Subject: Made my Break 90 Goal - Outstanding Clubs for a New Golfer

After much prodding from my son, I “dove into” golf buying a set of 1 Irons July of last year. I “found “ 1 Iron in researching the insanity I perceived in each club being a different length when using my son’s clubs the very few times I golfed with him. The idea that your bent over swinging a PW and then upright and further away for a 5 iron was the dopiest thing I could imagine. I didn’t buy the distance gapping reason for this. The 1/2” increments between clubs is negligible…… but a 3” gap between your longest and shortest club is significant in how you swing each.

So the engineer in me set out seeking out someone that didn’t do this and made same length clubs. After finding the site and reading all the great material David Lake has I was sold that his approach was the right approach.

Upon ordering my set….. I set my one year goal of breaking 90. Over the last year figuring out how to golf has been my regular hobby. No lessons, fittings, no voodoo. Just finding some tips and direction here and there and figuring out what works. All of David’s instructional material on the site are amongst the most useful I’ve found.

I have shot 89 twice in my last three rounds. I have now set my next year goal to average below 90 consistently.

Learning golf isn’t rocket science. But, it certainly would have been easier in my 20’s than at 50.

I’m convinced that 1 Iron’s approach to single length is the right approach in simplifying acquiring the skill of hitting golf balls, especially for a new player. But I think it would also take much needless complication out of it for experienced players.

Great product and great approach. It boggle my mind what the conventional approach is. It defies common sense and intuitive logic.
