Golf Quote
Ben Hogan
I play with friends, but we don't play friendly games.
Relax? How can anybody relax and play golf? You have to grip the club don't you?
As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round.

Golf joke of the week
The schoolteacher was taking her first golfing lesson. "Is the word spelt p-u-t or p-u-t-t?" she asked the instructor. "P-u-t-t is correct," he replied. "Put means to place a thing where you want it. Putt means merely a vain attempt to do the same thing."
Single Length Golf Clubs
Advantages
- Because each iron is the same length (roughly equivalent to a 7 iron) your set up position will be the same with each club in the set. You will be standing the same distance from the ball with each club. The ball position (forward or back in relation to your feet) will be the same for each club.
- Because all clubs in the set are the same length and have the same lie angle your swing plane will be identical for each club. With conventional clubs the swing plane with the short irons is more upright (than a 7 iron) and more flat with the longer irons. Theoretically it is easier to master one swing plane than multiple swing planes.
- As the shafts are all the same length and the heads all weigh the same each club will have an identical shaft flex and swing weight.
- MOI (moment of inertia) will be identical for each club.
- The bounce angle and offset for each club is identical (with the exception of the sand wedge).
