hi Slater
i played with black coded pings ( black is standard lie) for 20+ years and almost two years ago i bought a set of Orange coded pings from a guy at my club, 2% flat.
i was going to get the lie changed but after trying them i found i played better, talking to my pro he said i was swinging now on a one plane swing and had been a two plane swinger before, and said the clubs made me bend more at the spine and i found i was swinging easer.
going flatter really worked for me.
are you a one or two plane swinger.
cheers
bill

thanks for that bill
1 or 2 plane? i really couldnt tell you! possibly 2

How did you find that out then?

Brian

i was reading some article about lie angles and noted that if your lie angle is too upright then your shots pull to the left, i had always thought that the irons looked a little upright so i went to have them checked.

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

got a slight confession to make guys

maybe im not as good at the 3skills as is thought i was.
my tee shots have been a revelation but it appears that my draw shape with my irons could be down to my clubs being 3 degrees upright when they should be 1 degree flat!

Robin posted this link in another thread. Putting aside the marketing sell it has a nice explanation of how skill 3 works in the swing and the importance of the wrists for generating power.

Re: i used the 3 skills and nailed it!

Yes, I was on the range trying to find a reliable drive for tomorrow's big society day and I reverted to what I think of as my one plane swing (it probably isn't) with the driver and it went well. I'll hit my irons and fairway woods using the draw imagery tomorrow but not my driver just yet.
