I will be attending my 20th straight show.

People used to ask me (and some still do), "Why do you go to the show. You don't own a shop?"

The answer is easy.

I pride myself on knowing as much about golf as possible. People pay me $100 an hour to be as 'all knowing' as possible.

And now, 2200 members of this forum want me to be 'up on things.'

You simply CAN'T be as UP-TO-DATE as pssible without attending the Show and the Summits.

I have missed either in 20 years.

...I CAN'T WAIT!!!!:D:D:D:D:D

Will you have time to give a lesson while you're here in Orlando?

When is it exactly? I work near the convention center and there is a nice course right there. I am flexible, so whatever fits your schedule best.

Brian,

I've been lurking for a while, really enjoying reading your forum! This seems like a good time to ask a question, considering it is 11 degrees in Philadelphia and the closest I'm going to get to the Merchandise show is the golf channel.

I'd like to get your reaction to the various hybrid clubs available. There seem to be "wood-like" and "iron-like" designs. I'm a 28 handicapper who currently has two Nike CPR wood clubs (22 & 26 deg loft) and feel comfortable hitting those. Especially after reading your "Never Slice Again" article. My question is, now that I don't slice (I hope) should I get rid of my Cleveland 3 & 5 fairway woods which have offset and 1 deg closed face angle? I'm seeing some pulls now in that 3 wood. I'm actully considering either a single 4 wood or another utility club or two. (I don't care if I have zero fairway woods and 3 or 4 hybrids. As far as I can tell, the ball doesn't care either). I hit the 22 deg nike about 170 yards and the 3 wood about 200. I hardly ever use my driver. That will be the challenge later this year...

(I promised myself I wouldn't buy another club until I bought your DVDs first. I don't think my equipment is nearly as bad as the person using it. Looking forward to release 1.0);)
