Iv dropped it again.....
Following my snippet of Gold Information over my grip from our Forum Gem Bob cheers mate ;)....

Iv taken the left side of the course out of play again :D :D :D
But seeing as before i was using a draw biased driver with a strong grip all manner of things were going wrong...

Today i played with the longest clubs in my bag being my 3 wood and my 21 deg hybrid and it was a huge improvement.
So i hope that sunday's medal will be a good round for me...There's rain forecast but im going with the thinking of hitting my 3 wood off the par 5's and hitting my hybrid off the par 4's to see what happens....
 
Thinking along the same lines Kid. Played to nett par wednesday hitting driver once - and that wasn't very good.
A little better today but when the rest of my game is so hot and the driver so cold it does make you wonder.

Does answer a few questions dont it Murg. I have an out to in path as Bob knows about but the weird thing for me is i seem to be getting on better with better player clubs like my i15 woods that are slightly open....

Put anything with a closed face in my hand and its lights out which does seem a little ironic for someone that plays a fade :D :D :D
I cant figure it out.

So im saving up for an i15 driver at the moment but until then ill bang the 3 wood off the longer holes.
 
At the 9 hole course I play the driver can only be used on 3 holes anyway - no wonder I'm rubbish with it in my hands!!

I've often considered not using it but once on the 3 tees where it can be played I can't resist! I guess I'll have to take it out of the bag one day and then it won't be there as an option!

Kid, have you tried the K15 yet? :eek:


I have Bob and to be honest it was just ok....
I borrowed it and an i15 from our club shop..
The i15 had the standard stiff ping shaft that are in my 3 wood and hybrid and i was hitting it with a medium flight but near enough to dead straight..

The K15 i found went very high on me and i lost alot of distance with it...I seemed to out hit it with my 3 wood for some reason...

I think that i just might have found a shaft that suits me in the i15 range by accident...
The only difference between the drivers were that the i15 was a 9.5 degree and the K15 was a 10.5 which is what iv always used...
I was a little nervous of the 9.5 but after seeing the results i was a bit gob smacked...

Everything said about Ping's i range is about the better player but i do fairly well with it...

The only thing that i wondered was could the K15 be got with the same TFC 700 D Shaft that i have in my wood or would that mess with the other characteristics of the club.
