Gripping down
The club that I perhaps struggle most with in my bag is the PW. I hit the ball much more solid with the gap - so much so that I've considering putting the PW in the closet.

Yesterday I tried to grip down on the PW. That made a big difference. I hit the ball at least as solid as I do with the GW and SW. Why?

I have two theories. 1) gripping down is kind of equal to play with flatter lies. 2) Gripping down also puts some weight above the hands, thereby stabilising the FLW.

I dunno' Perhaps I should purchase 1" extra length shafts the next time around just to add some weight above the hands. Or perhaps I should just have the irons flattened even more than I do today.

What do you guys think of flatter lies and more weight on the butt side of the club?
