My newest pet peeve (amongst many) is not being able to tell how far away from the hole I am on the golf course. Call me old fashioned or a fuddy-duddy, but I have played for 40 years and there have been colored stakes on the side of the fairway to denote 100 yards (red), 150 yards (white) and 200 yards (blue) to the center of the green.

One of the most popular reasons for using a 60 degree wedge is anytime you don't have a lot of green to work with. You can pull off those incredible shots that you see the pros do Sunday’s on TV. However, it takes some practice – something the average golfer might not have the time to do.

For any clubmaker, one important step is good recordkeeping. It is simple, takes little time and it should become a habit for every club you build. Why is this so important? Well, think about what would happen if your customer lost, broke, or had a golf club(s) stolen? Chances are you would have to have that customer come back or ship their clubs to you to be able to duplicate. However, if you have kept good notes, then you become the hero and can have their club ready and not have to have them inconvenienced.

Golfers are always looking to make the most of the 14 allowable golf clubs you can carry in the golf bag. Strong golfers who are not overcome with distance problems but do occasionally need one club that allows them to hit a long way to reach par 5’s in two or play that controlled shot off the tee.

At the beginning of the golf season or if you recently purchased new irons and have been able to go out to the range and get a few rounds under your belt, it might be wise to have your iron distance gaps checked. Why? By gapping your entire set of clubs or at least your irons and wedges correctly, it can help you score better by not having two clubs with overlapping distances or in other cases creating large gaps between two adjacent clubs in your set.
What is distance gapping?
It is the process of evaluating your clubs and making sure you are spreading out the distance gaps better between consecutive clubs.

Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the workshop
Not a single tool would sit idle, not even a mop.
The headcovers were placed in a gift box with care,
In hopes that Uncle Nicholas’s new clubs would soon be there.While his children were nestled all snug in their beds,
Dave rummaged for a ferrule for Uncle Nick’s heads.
With a cup of coffee and wearing his favorite golf cap,
He took a sip and carefully removed each head’s bubble wrap.
