My Quest to Become a Golf Pro

Certified Preowned Callaway Golf Clubs

In My Bag

This is a summary of all the equipment I’m currently using.

  • Callaway X-16 Pro irons, 2-iron,3-iron, 5-9-irons. Stiff flex. Length +1/2″, grips +1/16″
  • Callaway Big Bertha Steelhead III 3+ fairway wood, steel shaft
  • Callaway FT-i Tour driver, stiff shaft (Fujikura Speeder 686)
  • Cleveland Classic Chrome 588 wedges: 49º, 56º, 60º, and 64º
  • Callaway Tour-i ball
  • SkyCaddie SG4

And last, but not least, and not technically in my bag, is my golf pro. Anyone, and I mean, anyone who wants to improve their golf game should take a lesson or two. Sometimes it takes a few tries to find a pro that fits well. And sometimes it takes several lessons to see real results. But I promise you, the payoffs will be worth it.

My pro is Craig Dear from the South Jersey Golf Center. Craig is a great guy and has been doing his thing for a long time. His teaching style is more feel oriented as opposed to getting the student wrapped up in precise planes and angles and the like. He uses video feedback to demonstrate problems, and keeps his instruction simple and easy to follow. At the same time, he can certainly get technical if that’s your style.

    I admire what you are doing. The game is demanding and rewarding. I’m in a similar mindset about improving my game from the standpoint of really understanding what I’m doing. I’m also big on feel. There are so many technical aspects to the swing we become saturated with swing thoughts. Combining goals and documenting my practice has really helped me. I’ve put together a site for documentation. Kind of like being “accountable” as you say. It’s a good idea. Good luck to you! You’re on a sound path.
