  1. Thanks for all the advice guys. Joe is there any shaft/head combos in particular that you think might help? Nick
  2. 1. Check your swing on the video, see if you are casting or not. 2. Go w/ a higher kick point shaft, stiffer tip shaft and change the loft of your driver. 3. Try low spin and low launch balls. Ideally, You should be around 14*- 16* on launch angle and in the low 3000 rpm on the spin rate, It's all depending on your handicap and how good of a striker you are and not to forget also on the course condition you are playing ( windy, hard fairway, soft fairway, flat or hilly course, etc ). At your swing speed , a smash factor over 1.45 is pretty good already. Don't forget, Do not to compare it to much w/ a tour players and tour course condition, It's just not a fair comparison at all. I've tried a US Open course condition, I can hit the ball 20 - 30 yards longer than normal. Good Luck! Joe :cool: Joe I'm playing the ONE black but it wasn't the ball I used on the monitor or fitting. I had a video lesson the Sunday after picking it up I do loose the hinge in my wrists a little early at times but definately wasn't casting the club. I do tee the ball up high at least half a balls width above the top edge of the driver at address and an inch or so inside my left heel. My swing path is from the inside with my bad shot usually a hook. Nick
  3. Ok just wanting some oppinions really are the numbers I'm producing helping or hindering my game? Before 9.5* R7 TP with Fuji 757. Club spd 95mph, Ball Spd 126mph, Smash 1.33, Launch 17.1*, Spin 4200rpm After this initial test I was told I needed to lower the about 2-3* and lower my spin about 1000rpm, which doesn't seem to have happened. After Nak NP-1 9* with Accra SC65. Club spd 95mph, Ball Spd 137mph, Smash 1.45, Launch 20.8*, Spin 4250rpm What would you guys suggest? Thanks Nick
  4. Most of my cousins and I wear them mainly due to the fact we have lost three members of family to cancer in the last twelve months.
  5. I cant wait for this video its going to be awesome, and I have a feeling that it will end up costing me some money in the long run, maybe even an all RC bag. :money:
  6. Those CBs look really nice and understated, any chance of a shot from address?
  7. Thanks for the help guys I should see the differences for myself in the next couple of days when I go and pick them up from the fitters. Nick
  8. I was just wondering how the two brands compare as I have been recomended to go from using Rifle 6.0 to either Nippon 950 or 1050 shafts in my irons, from looking at the specs of each there is around a thirty gram difference in the weight of the shafts what are the likely effects of such a large drop? Nick
  9. The title says it all really I am selling an 8.5* Taylormade R7 Tour clubhead and wrench. The condition is excellent with only some minor scuff marks on the sole. I have photos available for anyone whos interested. Price $575 ono shipped & paypaled. Nick
  10. Thanks guys, I've never heard of Ashton so I guess they dont make it to the uk. Nick
  11. I'm looking for advice on a new driver, the three optins i'm contemplating are: Nakashima NP-1 420. Tourstage X-Drive 405. Cleveland Launcher Comp. I curently play a TM R7 TP with a stiff 757 in it, ss ~105mph. Any info on them would be gratefully accepted. Nick
