Club Champion
Hi All
I am 60 and play of eight with a good short game.
I practice for 4-6 hours a week and play twice.
I take regular lessons
I am not a great changer of clubs now playing mostly Ping G10 that I purchased after a custom fit five years ago.
Towards the end of last year I realised that I was losng distance from the tee. Never a big hitter but struggling to make 180 meters total.
I decided that over the winter I would take a course of lessons 8 with this distance issue in mind.
The lessons went well.
I also looked into a new driver and tried various of my friends drivers.
I looked for a good custom fitter who had a trackman available.
My Pro accompanied me for what was a very interesting and enlightening 3 hours. He was extrmely knowlegable and well versed in the art of club fitting, so much so that the Pro returned to him the week after to be fitted for a custom fit set!
I tried many head and shaft combinations all with the assistance of the trackman my Pro and the fitter.
I purchased a driver based on the figures and what felt good to me.
Now a month later after hours of practice I have returned t my old Driver and am flirting with friends Taylor made that I have on trial. The custom fit Driver is just not consistent enough for me!!!!!!
I am though pleased to say I have found nearly an extra 20 metres
Just goes to show?
Enjoy a your golf.
