i think im getting better.

[lynchy76]

I just played 9 holes at my local course and hit a 42. My best score for 18 holes is 89, but is usually anywhere in the 90s. I had my new g5 driver which I hit well all I done is tinkered with my game by moveing my hands a bit further down the grip on all my clubs and found I was hitting further and more control. I was quite pleased, but I know it could go wrong next time I play

last week after lesson, practice and game, i thought i was getting "better". Then last night i went to the range and had a shot of my brothers irons and i couldn't hit them. Very strange. Then i used my own clubs again and everything was ok.

Surely a "better" player could have hit both clubs.

Not really. Poulter wouldn't even play in a comp last year when he lost his driver. He could have used a different one (same shaft, lie, loft, grip etc), but chose not to play.

It is difficult to jump from one set of clubs to another, as anyone who has been c/f'ed for irons will attest. Given long enough, sure you can learn to hit anything. But to just pick up a different set, probably not.

Yeah Lynchy, but on the other hand it could get even better!!

Surprised that you are getting more length with the driver by gripping it shorter! More control, yes.
