He doesn't have to produce anything to prove his story. PRO REPORT How To Choose A Set Of Clubs Have you walked into a golf store recently? If so, you may have looked around and thought to yourself: How in the world am I going to pick a set of clubs? As intimidating as sorting through the hundreds of options can be, knowing what to look for before you shop can quickly narrow your search. Here are a few questions you should be able to answer: 1- What are your intentions? Do you plan to play once a month, once a week, or until your significant other leaves you with your sun-scorched skin, cracked lips and worn-out grips? 2- What type of club design are you looking for? Irons range from very forgiving (large, cavity-back design) to not-so-forgiving (smaller, blade design). If you're just starting, the cavity-back design will be your best friend. More advanced players should consult pros or peers. 3- What type of shaft should you use? Shafts are basically designed with swing speed in mind. Your 98-year-old grandmother would use a much more flexible shaft than Tiger Woods uses. The slower your clubhead speed, the more flex you will want. The added flex gives you more clubhead speed, and thus distance. Swing speeds are fairly easy to gauge. Ask your pro or consult a qualified golf retailer. 4- What about graphite shafts? The beauty of graphite is that it is much lighter than steel. A lighter club is easier to swing, and graphite allows the same swing to produce more clubhead speed. Most women's and many juniors' clubs come standard with graphite shafts for this very reason. 5- What is custom fitting? Custom fitting can be done by most qualified professionals. During a session, the pro will fit the player for length of club, flex of shaft, lie angle, and grip size. The pro will also be able to recommend the general design of the clubhead to suit the player's swing. 6- How much should you spend? The less, the better -- obviously. But if you plan to devote some time to the game, you will begin to recognize some of the differences between clubs. Brand-name clubs are more expensive because of advertising, but also because of the testing they do and the warranties they offer. At the very least, ensure that your clubs have a good warranty that backs up the company's claims. ------------------------------------------------------------ Questions? Comments?

More specifically, on the left arm and wrist. The idea is to make your left arm and wrist very firm through impact to prevent either of them from breaking down. A broken down left side could lead to a fat or thin chip shot. This may be true, but in my own experiences, as well as what I have observed from other golfers, focusing on the left arm and wrist has led me to believe that there must be a better way. Too often, when people think of keeping their left side firm, they end up creating too much force on impact. They try to straighten out their left arm just before impact and by doing this, they produce unwanted clubhead speed. Almost every solidly struck bump-and-run chip shot I see from amateurs goes past the hole. Have you ever noticed this? It usually ends up short of the hole if it's hit heavily. What's worse is that I see a lot of these shots hit thin and going well past the hole. This is because the left arm actually lifts up too far in an effort to keep it straight and firm, and the club's leading edge hits the middle of the ball. Therefore, I think you would be better served to think of your right wrist while chipping. Try to keep the angle you form with your right wrist very constant through the impact area. This will simultaneously keep the left side firm, but you won't be as inclined to jerk your left side and produce too much force because you won't be focusing on your left side. This motion should feel like a pendulum. To hit the chip shot a bit shorter or further, simply alter the length of the swing. Your arms don't have to feel straight and rigid either; it should just feel as though everything is moving in unison. You will discover that by focusing on your right wrist, distance control with your chip shots will improve immensely. ------------------------------------------------------------ Questions? Comments?
