Iron Byron

What a great human being. He will be truely missed.

The Nelson Classic is where my roots are. I grew up a few blocks from where it is now played. TPC Las Colinas was not my home course though.

I really want to know who plays with what clubs and why. I'm a naturalist. I love the sound of persimmon off a deep faced Hogan driver, and the fluid feel from a 1973 staff iron.

I have hit newer clubs, and IMHO, a line has to be drawn. But where? It isn't the ball.

Nicklaus says it is a combination of club and ball. He may be right, newer clubs are longer inch wise and are turned down degree wise compared to what I refer to as standard. I haven't had but a +/- 2 yard change in distance on my 7 iron for years. I digress, I'm stuck in the stone age sporting S300 dynamic gold at a D2 with what I mentioned above.

This newer stuff is cheating if you ask me.
