13-14 schedule is released soon right? Or is that pre-season only?
I need to plan my Arizona Coyotes golf trip. |

I have heard about how difficult they are, but overall its straighter and longer than my driver at the moment. - senstroll
I can drop my 3 iron about 200-225 from the tee and a bit less from the ground, so I generally just use a couple of swings of that and find myself back on course
Needless to say, when I'm done with this grad school poop and have a real job I'll be out on the links a few times per week |

I bet you find that you slice to the right.. - bixll
well no, cause that would be hooking the ball. I slice to the left cause Im a lefty. Starts right goes left. |

So your ball goes 130 straight up then right? lol |

I did not mean to write slice, I meant slide. As you slide to the right, you rhead will go past the ball a bit, causing you a big slice. |

yeah there arent many of us, thats for sure. I played right handed until I was about 12 (got a few sets of clubs as a kid) then when I started playing more my dad realized I had a stronger left handed swing so we switched. I can still hit the ball right handed as well which is great for shots near trees etc lol.....always grab my buddys club and theyre always surprised I can...swing both ways....(insert joke here). - Colin Dambrauskas

yeah I turn my hips into my swing to get power out of it. Which is what I did before when I drove down the middle 280-310...but now im driving 260-280 with my slice :S....I should try to square myself up and keep my head from turning as you mentioned

I have about the exact same as you for irons but I can push more distance in my woods and driver. No idea why I hit my irons so short. I think its my stance.

because Im so busy at work, Ive been reading up on golf topics and am realizing that I must be overpowering my clubs! I noticed your 7iron at 150 and thought, thats quite low for a 7 but no its average!...I play my 7 iron 175ish....I think I need to slow my swing down a lot. |

It really does depend on club head speed and your shaft |

I hit my PW-5iron square and up the middle....but I think because my swing is so fast that when I got into my 4iron and up I start to gradually slice the ball. Should focus on bringing my yardage down a bit and keep my entire bag down the middle. |

Everytime I test a few clubs out at Golf stores and use the screen they are surprised at the ball speeds I get lol...really think thats my problem. |

ill bring my yardage down, but theres no way I can hit a 7iron 150....id be over the green every time. I could reach for a 9iron at 150 rather than a PW though. |

Any of you guys have weird habits/club uses?
For example, I keep a 56 in my bag but only use it for shots inside 10-20ft. I use my pitching wedge for most of my short game. I usually aim 50-60% of the distance from the pin and it works really well for me. |

I use a 7 iron around the green a lot
from fringe up to maybe 10 feet out, i like to bump and run depending on the lie etc |
