass assembly of equipment at a manufacturer results in higher tolerances. This often means the club, or clubs, delivered might not be the same spec (measured loft/lie of both...
