    Our local range lets you have a hit with the 2nd hand clubs to see if you like them. Do you have anywhere near you? Even if you hit a 5 wood that you liked you could then search online for the same sort of spec on a 7. I should’ve mentioned that our range has a pretty decent pro shop attached.

    I am more concerned with the noise being made as the Europeans are taking their shot. Very poor show.

    I just don’t think (no offense to our golfmates over the pond) that the crowd is painting a good picture of the USA. No good chat, obvs can’t handle their beer and blindly shouting USA, USA, USA into the void! Not even applauding good Euro shots (not all of them but quite a few)

    It is supposed to be a gentleman’s game.

    No problem Stewart. Michael got a ‘challenging’ day. Hopefully he enjoyed it!

    Get well soon!

    ‘nobody likes to see that’

    A favourite of mine (not heard it on the channel yet) is NITBY – Not in the bunker yet – when you have one of those short chips near the green where the sand is between you and the flag. 🙂

    I play Mizuno irons & wedges. Recently swapped out my MP243 GW for the same loft in a T1. They’re really good but as others have said it depends what feels good to you. The shop at our range has second hand ones that you can hit a few with. Not sure if you have anything similar nearby but that could give you a feel about the clubs and then you can decide new or used. For info I have 48, 54, 60 in the bag. 60 for bunker and (attempted) flops, 54 for 100 yds all the way to chipping (it’s the multi-tool).

    I’ve just bookmarked it on my phone. Works fine when I use it.

    I think there’s a bit in there about really knowing your game too. He’s not thinking about trying to fly it high or low, draw it or fade it, he just knows it will fly like it does and go x yards. Doesn’t try to overhit it and he’s obvs done it a lot! I could learn a lot for my game by using the same principles but like most of us, I still have moments of delusion! 🙂
