No one plays the same golf forever. As you develop, improve tempo, or even change physically, your swing changes too. The problem? Most players never change their gear to match their swing changes. Here’s why that could be affecting your progress.
You Aren't the Same Golfer You Were 2 Years Ago
Maybe your handicap dropped, maybe its increased. Maybe you've gained ten metres or ten yards. Your swing has evolved and your gear needs to evolve with it.
Old Gear, New Problems
What once suited your game has now turned into slices off the planet or snap-hooks that ruin your round. You may have hit that trusty 3-wood well when you walked into that golf retailer one afternoon, but now it's holding you back.
Key Signs Your Gear Isn’t Keeping Up:
The Club’s Job is to Complement Your Swing
When your clubs match your current swing, shots just feel better. Your tendencies align. Your misses aren't as large. Your scores come down. Golf becomes easier.
Don’t Let Sentiment Get in the Way
It's hard to let go of a club that used to split every fairway or never miss the green, but sentiment doesn't lower your scores. You need to let your tools work for your swing - not the other way around.
The Next Step in Your Swing Evolution
If you're serious about progressing in the game of golf, don't stop at your swing. Your clubs need to evolve with you to match your style, your swing, and your game.
