My new favorite club

This is fast becoming my most used club. Everytime I put it away, something happens and I end going back to it again and again.
The first thing I did was pull the shaft and spine and flo it. It swingweights heavy at F8 but seems to really get through to the target well. I do find my back gets quite sore after an hour or two of practice with it, but that cant be helped. Heres a few pics, one of the club being worked on, one at rest, and one of a nice divot showing my in to out swing path, hope you like it.

2 things make that club useless to me:

1) I live in East TN

2) Since it's Lyle's, it's obviously left-handed

I have absolutely no use for that club, Lyle.

VERY funny. I opened this up thinking "I wonder if it's gonna be a 2-iron or something..." Even after the description I was still expecting something legit. A+.

King,

I know, I just talked to my Dad in the PEg. I am going up there Monday till Friday to play some golf. I am sure Cottonwood and Transcona are open at least. I simply cannot take this any longer and need to get it out of my system. I seriously am close to killing someone.

That was comical, not as much as the 80* sunny days we've had the past two days of practise though.

Nice addition there Lyle.

I don't think that club meets the definition of "plain and simple."

That's what you get for choosing plastic over Cast, Forged or even Stainless.


Still trying to figure out if my Husqvarna Chainsaw or Toro Weedwacker could classify as a 14th club. I am quite certain I could make room in my bag.

I mean, come on, is this going to be your next club set?

... that's what you get for bringing along a kid set to do a man's job
