New Irons New Player but old problem

Hi Guys,

new to the forum, stay in the east.
Have been playing almost every other day.

jsut got new mizuno irons. mp53
became a totally new plater but the old problem still stays course management is still very bad...
hahahah....

Hi leeweyleon,
Welcome to GR, enjoy your stay and do join us at MBGC top floor every Wednesday night for SSn

If the irons are new, the player is new, how come there is a old problem in the first place? You suck in other sports too?

hahaha.... yes.....
all rounder play every kind of sport master of none...

i just sold my Syard regular nspro too soft for me......i thought i could manage it well by increasing the irons to hit it a bit further but too for a fast down swing speed...

changed to a mizuno mp53....S200 shaft....
the most boring part is that it will require a run in of about 200 balls per iron...

its like going back to school....

Where do you usually practice?

practise....i have been going to JB a couple of weekends already.
Palm Villa, Palm Resort when they had that special promotion on.
Otherwise Greenfairways early Saturday morning, recently i played at Sembawang Country club, it is so treacherous....but it is cheap....

I dont really like to go to driving range cos it hurts my hand....miss hit i will hit the ground...
i will try to go to the one that hits off the grass at turf city..

Practise so much also still a 100s player....i started only last year July...dont know why keep getting stuck at 106-108

how about yourself?

Assuming that you are right; shaft characteristics change after a period of usage.

After 200 balls, the irons/shaft is 'runned' in. How about after another 200 balls again? Do you need to change clubs/shaft again?

i am definitely not too sure about that...but i dont think need to change shaft ...it is probably just to season the irons like going through BMT...hahhaa....

Somehow i find that the guy from golf house is right because when they are so new it is so stiff
and not enough flex like what it should because it is so new....

So MAYBE when it has been 'WARMED UP'...
i am definitely not too sure but i will go with it....

Good luck bro! soon u will break your 100. So when is mine?

Didn't know that the shaft also has run in period??? Wonder how much softer it can get after number of usage.... thank you for sharing

yup no worries....
now it just getting used to it...trying to improve the game...
breaking 108 is so hard....imagine inproving 1 stroke for 9 holes, thats 9 strokes off...

Bogeying every hole only brings one to 90.

hahhaa....that is very very true....5 strokes on a par 4 18 hole...is 90...
dont know why man...sometimes there is this mental blockage....

marina bay...the bunkers make me to WAY left.....
sometimes adventurous...want to use 4 iron to attack the hole.....
