    Speed vs. Power?

    This may be a dumb question but what's the difference between speed and power? You hear people say that todays game has more power in it. But what does that really mean? I really have no idea (obviously).

    Where's the beef?

    .....I mean sweet spot? I always figured the sweet spot on an iron was basically the middle of the face. I just saw a picture where someone showed it on the lower part of the face. Is this right? Can anyone draw or show me where this is on an iron? Thanks PS Is a driver the same?

    Sergio warming up

    Anyone see it? He was using a weighted driver, was that the momentus version? Anyone else use a weighted driver? I tested one once, took several swings to get used to it. Not sure what I thought about it. I've heard that swinging a weighted club can slow your swing down, is that true?? Thanks

    Up the wall

    Been using the "up the wall" with great success. Have had a very flat backswing for a few years. Only problem is that I now hit the back of the ball sometimes. Is this normal and what can I do to overcome this? Thanks!

    From good to great

    If we can get some good responses I would think this should help a lot of us out. I would bet that most of us can hit fairly decent 3/4 shots on a consistent basis. My question........what's the best way to transition those good 3/4 swings into great full swings? Know what I mean? Seems like...

    Loading the shaft

    Can you guys feel the shaft loading on your irons? I'm thinking my shafts are too stiff as I cannot feel them load. I have S300's right now. A fitter mentioned I'm right on the border and I could go regular if I wanted to. Any thoughts?

    May have found a problem?

    OK, I was just hitting balls off my mat in my garage, just 1 handed swings, both left and right. When swinging just my left arm I had a difficult time striking the turf. I was trying to hit the turf to make sure I was hitting down. Out of 5 swings I would maybe hit the turf once. However...

    Weak right hand

    Can a weak right hand cause any problems? Mine seems turned to the left (my view looking down) maybe a little too much. Was it Jim that took some pictures a long time ago of a good grip? Anyone have a link?

    Leadbetter haters

    I know there are lots of "haters" around but I just rented David Leadbetter: The Modern Golf and I can honestly say it was pretty good. I'm no expert but I took several things away from it. It showed Chuck Howell's swing in super slow mo..........dude's got lag like Hogan. What do you guy's...

    Wanna fade...

    .....but not a slice. Any suggestions? Yesterday I used my driver on every hole (except par 3's) and hit a mixture of shots. A few draws...a few straights....a few fades....and one slice that I could tell the club opened up on the top of my backswing. Hit the ball well (for me) around...

    Right foot

    I've had a problem for years with my right foot coming off the ground too much and too early. I'm sure this is hurting my consistency. I've recently viewed swings of some pros and some have there's firmly planted very close to impact or even at impact. What do you think is causing this and...

    Too flat

    What's the best way to cure a flat backswing? When I pause 3/4 back the butt is pointing well outside the imaginary base line. If I hooked a lazer to my club the dot would be a couple feet out there. Is that a major problem? I assume the reason for my right to left ball flight?? Help...

    Slightly open

    I've heard that many pro's set up slightly open. Is this true? If so why. Can you attack the ball from the inside better? Thanks

    Swivel discs?

    Anyone ever used these? I know Croker likes them.

    Guys who hit it right to left

    I'm very familiar with a slice but am new to a draw. Hitting right to left and not sure whether to call it a big draw or a hook. I know there is no "standard" but how many yards do you guys plan on your ball going right to left? I was hitting some drives at a range the other day that were...

    Past parallel

    Float loader here and I have a tendency to go past parallel since I try to keep my wrists extra loose. Anyone else have this problem? No reason to go past correct, just problems? PS I'm aware of JD, you don't have to remind me....Thanks!!

    Big heads

    Hit some 460 heads today but the contact seemed very low on the face. Playing a 330 right now but I would like to go bigger. Any reason you think I was hitting them all low on the face? Is it just a matter of time to get used to the difference in size? Thanks
