• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

I bought today.....

Thanks for the replies, I had considered the swing weight but wasn't sure exactly what I'd need. Was going to do some measuring and weighing once I had the new grip on before ordering the weight.

Is that 12g for definite? If so, I'll order one now.

Depends on the original length of the driver, but normally 1" is 6 swingweights adding 2g to the head for each swing weight.
 
Bought an early access program.. why not

Didn't pay £197 managed to get for £97

Suppose it's like me and my golf but with the local range owned by Scott Cranfield

Guaranteed progress*


*Not a guarantee

Will be interesting to hear how you get on, worth a punt for the price of an old club, hope it works out for you ??

I know right! Bit dodgy putting that .. but for the price I thought why not

When saw £197 I was like not s chance but £97 that will do

To be fair a few years back my game benefited hugely from reading a couple of books on the matter. I’m sure there’s much more to be learnt. It’s all incremental gains of it works so defo worth a go.

This is the difference in mindset. 2019 season around September time I stood on the 18th tee with a good card in my hand, off 8 or 9 at the time and I was 3 over gross in a medal. The last is a risk reward par 4 and I bottled it, took an iron for safety and hit an awful one. Panic stations. It’s a hard green to hit from distance. I missed but luckily didn’t land in any of the significant trouble awaiting. A good chip, missed a nervy squiffed 10 footer and tapped in to round off a 76, with a sweat on. Could have been a double or worse easily.

Two weeks later I stood on 18 in a board comp, 1 over gross.

Smashed Driver. Little Pitch. 5 footer dead centre. Level par gross. Won cup. Elation.

Totally different frame of mind. It makes the world of difference. If you can learn the techniques to put you there first time, that’s worth a lot more than a ton ??

I like the fact it's linked to my pro aswell as he teaches at Cranfield's centre so similar methods I believe
 
Just had a look at their sale - you appear to have gone with the subtle option :)

Theres some absolute marvels on there!

I had a lovely waterproof cart bag off them last year though - great quality and price - only went back to see if they had any stand bags for this year and I walk away with a loud polo :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
Sunday stroll bag from caddyclubgolf.com - that's it for golf related purchases for this year I think.

Although I also ordered a pair of shoe stretcher things from Amazon - I'd never realised that you can stretch tight fitting shoes/trainers.
The effect is minimal so if your shoes really don't fit then they still wont afterwards. If they are on the edge of fitting then you stand a chance. I think I read you get a 1mm stretch at best.

Good luck, I had a pair of shoes I wanted to love but trashed my little toe. No amount of stretching could save them.

Cheers - the ones I will try them on are just a little tighter than I'd like - I could wear them but they'd be more comfortable with a touch more space.
