When we saw her then, she defintely had a nice smooth and fast swing. However, 150-160+ (meters) does seem to be a bit far with a 6 iron even with her swing, maybe Lisy meant yards?

But I tot Mloy is a bro?

That's how hired killers make money Smile

I just somehow knew u couldn't help it but to give it a go at this one...

Just outta curiosity coming from a newbie - do people really care what equipment you use if you shoot a low score?

I mean, the objective at the end of the day is to get through 18 holes with the least number of strokes right?

Or is it more of a case getting a low score while doing it "right" way...?

No offence to the golf purists out there :-)

as with everything else in life...it doesn't matter what others think. the funny thing though, is that the more into golf u get, the less appealing u'll find chunky game improvement clubs

Now that is a statement that I agree, coz it's happening to me Laughing

Buy a 5 hybrid ... easier to launch, more forgiving and further than a 5 iron if your swing speed is on the slower end of the scale like mine

Hey Lisy,

I 2nd the motion on this. If you can't get distance out of your 5 iron.

Get a 5 hybriid.

Or you can changed the shaft of your 5iron.

I have a friend who replaced his 5 iron with a graphite shaft with an inch and a half long. It worked on him.

if u are hitting 150-160m with your 6i....

i assume u are driving 200m+ with your driver....

most red tees will not require u to use 5i....

unless u play off white or blue....

here is a thought. How accurate is your 5 iron. unless you are a pro, then like most of us, 5 iron does not mean any par or birdy opportunties, so why bother? stck to a 6 iron, chip it close and putt for par. think about it. have not played a 5 iron in 6 years. don't miss it. i choke down a 4 hybrid when i have to hit that distance. Works for me.

So many nice people helping me.. Smile Smile

Thank you all.. Very Happy

I agree with Derek and Hybrid..
I may have to look at using Hybrid as well.. instead of trying to use 5 iron..

Currently.. I am in the process of learning a new swing..
Which allows me to swing and hit without any effort..

Please do continue to help me and give me ideas of how I can improve..

The Best is Yet to Be... *8---((0-0))---8*

Let's all enjoy playing Golf and improve together.. cheers


Tomorrow is Valentine's Day..
Google has just put up the most meaningful message for Valentine's Day..
Does anyone has a chance to look at it yet..? *8----((0-0))----8*
If not yet.. Do take some time to have a look at it..
Happy Valentine's Day everyone.. On Green
