I agree with you IG. I know that if I spent more time practicing I could lower my index. During certain times of the year when I can break away to the range more often and play more often my index drops. When I do not get to the range or out on the course often, my index rises.
I changed my irons for the first time in 3 years last month as I was not practicing enough to maintain proficiency with them. I went into a set of ultra forgiving irons that essentially allow me to hit the ball consistantly without spending all of the practice time required to stay proficient with my old irons. I want to spend more time practicing my game, but the guy who signs my paycheck likes me to show up on a regular basis and the spousal unit has a list of things she prefer that I would do ahead of heading off to the range.
Drivers and putters. Guilty as charged.

I have half a bag full of them now. My gamers do not change often, but I am always trying other ones out to see if I can get more out of the latest technology. I am a sucker for good deals. If I can get a component on the cheap or a run into a deal like I did with my TEE I can not refuse. I guess I am like most women are with shoes. We just can not turn down a good deal even if we already have 5 of them just like it at home.
