I am an amateur, age 65, who started golfing at age 60. I am a 7
handicap and unlikely to go lower-- not because my swing is defective,
but because I am never going to play more than weekly. Even when I
can
hit all the fairways and all the greens (unlikely) I will still
struggle
to score- because of short game. I will always be only fair at
chipping and putting.


Still getting 230 carry out of your 2-iron?


On close mown fairways 230 yards (not carry) is easy. Just keep it
low and down the middle and it rolls and rolls. I have never said
"carry," that is a typical RSG fabrication-- just your driving urge to
prove someone wrong, attack, attack! Your need to do that is
symptomatic of what is wrong with this forum--and the reason most
serious golfers no longer participate in this discussion.

Funny you didn't mention the "rolls and rolls" part when you were
bragging about it, but no matter.


I wonder what you'll have to brag about when you're 65.


Why am I not surprised that you don't understand that one doesn't need
to brag about anything?


For the record, how far does it carry?


Who cares? Go meet up with the guy from alt.skiing.alpine who wants
to kick your ass.


LOL

You should really look at who you're aligning yourself with a little
more closely, Edwin (and BTW, it's *rec*.skiing.alpine). Scott Abraham
is the only guy to ever get himself banned by court order from posting
to a newsgroup.
