The WeekEnd Golfer

When we were in Dallas late in February for some early power golf I stopped in at the Golfsmith store and bought a few components. First on the agenda was a 52 degree wedge -- something I haven't had for about five years. Yes, I've had that famous 8 degree gap between the PW and the SW, and I felt it was time to plug it.

Then there was the hybrid issue. I've been watching a couple of my buddies hit their hybrids for a few months, and decided it was about time to take the plunge. I'm one of those guys who actually likes hitting the long irons, but it's something you have to do regularly or you really lose confidence in them. I suspect it is a lot easier to just pick up a 19 degree hybrid once or twice a round and hit it nice and solid.

I finally got around to assembling these two clubs before our weekend rounds last week. And then had a chance to hit them quite a bit on the weekend. I really like the look and feel of both of them, and so far they've been working really well for me.
