Charn - I too just finished my custom fitting process. Wanted in the worst way to get the 910 D3 Diver but could not get matched with a shaft to keep the ball flight down. The following is what is in my bag:

Driver: I20, 8.5*, Project X Black 6.0, Multi-compound Black/White

Fairway: I20, 5 wood, Digital 17* (1*Strong), 1*open, +1"length (43"),Project X Black 6.0, Multi-compound Black/White

Hybrid: I20, 20*, 1*Strong (19*), 1*open, +1/2"length, Project X Black 6.0, Multi-compound Black/White

Irons: Titleist AP1, 3-GW, 1*Flat, GW 1*Strong, Length +1/4"(all), Project X PXi 5.5, Multi-compound Black/White

Wedges: Vokey SM4 54-11 and 58-09, 2*Flat, +1/4"Length, Project X PXi 5.5, Multi-compound Black/White

Waiting for the Fairway, Hybrids, and wedges. Still experimenting on the putter.

I see you and couple others have a 46-48 volkey weges what is the reasoning for not going for the PW in the set of irons .

[/quote] I personally plan on sticking with the AP1 PW vs buying a 46 Vokey. I tried it and the 48 and didn't like either. I love the 50-08 to death though. I've always used a set PW and that has worked for my purposes.

[/quote] Today's bag: Burner 2007 HT draw driver-5W-7W Rescue 2009 4H (I finally caved in and got a 22H) Sumo SQ2 5H and 7H AP1 7,9,P Vokey SM3 50-08 (51), 54-11 (55), 58-04, 62-07 White Hot 7H putter. Would love to get the 8 iron from ebay but, quite frankly, $79 + $10 sh for a used club is too much. In the meantime I have an 8 iron distance shot with both the 7H and 7 iron. I'm getting the same distance out of the AP1 7 iron vs the Eye 2 6 iron I used to have.

[/quote] OK..I got the 8 iron off eBay.

[/quote] Also picked up the 6 iron at Golf Mart today. So my setup will be: Burner HT Draw driver Burner 7 wood Nike Sumo SQ2 5/26 and 7/34 hybrids AP1 6-PW SM3 wedges Odyssey White Hot 7H putter.

My SQ 5H and 7H are go to "can't miss clubs". I have my persimmon 10W and 34H, and Eye 2 5-7 irons, in reserve but have better distance control with the SQs.

[/quote] I just replaced my Eye 2 8 and 9 irons with AP1 9 and PW (got them used at Golf Mart - same loft as the Eye 2 8 and 9; had the lie angles adjusted R300 shafts and hit the 9 iron almost 140 yards). After all this about how great AP1s are, decided to give the short irons a whirl and I love them! Can't part with my SQ2 26 and 34 hybrid since I am a bit spoiled with them.

Semi - senior hippie bag here: K15 12* driver G20 4h 23* G2 5 to SW Titleist Vokey 58*/04 Anser 4 33" DT SoLo --- all in an ultralight Titleist bag.... Happy, happy, joy, joy......

[/quote]

Those senior hippie bags WORK. My driver is a Burner HT Draw (13* loft) and I actually hit it lower and farther than a standard 10.5 neutral driver. At this point my wood setup is 5W-7W-9W (mainly to determine if there is added value in carrying the 5 and 9 wood); my one two punch for a year and a half had been my 7 wood along with either my persimmon 10 wood (which I have had since 2010) or my SQ 5/26 (which I got last summer). I also have a persimmon (Louisville HL3) and metal head (SQ) 34H (if I carry the persimmon, the 7 iron is a necessity; if I carry the SQ, I don't really need it because I can close the gap to the 8 iron by choking 1/2 "). I have better distance control with the SQs.

My middle game had been a bit of a science project between 2006-early 2010. The common thing is that I have kept a 5 and 6H and some form of "approach" hybrid (34-38*) in the bag and that I don't carry a 6 iron. I've had (in progression) 3DX (26 and 29), Concorde 9/27 and 11/31 woods (these are Tight Lies clones) G10 (28 and 32), Pinemeadow Excel Strong 31 and 35 (carried a DIY Toski 9 wood through 2009), Warbird Divine 9 and Ely Would (11 wood) and BB 9W and 26 or 29H.

Jack, Sam Snead and Mickey Wright used to pick their left feet up a little and the trigger for the downswing was re-planting the left foot. That was the way I learned how to swing a golf club in 1967 or so (my dad used to take me to the driving range when I was 10; I didn't actually play golf until I was 14). They also used to teach people to put their hands way ahead of the ball at address back then and tilt the head so that you would look at the ball out of the left eye. I managed to hit the ball pretty far and reasonably straight but my short game was not so great (especially putting).

The point I was making about lifting the left foot is that quite a few manage to overswing or hang back because they put too much weight on the back foot (and that makes it more difficult to shift weight).

I've been using a compact backswing since 2009 and I am a reasonably consistent ball striker.

I guess it is a bit redundant - oh well.

Lou G — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 01:53:00 GMT

Nicklaus, Sam Snead, Mickey Wright. The way golf was taught in the good old days was to lift the left foot slightly and I even did it and was a pretty straight hitter. Even then I could get some rather monstrous distance with a real wood (I drove it 325 in my soph year of HS with a 3W). What they did was re-planted the left foot to start the downswing (something the average golfer doesn't quite have the talent to do).

If you look at some videos of Ben Hogan, his left foot remained planted.

What causes the power is the torque in the torso and then the releasing of the wrists. If you have done your backswing correctly, it should be rather laborious trying to talk at the top (another Paul Wilson golf tip).

I've been a better ball striker since going to a more compact backswing in 2009 and I can generate more power that way.
