I’m sure you’ve tried Dickens cider.
Apparently it’s not as good as beer!
Update for new irons
Well actually pretty old irons nowDriver TaylorMade M2 10.5 degrees Reg (I think)
Mini Driver TaylorMade SLDR Stiff
3h and 4h TaylorMade RBZ 19 and 22 degrees Reg
4 to PW Maxfli Australian Blades with Rifle shafts
SW TalyorMade ATV 54 degrees
LW Cleveland RTX3 60 degree
Putter Nike Method Matters B1 07Ball Srixon ZStar Yellow
Bag Cleveland something or other
What happened to the R11s?
Sitting in a corner
They need regrippujg and at least one reshafting
I suspect that getting them in condition for sale will cost as much as selling them!
Isn’t regrippujg that Swedish cider?
I believe so
Like Schmucky I prefer a Mercury Draught
Or a nice Bulmers1 user liked this post.

What happened to the R11s?
I decided to move to the blades to see how they go
They basically gave me no choice but to leave them in when my first ever shot with one of them on a golf course left me a 1ft tap in eagle
It’s hard to argue with that

So that’s a maybe?

It’ll be interesting to see what the stats say
At some point you will move past the clangers – like not getting out of bunkers and 3 putts and double chips – and on to shots lost from missing opportunities – like not getting up and down from a simple spot or missing a green with a wedge.
I’m thinking about how I need to tweak my shots lost system because it currently compares my short game to theoretical perfection of always getting up and down, but even the pros don’t do that and if I pmleave my approach short sided or in a bunker then the approach has to take a share of the blame.I think it’s good to have some clarity about where you can get the most bang for your improvement buck.

No question – golf will find your weakness and shove them in your face!
Of course you’re not a learner so my thoughts about bunkers was out of context in your thread – it’s just a topic I find interesting and your comment about bunkers triggered me!

15 (3×1) and 11 (3W 1×1) = 26 Need a few more rounds like this to get some shots back for the upcoming match.
So you can post 40 and blow Bump away?
Good stuff Deege
I love some golf stats!
It will be interesting to see how the course management test pans out, – Piggy and I had a good chat about that subject a little while ago and it’s an interesting one
I think it is a pretty important thing for me to figure out. For me, as you can see, having an approach of more than 130m puts a fairway wood in my hand, where for *some* people, that might be a 9 iron. So it’s going to be an important issue to know whether my scoring is likely to be better from laying up or from going for it and dealing with the consequences. Significantly improving my bunker play in the last 12 months has made me more inclined to go for it unless there is potential water hazard problems.
But will be interesting to see first whether this comes up terribly often in a round, and secondly whether there is any significant difference in outcome depending on the choice made.
I have believed for a while that learners need to prioritise being able to confidently get out of bunkers to allow them to take on approach shots with bunkers as a miss saver (and also when you need to punch to a green the bunker can be a great short or back stop).
Everyone needs to play to their strengths and weaknesses but having that sort of safety net can be a huge benefit for riskier shots.
