It seems like every few months a big name brand is coming out with another $400 driver that is “longer and straighter” than the last.

While I do believe in the improvement of technology, I don’t believe in shelling out $400 for a new driver every few months.

I’ve been thinking about an idea to completely flip the golf club industry on its head, and give every player the opportunity to get the brand new drivers, for less. I would love your thoughts below.

I’ve noticed an on going dissatisfaction with the big name club companies. I see two big problems:

The first problem is how quickly your clubs are becoming obsolete.

It can be frustrating to buy a brand new $400 driver that will become obsolete in 6 months or less.

Unless you want to shell out another $400 (and trade yours in for $50), you’ll be stuck with second-rate technology.

The second problem is finding a driver that fits your game (for less money).

Right now there are three unattractive options for finding a new driver.

The first is to go to a big retailer like Dick’s or Golf Galaxy, and try out the club on their simulator. Last time I was in there I hit a 5wd 377 yards. That wasn’t reliable feedback to say the least.

You could also go to a custom club technician. He or she can put you on the trackman, have you hit a bunch of drivers, and find the club that fits you best. By the end of the session however, your $400 driver just became $800.

Last you could order a driver out of a catalog and cross your fingers it’s the right one. For 400 bucks that is quite a gamble.

What if golfers had an opportunity to get up to date technology that fits their game, without shelling out more money than they should?

How It Would Work:

For one low monthly fee, you can get the most up to date driver in your bag.

It would be a bit like Netflix for drivers (when they still shipped DVDs)

You can try the driver for as long as you want.

If you don’t like it, send it back and pick another one to try. You can do this as many times as you’d like, all for one monthly fee.

If you find a driver you like, and you want to keep it for good, you’ll pay the monthly fee up until you’ve paid the retail price. Never more.

If you want to upgrade to the newest driver every season, you can do that too.

As a member you’ll be able to have the top of the line golf technology in your bag every season, for less than it would cost to buy a new driver every two years.

What do you think?

I have contacts in place, and a team of computer programmers ready to go. But before I move forward, I need to know if you would be interested.

If you think this is something you would be interested in, put “I LIKE!” in the comments below. I’d also appreciate it if you would share it on twitter and facebook, or maybe email it to the other guys in your foursome.

The fluid transition combined with athletic balance make it a move many only dream to emulate.

The following is a collection of quick videos and photos of the legendary golf swing of Sir Charles.

Barkley has spend time with world renowned golf instructors, and countless hours on the range. Here is the fruit of his labor…

Hopefully your golf swing hasn’t suffered, but the man deserves a proper shrine.

It’s tough to imagine there is a worse golf swing on the planet. What do you think?

Ok, Lets Get Started

My name is Wes Reynolds, I am Director of Instruction at Tip It Out golf.

I wrote this report to reveal the truth about what it takes to ACTUALLY hit a draw.

I’ve spent the last few years talking with players and I discovered that a draw is one of the most elusive shots in the game. For some reason so many players struggle to hit it.

Being the inquisitive type that I am, I HAD to find out why.

What I discovered completely blew my mind.

I found information from hundreds of “experts” on the topic. I spent 19 hours on YouTube, I thumbed through 26 past issues of Golf Digest, I read 52 blog posts, and I even spent a few too many hours on 4 major golf forums.

Everything I found was the same old recycled garbage that has 80% of the golf world hitting an uncontrollable slice that flies 15-20 yards SHORTER than it should.

Needless to say I was fed up with what I found, so I went on a mission to uncover the truth about hitting a draw.

As I typically do, I turned to science for an answer that is based on FACTS.

The thing I love about science — more specifically physics — is, scientific proof has no opinion. Scientists don’t just “think” they know something because that’s what it “feels” like it should be.

I know A TON of players who try to change their golf swing by doing what they FEEL like they should do. There is no rhyme or reason for the adjustments — and as a result — their game almost always gets worse. You might have even met this type of guy on the range that starts spouting off tips based on nothing but the whims of his uninformed opinion.

Now physicists on the other hand, they actually search for the answers. They use technology, they conduct experiments, and they draw conclusions based on the evidence they gather.

I bet that sounds a bit more involved than your average session at the range. But don’t worry, we don’t need to understand the nitty-gritty calculations in order to enjoy the full benefits of the world’s best golf information.

The fact is, science-based golf instruction is the most logical instruction there is, as long as the player isn’t bound by the limitations set by obsolete information.

The Truth About Hitting A Draw

If you struggle with a slice, or if you can’t hit a draw to save your life, it really isn’t your fault.

I talk with players every day who still can’t get it, even though they tell me they:

• Read tons of books
• Watch hours of YouTube videos
• Take hours of lessons at $100 per (OR MORE!)
• Change their grip
• Flatten their swing
• …plus a whole lot more

The truth is, most of those sources do not address the facts. Most of those sources were put together using INCOMPLETE information.

And if you were never told how the golf swing ACTUALLY works, the game is definitely WAY harder than it needs to be.

If you want to CONTROL the curve of your golf ball, you have to understand how the science of the golf swing, and you have to know how to CONTROL your golf club.

It isn’t as difficult as you might think because everyone who has a golf swing is already manipulating the club in some way, shape, or form.

You simply need the RIGHT information so you can learn the RIGHT WAY to manipulate your golf club.

In Come’s Physics

This is why golf physicists are brilliant. They use a whole discipline of science to figuring this stuff out.

The problem is, they’re scientists.

If you’ve ever read a physics theory, written by a physicist, you know what I mean. They don’t exactly write using “common” language, and its often difficult to get clear actionable fixes out of the stuff.

A book titled The Physics of The Golf Swing is a perfect example of what I mean. Below is a photo from The Physics of Golf. Its trying to explain the mechanics of the downswing.

(Below is a photo from the physics of the golf swing to give you a little taste of how they do it.)

If you’re into that type of thing, more power to you.

But if you’re like me, you’re looking for a quick and easy way to improve your golf swing so it actually sticks.

The truth about how to hit a draw is, it takes a scientific understanding of impact to pull off. Until recently no one but the top pros in the world had access to the information, so pros went passing on inaccurate information.

Get The Science of How To Hit a Draw in Easy to Understand Terms

What I’ve done is taken the science of how to hit a draw, and translated it into every day terminology you can apply directly to your swing.

I’ve developed a set of easy to follow adjustments you can use to hit an ACCURATE draw on a regular basis.

You see, the science of the game deals with the facts, and I’m not the type of person who can share anything but the best there is. Science is the best there is.

I’m looking for a select group of serious players who are interested in a simple eBook that reveals “The New Law of Hitting a Draw.” The book is a work in progress, so I’m offering it at a discounted price in exchange for your feedback.

Golf is a game of information. The person who has more, and knows what to do with it, lowers their scores. This is one of the core principles of Intelligent Improvement.

I came across this video by Dennis Sales at Button Hole in Providence, Rhode Island.

The video delivers a great example of how having more information helps you make better decisions.

You’ll make better decisions both on the golf course and at the practice tee.

Dennis shows how to use the information you have about your game, your tendencies, and your capabilities.

The more you know, the better you get. The difficulty is know WHERE to look for places to improve. Dennis discusses a good place in this short 5 minute video:

Even if you aren’t keeping meticulous statistics, by being more aware of your tendencies, and capabilities, you are going to be able to make better decisions.

Better decisions will put you in better spots on the golf course more often, which ultimately leads to lower scores.

What tips do you have to help players gather more information and make better decisions?

For more, you can follow Dennis Sales on Twitter.

As you may or may not know, about 80% of players hit a slice.

When we think about all the trainers, tips, technology, and experts we have available,

The fact that 80% still hit a slice is ABSURD!

But to be honest, I don’t blame the players.

No matter how hard you looked, no matter how many magazines you read, or how many videos you watched, you would NOT have found THE TRUTH about fixing your slice and hitting a draw.

The reason is, for the past hundred years or so, no one has TRULY KNOWN how to curve the golf ball.

Yes, I am saying…GOLF PROS WERE WRONG.

They meant well, they really did…they were just wrong.

They didn’t have the information they needed. They didn’t have science.

They’ve been feeding players bad information on how to hit a draw for as long as the game has been around.

So What Changed?

In comes physics.

The real scientists started conducting experiments in golf…and their results were astounding.

The problem is, as scientists often do, they just developed theories.

What they discovered is amazing… but its all encoded in confusing scientific language with no practical suggestions for applying what they found.

I have been getting a ton of players asking me about how to hit a draw, how to fix their slice, and how to have more accuracy from tee to green…

I’m thinking about putting together a free comprehensive resource to answer all of those questions, but I have to be honest…

I’m a little reluctant.

I won’t make any friends posting THE FACTS, and I especially won’t warm the hearts of golf pros who have been teaching players THE WRONG WAY for years.

That alone has kept me from sharing this…

But, despite what the rest of the golf industry might think of Tip It Out, I’m thinking of revealing the TRUTH about how to create a ball flight you can control on a regular basis.

It will cover how to hit a draw, how to fix your slice, and how to curve it with control IN SIMPLE TERMS…

BUT….I’m a perfectionist, and this definitely won’t be a small project.

And because of that, I need to know…

– What do you think?
– Should I do this?
– Would you be interested?

Your feedback and thoughts are absolutely the fuel that keeps me going.

And I don’t even want to think about doing this unless there is enough potential interest.

Anyway, if you have a second, please leave a comment below and let me know what you think.

It would mean a lot to me, and I’ll do my best to respond to each and every comment.

Because today’s players are so physically gifted and incredibly athletic, many believe separation from the field is almost impossible.

I agree that golf is deeper than it’s ever been, but I don’t believe that separation from the pack is as unattainable as is being suggested by the “experts.” In my opinion, no matter the level of play, one fact remains constant: What you think, and how you choose to perceive each moment, will ultimately dictate your long term outcome.

Confidence Is NOT Results Based

It’s been taught that confidence is based on results. If you play at a high level, you’re confidence will increase. If you perform poorly, your confidence will (and should) decrease. It’s true, when you’re playing well, confidence will definitely rise, creating a snowball of momentum. But here’s where I take another stance, and believe this next point is where the elite stand out from the rest: They understand confidence is a choice!

The Truth About Confidence

Confidence doesn’t have to strictly be results-based. No matter the type of shot you hit or the round you played, you have a choice to draw from past moments when you were playing your best, and incorporate them into your present thinking. Nothing can stop you from believing in your capabilities — not a bad shot, score, peer, or coach. You’re in total control of what you think of yourself.

The key to sustaining this confidence, however, isn’t simply the THOUGHT of those positive moments. The main ingredient is the emotion it elicits. Drawing from past confident situations is simply about tapping into the emotion of the moment, and incorporating it into right now.

It’s counter intuitive to think you can feel good about your game when you’re playing poorly, because that’s all you’ve been taught. You’ve been programmed to believe that you must be a slave to results — the result of your play determines your level of confidence. This, in my opinion, is false and is a key factor holding most players from reaching their next plateau.

The stress that this type of belief initiates can be paralyzing, and make performing well consistently almost impossible. If, instead, you understood that you’re in total control of your confidence levels, regardless of outcome, an instant peace over your long term process becomes possible.

Make The Choice

This choice is a mindset, and needs to be practiced on a regular basis. Because it’s become habitual to believe poor play equals less confidence, it’s important to take time each day to create new, more powerful mental habits. Commit yourself to focusing on the specifics that make you believe you deserve to reach the next level — feel the emotion those details create.

Become immersed and mentally get lost in the feeling of confidence you can consciously manifest. You’re not a slave to results. Self-belief is in your hands at all times. Focus on why you deserve success, the details of the situation, and the intense positive emotion they elicit. Control your confidence.

Their latest campaign on the PGA Tour revolves around the “fact” that their 3wd is 17 yards longer than last years model. At least I think that is what they’re comparing the RBZ to.

Regardless, the fact is RocketBallz has generated RocketBuzz (witty, I know)…and along with that buzz comes a number of different opinions.

So what I’ve done is collect opinions from either side of the debate, then asked you to weight in with what you think in the comments.

I found quite a bit of prace for the TaylorMade RocketBallzvia Twitter. Here are a few tweets I received about the RBZ…

Without question, there are a lot of happy players putting the new technology to work.

But what about the flip side?

I found this video by Mark Crossfield. In it he conducts a side-by-side comparison between the RBZ 3wd and last years Superfast 2.0 3wd. Watch it to see what he discovers…

What do you think?

There are without a doubt varying opinions concerning the hype.

From what I’ve seen, people who have had a chance to hit the club…love it!

Most of the detractors are people who simply don’t buy the hype…which might also be valid.

What do you think of the RBZ hype? True? Weak? Other? Does it even need to go 17 yards further for you to love it?

Let us know in the comments.

The Nike VRs (s is for speed) is engineered to produce SPEED for increased distance.

There aren’t many of NEW features beyond the NexCor, Str8-Fit and slick design, but it is a solid club overall.

That isn’t to say it performs any worse than others on the market.

If you’re a long time Nike fan, you’ll happily fall in love with the Nike VRs driver.

Nike VRs Tech Specs

The Nike VRs driver has a 460cc head.

The Nike Fubuki K shaft comes in the standard, A, R, S, X flexes. Each Shaft ranges from 53g up to 59g in weight.

The driver does come with the adjustable wrench and head cover.

Nike VRs Driver Review – Video

I found a well rounded, independent review by Mark Crossfield (AskGolfGuru). He provides a great first hand account of his test of the Nike VRs driver. Check it out:

Nike VRs Driver Review Conclusion

Every aspect of the Nike VRs driver is designed for speed. It contains an aerodynamic head that is integrated with NexcCOR face technology. The Nexcor technology uses a multi-thickness design. Basically, it is thickest in the middle and it gradually becomes thinner as you move towards the perimeter. For those of you who love adjustability, you will also enjoy the improved Str8-Fit technology.

This is a nice looking club with the flexibility to fit just about any players game. I would recommend giving it a look if you’re on the market for a new driver.

Check Out the price of the Nike VR S Driver (460cc) on Amazon.

The 712 model (712 = 2012) is strong addition to the long line of impressive AP2 models.

Titleist was able to increase the irons moment of inertia (MOI) without eliminating the “playablity” of the club. Titleist was able to do this using two tungsten plugs in the club head. This consequently puts more weight on the perimeter which increases MOI.

The AP2 712’s MOI is 7% more than the AP2 710 model

What Do Players Think?

The overall consensus was positive towards the AP2. Titleist was able to maintain the feel players love about the AP2 while moving more weight to the perimeter.

The knock on the club was a slight loss in distance.

Titleist AP2 712 Technology

The forged carbon steel body has two tungsten plugs to help increase moment of inertial by 7 percent. The result is more shots starting on line and traveling a predictable distance. The cavity has an aluminum-elastomer insert to improve feel. A narrower sole in short irons also helps with how the club interacts with the turf through impact.

Whether you are a Titleist fan or not, the AP2 712 is worth a look. It may just be the model that turns you into a super fan for many years to come.

We have all seen the 300 yard drives and precision iron shots that tour players make look so effortless and easy.

How do they make it look so simple?

Well I can assure you no two players on tour have the same swing, yet they all somehow have the ability to hit it long and straight.

Even though every swing is different, the one thing almost all PGA tour players have in common is their impact position. Players ranging from Jim Furyk to Tiger Woods all find a way to get the club into an efficient position at the bottom of their swing.

There is no “right” way to swing a golf club, but learning your capabilities can help you to find the sweet spot more often. Here are 3 simple drills to improve your impact:

1. Water Bottle Behind Your Ball

1) Place a water bottle about 2 feet behind your ball.

2) Try to hit the ball without hitting the water bottle. This will force you to swing more in-to-out…which will help to cure that nasty slice of yours.

It will also give you immediate feedback; if you hit the bottle, your swing path was too steep. If you can manage to the club inside the bottle, you should be hitting a nice draw in no time.

2. First Then Turf

This next drill will help you hit the ball first (then turf) with your irons. Having the left-wrist break down through impact (for a righty), causing a “scoop,” is a common fault among players.

The impact position that produces consistent solid contact has the hands in front of the ball.

Try this; put a towel down, kneel on it, and try to hit the ball with the butt end of your club. It sounds silly, but the challenge of making contact will force you to keep your hands in front of the ball. Most players naturally make the adjustment after a few hard earned whiffs.

When you go back to taking full swings standing upright the feeling of having your hands in front of the ball through impact will be well ingrained.

3. The Walk-Through

Weight distribution is an often overlooked aspect of the golf swing and most players could do it better.

Typically amateurs keep too much weight on their back foot through the downswing, causing them to throw their hands at the ball. This results in either a nose-dive hook or spinning slice.

Ideally we want our weight on our front foot at impact, with our belt buckle pointing at the target.

Try the walk-through drill; On your downswing, throw your back leg through, literally taking a step towards your target. By physically picking up your leg and stepping through, you will have no choice BUT to transfer your weight to your front foot.

Having a poor impact position can result in a variety of off target mishits that do nothing more than grown our frustration on the course.

As part of the pursuit for intelligent improvement, work on the above golf tips. They will improve your club’s path, angle of attack, hand position and weight distribution. Mastering these elements will result in a more consistent impact position that regularly creates on target shots.
