    There are ways to improve Gold without looking for help from equipment ,Learn your irons,,find the feel with back spin,,no spin and top spin,,know yer wedges inside out and remember yer bad shots,,remember why they came up 15 feet short and make mental notes,once you do all this you can relax and have fun and let your instincts take over,put the time in to practice the right way for a few weeks and then your game will improve i assure you that,Good luck i hope you become a top player i really do:),,Good ways to practice are with IRONS only,, no woods,,set game for blue tees and keep doing this until you are sick of it:),Learn your irons and the game will be very easy,,apart from trying to ding the meter,,Good Luck,

    PRIESTESS, my dear, I know your words are inspired by good intentions, but honestly, don't you think that the "practice makes perfect" principle is already very familiar to me? I'm no hack, after all, and a little credit would be nice. 

    Also, I did not imply that better equipment is the only way to improve one's game, but that it could become highly desirable in the event of an upper legend tier for sub-60 players (like you, and yes -- tho to a lesser extent -- me, thank you very much), where distances are greater and conditions generally harder.

    All the best!

    PRIESTESS:

    Cant see any slow meter club being better than Burners:) But ya never know:),Would make the game a tad too easy dont ya think,And it,s not that difficult right now either lol

    I totally agree with this, the top R11 irons really have to be as good as it gets or the scores are going to go from silly to ludicrous.

    Every time one of the top players shoots a 52 or 53 there's a mob of villagers with burning torches and pitch forks storming the the gates of WGT demanding the cheater's head. 

    Imagine what it would be like with even better gear?

    Priestess isn't trying to be patronising or belittle other players abilities.  She's one of the best and most respected players here and her opinions deserve to be taken seriously and not out of context.

    Always a gentleman to defend a lady, that is honorable, no doubt. But defending against what? My innocuous comment after some well-meaning, but condescending words? Totally unnecessary. 

    Note that I have said elsewhere that good clubs could be introduced with a slower meter, playable at the legend level, like the prospective i20's I have described above. They would be out-performed by the best available clubs, with faster meters, and therefore be ignored by the top players, who handle those clubs masterly. In short, they would not change anything at the top, only below, for good players who nevertheless struggle with fast meters. The great would remain great, and the good would be a bit better. What's the harm in that?

    Also note that my idea of introducing yet better equipment than the current best ties in with my idea of introducing a new tier for sub-60 legends, where distances would be greater and conditions generally harder. 

    So please, let us not moralize about nothing, but instead calmly explore the possibilities.
