Wormburner or Bum warmer

You are a past-master of negativity. If I could ever read ONE SINGLE POST of yours that wasn't a complaint or sarcasm or some miserable utterance or other I would probably faint with the shock of it all

 Boa, I for one, appreciate reading Wormburner's posts and have taken a lot from them and resent the manner in which you post a reply, not only in this case but on numerous other occasions.

 Are you aware that maybe for some of us [ I am sure I am not alone ] the rudeness of some of your posts can be very tiresome, Perhaps you might reflect back on your posts earlier this year regarding Christianity values and try to align them with the content of some of your recent posts.

 Rudeness is a very unattractive feature and for me the value of this site is being degraded.

Thanks, but it aint worth it, he just launches into things every now and then and we move on. Its like golfing groundhog day, he winds his neck out and then back in again.

The most important aspect of lofts is not the number that the manufacturer has decided to stamp on the sole, but the gap between the lofts so that you can maintain a consistent distance gap between all irons.

1 Over. wrote (see)

Hacker you have a few sets of Irons?

Do you rotate them to Play with them? Or just have a favourite set and use the others sporadically?

I have just the one set and find it difficult enough to get a consistant couple of rounds together with these, God knows how you go about getting any consistancy if you swap Iron sets after every round!

I thought that originally myself 1 Over, however when you've got sets made around your preferences they're not THAT radically different to use, but despite them being very similar to one another there are subtle differences between my clubs, Cleveland Reds, R7 TP's and plain R7's, but I do get on well and very much enjoy using them all.

I rotate very little, the Clevelands and TP's are more or less the same with the exception of the Clevelands being a little more forgiving for off centre hits, its quite amazing what they'll let you get away with on a bad day, whilst the TP's arnt quite so tolerant when you get it wrong with the resultant distance, and accuracy loss, the standard R7's are stronger loft with a marginally wider sole, these are my winter usage or poor conditions clubs, slightly more forgiveness in those conditions, easier to get the ball off of soggy fairways etc, and lower loft to keep the ball out of the wind.

Sometimes rotation is as good as a rest, I'm speaking for myself but I do like to use something different once in a while to maintain prospective, and give myself a challenge when I'm swinging well rather than become perhaps stuck in a rutt with my game or potentially disillusioned with a single set of irons and talk myself into a change for changes sake.

This way for 'me' at least I get the best of both worlds while using and swinging these clubs within myself, if that makes sense.

Den

Having found absolutely NOTHING about you on the board I have assumed-probably correctly-that you have absolutely NOTHING original to say except to echo in a sycophantic way the self-righteous know-all that is wormburner who comes up with a constant load of tripe about famous golfers and their swings. These are never substantiated and are usually figments of WB's extremely fertile imagination

A Driver, seven degrees toed-out, regularly used by Hogan?- give it a rest!

Den-just be a proper man and criticise me yourself rather than siding with your favourite poster at the time!

And so another great thread gets dragged down into bickering......and what is the common denominator....?

 Did post a reply Regulator but have deleted it after seeing your post.

 Sorry you you are quite right. I will keep stumm.

 Back to your original thread thoughts lads.

Good move Den. Let's hope that the common denominator can pull out of yet another flat spin

Wormburner's flat spin comes as a result of his being totally unable to find bona fide evidence of Hogan's amazingly toed-out driver!

So the common denominator between my original quetsion and the tone of some of the replies has to be..Ego's.

I THOUGHT(foolishly, it seemed) that your original thread was useful and interesting and worthy of several good replies and I tried to answer it sensibly from playing golf for as long as many members have been alive and having seen many,many changes in golf equipment pertinent to your thread.

One particular individual then switched the entire thing to talk of Hogan's incredible(yes,definitely!!) 7 degree toed-out driver-absolutely NOTHING to do with LOFT.

Sorry!

Have these posts that diverted the discussion to Hogan and his "7 degree toed-out driver" been deleted or something?
