Ah, don't worry about it. I was at the driving range yesterday, and the fool next to me, broke the shaft of his driver, by hitting the ground. He then looked at me, and tried telling me how cheap his driver was for breaking.

You're not getting blisters because you're hitting the ground, you're getting blisters because you're gripping the shaft too tightly.
I find a quick swing fix is to relax my hands almost to the point where it feels like the club is going to fly out of my hands. You're forced to swing slower, and have more time to concentrate on the proper mechanics. 'Course, it's pretty damned embarassing when they have to stop the range so you can go get your 9 iron from the 50 yard sign. |

Penny, I've seen you throw . . . you can barely throw a football 20 yards let alone a golf club 50!

It's one thing to suck at golf - it's another to WANT to be good at it. Golf is a big waste of time, not to mention an elitist waste of real estate.

I agree, I dont see how walking around a big field hitting balls with your clubs counts as relaxation. That land could have been used for better purposes, and who knows how many deaths there are that are related to golf. |

BASTARDS, I love golf. It helps me relax. . . but then again thats probably 'cause I've been playing since I was like 6 or so. So I probably got all of the aggression out when I was young. . . BUT GOD DAMN I LOVE THIS GAME AND IT IS NO WASTE OF LAND. *ahem* see no stress?
