there might be a little colorful language in here, im pissed....sorry :blackeye: so im driving to work this morning, im going down a slight hill thats slightly turning to the left, im going about 40 MPH, in 4th gear...it rained a bit here and there, so the roads are a little slick. its blacktop too. at the last half second, i notice a f**king glass jug (a little bigger than a plastic milk gallon) right in front of me. so i swerve, and being that my RX-8 is real wheel drive, i lose control and start sliding hard to the right...making my right front tire go into a f**king 2 and a half foot deep pothole (mind you im going 40 MPH) on the curb, bending my rim and axle to the point where the actual tire is rubbing against the wheel well. my steering wheel fails, and as much as i turn it, my car is going all over the place. i shift down to 2nd and that helps slightly. thank the lord there was nobody anywhere near me. so i managed to get into a parking lot and surveyed the damage. my wheel well is f**king dented, rim is REALLY dented, and my axle is going to need one hell of an alignment. f**king hell. so...am i able to get any $$ from the municipality i was in because of the pothole? or because i lost control is it my fault? should i call a lawyer? i have a good driving record (with the exception of a few speeding tickets back in college), and comprehensive insurance coverage, so im sure that will be helpful...but im just so f**king pissed, i want to do more...is there more i can do? thanks guys... -sammy

its a beat up old chevy, 4 ludes of LSD, and a bottle of tequila....bumpy rides, drove around and saw the future, blurry about the past..... makes perfect sense.

lukey's woman looks fine as hell.

welcome! check out the buy/sell/trade section -sammy

good. emphasis on slow as well as you said, if you get quick when youre trying to turn a natural fade flight into a draw you might kill someone standing anywhere to your left. with the weight turn, a good point of reference is to have is at the top of your backswing, you want your left shoulder pointing at the ball. you mentioned that you have problems releasing sometimes, but sometimes thats caused by not making a big enough turn and not getting behind the ball enough. this is my problem sometime, if im sore or tired and get lazy and dont make a proper turn, my normal high draw turns into a big high block to the right (we called it the "high-right-weak-s**t") when i played in college. so....tempo, weight turn, roll the wrists slightly. good luck!

mike, what you also need to consider is that the swing you make with the driver you will mimic in all of your other clubs. some suggestions to hit a draw... 1 - drop your right foot back a little and swing along your foot-line, and attempt to srike the inside-back of the ball. 2 - along with working on your weight shift, strengthen your grip and concentrate on rolling your right hand over your left at impact. good luck!

sweet driver :wink: its my favorite of all time, mos def. i bought the head only of mine for $150. if you have trouble getting rid of it, which you shouldnt, gimme a shout, id love to pick up another one.

dub is def. correct. a lot of people who naturally fade the ball and attempt to start drawing it end up hitting mean ass snipe hooks. a swingpath such as you described in the drill WILL promote a right to left ballflight IF and only IF you are squaring the clubface at the correct moment. you can still make this swing and if your face is open you will still block it off to the right with a driver, and worse, result in the dreaded "s" word in your irons. so, its a good drill to practice, but remember that a change in swingpath is going to require you to think of the location of the clubface at impact.

the bore thru will indeed make the tip a tad firmer... in my experience, ive always had a higher ballflight with a YS series , at one point i had both that and a prolaunch in my old 983K. the YS-6+ will in turn launch it a little lower than a regular YS-6, because its a few grams heavier also, you could add a little lead tape to the sole to weight it down a little, lowering the CG which will promote a higher launch. good luck! -sammy

mizuno.

indeedy they do... ive seen them in quirky lofts too, 55's and 59's...

its lead tape. i saw it at lacosta and at augusta. in the pic you can see it starts in the middle towards the heel-end of the ignite logo and stretches another inch or so past the end of the logo, towards the heel

only one solution: :beer2: good luck tomorrow man...

also, as i was saying... http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...ge=hruby/050412

lol i hear ya man... how are the 37's treating you?

lots of options as mike said! my opinion, id buy something used thats in excellent shape and put a killer shaft in it. or...i happened to hit the 905T yesterday...i highly recommend it, and was thinking of picking it up myself... good luck with the search, let us know how it goes! -sammy

see my reply above, it helped me. :blackeye:
