I remember having a new student on the practice range at 'The Golf Stop' in Columbia, SC. That's home to our Director of Club Fitting, J. Lynn Griffin. My student was having a horrible time with consistency, hitting hooks and pulls one moment, then slices and pushes the next. He actually had a pretty good setup so I knew it had to be his clubs.
I took him into Lynn's shop, explained the problem and left the two of them to take a phone call from my #1 student (and my son), PGA Tour pro, DJ Trahan.
As I finished the call, I saw my student walk up to the practice tee, set up to his ball nicely, and nail one straight as an arrow. I asked Lynn what he did. Lynn replied that he gave the guy a club he could hit. 'It's insane,' Lynn told me. 'He just bought a new set of irons and said he was hitting it the same as he did with his old set of irons.'
That's when I told Lynn it was about time to do this video.
