Now how about a guy that hits it off the heel with a Driver? What's up with that?


Each day you should give thanks for this type of golfer. He/she brings you reshafting business! Honestly, in this case the golfer is trying for a distance record - swinging hard and thus extending the club and trying to do it with arms and shoulders only - look for lack of lower body turn. Also look for a baseball swing. I have club scrapes on the wall behind the golfers. Where is the clubhead when hands reach waist level on backswing?  Answer: behind the body!  Upon completion of swing - does the golfer lose balance or spin like a little kid learning to hit a baseball? For these golfers a 40" driver is "too long".

My advice: Golf spelled backwards is "flog". Take it easy and feel the clubhead swing THROUGH the ball.  Sweep through a spot 4-6 inches ahead of the tee. All this can be learned while on hold when calling Golfsmith. Harvey Penick speaks from the grave!  I speak from the experience of watching people destroy my clubs and store walls! Ain't life grand?
