  we need wedge improvements to give us some serious spin like the pro's. THIS IS #1 PRIORITY. Longer club distances are not needed, shorter putts from backspin wil improve the putting and bring scores down. As we have heard before,  practice,practice, and more practice is the only way too improve your game newbies.

  Agreed %100.  If we dont get the distance... then we need the spin.  Also...  I noticed that even in the wet conditions at the open this year the drives from the pros are WAY farther than where we are able to hit.  So if we have to hit it from the "tips" we should get more distance... or moves us up a tee box.  And as far as "PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE"...  spin requires little to no practice at all.... just move the little blue dot down and hit it (near) perfect.

  lol i meant practice your whole game. Distance comes with timing and accuracy  which dosn"t happen overnight.
