With no data to suppport my hypothesis, I think the

I stop blading simple chip shots and the putter swing stops wobbling, I'll be as

Tflan,
I know what you mean. I've seen so many crappy repairs from "pro's" I lost count. The sad part is the customers buy into this 'it always turns out this way' line that people have come to expect it. Of course we know you can pull most any head without destroying the thing. But we bite our

I'm glad to see somebody out there has their balls under control. Our club
played it's net amateur qualifier last weekend at a course I had not played
before in a strong wind - 20-25mph all day). I had a net 71 going into the
last hole, which would have given me a runner up slot in my

Never argue with a pro. He's a pro you know! Don't all pros work for nothing?
A friend of my has a Titleist 975K driver. He
asked me to pull the shaft from the head so that he could install a shaft he
wanted to try. I agreed to do it. He was playing in a group behind mine
yesterday so I waited for him. He came in about 1/2 hour after I had finished.

Al,
Speak for yourself, Al Taylor. After 6 months off for shoulder surgery
repairs, all drugged up for the kidney transplant and with a band of
dialysis fat (peritoneal fluid is a sugar solution) still around the lower
middle, I started playing again three weeks ago. Among seven sloppy

Alan,
Of all the answers I've seen so far, I personally resonate with yours.
That's not to say that I agree it's the right answer -- whatever that is.
Just that I want to talk about it...

Well Dave,
I read the rest, now here is the best. Reason is: 1) More golfers in last
decade? I donno, doubled the population? New golfers = higher scores and
averages. 2) Old pharts. We, that's right, you included, are getting
older (thank goodness), some with larger girths, and are not w
I was hoping for a Ti 2.5 for my driver. Christmas is still coming,
so there is hope.

Hi Dave,
My two cents worth, after seconding Bernie's observations.
Do you know if the average age of players has changed over the time period? In my case
better equipment has meant my handicap has held steady and not gone downhill. Another
factor could be that more women have handicaps now. I
Dave,
Fun question for someone who's played golf for 62 years. Just my
observations and opinions...
First, I think Cub is right. The number of poorly taught players has
dramatically increased. And with the cost to play golf today, I would bet
the majority of players are playing less often than th

think we play to score well, perhaps not even the pro's. I think we play
for the challenge of hitting the ball well. And we play because it is an
escape from our daily lives. And we play because it is a male
Largely because "learning" technology has not increased overall, despite the
increase in numbers of "better" club technology and ball technology. The
masses of golf instructors are not being taught "how to help students learn"
or even how human being learn a motor skill, or even that there is a be
I thought it stood for eXtra Long -- longer than normal raw shaft length?
One of the unique things about the TT Extra Lite was it had a similar
step pattern to what the TX-90 does now -- lots of small steps near the
tip of the shaft.

John,
Do you sell the Nippon Steel shafts? If so, can you point me to a URL that
lists them and your prices. I found mention of you possibly carrying them
on your KZG page.

DaveT,
I haven't studied this nor given it much thought, so this is OMHO: Could it
be that more people are now playing golf? Most of which are probably
occasional or weekend golfers. I know more children seem to be playing, as
well as what appears to be an increase in senior citizens taking up
