I'm no expert, but i'll attempt this.
Drivers in general are the longest type of club in a caddy. The shaft (oo'er Missus!) of the club is a good bit longer, to cater for faster swinging, like any wood (*splutter*) club. Wooden clubs, especially drivers tend to have massive heads (ah here now!), to knock the balls (alright, alright, that's enough!) a further distance.
But there's strictly no sex involved.
Although i wouldn't mind a couple of lessons from LPGA golfer, Natalie Gulbis, who by coincidence, I share a birthday with.
Rory McIlroy uses a custom driver, and the fact that he's only 5'9 doesn't help his cause.0 -

Anyone else working today? Here til lunchtime at least, then I have the pleasure of doing garden work for the remainder of the day. Good friday eh? And the missus insists that no meat be eaten. Thats no good. At least I have a good stash of beer at home to make it all good at about 8pm this evening 0

This one is gonna turn into a thorny issue for some, but i'm gonna shoot from the hip here.
Regarding religion, i found my faith just over a year ago. I don't shove it down anyone's throats or anything because i feel each to their own.
Despite all of this, the bible has so many contradictory statements in it that it's hard even for me to swallow. Jesus may have died for our sins, alright, i can honestly believe that part.
But drinking alcohol wasn't a sin, not the last time I checked. So no, i don't have a problem drinking on Good Friday, especially as i'm off to a 60th later tonight where alcohol will be served up and consumed.
(and no smartasses, it's not MY 60th either) 0 -

Fair play SR.
Kinda the same thing happened myself, was raised by a religious mother and strayed away and then later on found it again and took it as my own.
But your right in the sense of what you say.
From studying bits of theology its just a present day reaction to something that over the last 2000 years has become somewhat lost.
Like the whole drinking thing, in those days if someone had a party, say a wedding, a birth or whatever, the determination about how long the party would last was by the amount of wine that was there.
Long story short, the party kept going as long as there was the wine was still flowing.
But in the last while society took it on and took it as something else.
Now its looked down on to be drinking where it regards the catholic church (of not being catholic i am only basing on this on what ive heard).
They have put their mark on this day as being a no drink holiday.
Which is completely contradictory when you think that if this had have been jesus time drinking would have been allowed go on because essentially it would have been his wake.
But anyway...
Just my 2c. 0 -
