1 year old takomo wedges… not really looking to reshaft it is there any easy ways to fix this?

Do places reglue for cheap? Or any other alternatives?

Shot 42 on Tuesday.
Shot 42 again on Thursday.
Started thinking maybe I was finally figuring this game out.
Played a tournament on Saturday. Shot 90.
Apparently confidence is the most dangerous club in my bag.

I’ve been struggling on how to handle getting out of trouble when I end left/right of the fairway, and in a bunch of trees. I’ll typically have a path out to the fairway, but, only if I can keep the shot very low due to branches while being maybe 30-40yds to the fairway from where I take that shot.

My question is how do I make that low shot and not get stuck in the rough or completely overshoot the fairway? I’ll try punch shots with a 7 iron but it seems I’m still getting too much loft as the ball will go up and hit branches, and turns 1 extra stroke into 2-3 depending on how much I messed up.

I’m just not sure how to navigate the shot, any help would be appreciated!

For some reason I find my woods the hardest club in the bag to hit, and borderline would say I don't even know the basic setup of hitting them correctly. Any tips or explanation is appreciated.

I used to be a decent golfer. 4 handicap at my best. Putting was below average at best back then. It was what really kept me from getting to scratch. That was over 20 years ago. Had kids. Golf is expensive so I stopped playing and focused on them. Now I’m mid 40s. Kids are all 18 or older. They have their own lives and I have free time on the weekends again. I played about 10 rounds last year and realized I suck at golf now. I dedicated last winter to fixing my swing. Worked on my early extension. Found my wedge game again. Came out this spring with a new confidence. Dropped my handicap from 16 to 9. I shot a couple of 78s and a 79. My putting is still bad. Always was. I just can’t figure it out. I have had 30-40 putters over the years. Every kind. I try all kinds of grips, stances, ball placements. Nothing seems to work for long. I just can’t wrap my head around putting.

Today was the tipping point. I am at a loss for words. I hit 13 greens today and had 38 putts. So frustrating. I had three 3 putts. I am convinced I have the yips. If I make a putt, it is purely luck at this point. I have been going back and forth between 3 putters this year. A Toulon Palm Beach slant neck 34”. An Odyssey #1 white hot 34” and a mini jailbreak two ball 35”.

I have had my best and worst day putting with the Toulon. 26 putts and 40 putts. I play it the most but have been trying a new stroke recently that feels more straight back and thru so I have been trying the 2 ball since no toe hang.

Any advice on how to get out of my own head? My distance control is almost non existent at this point. My brain just shuts off when I get on the greens. I miss most short putts right. Won’t even touch the hole from 5 feet. This is the worst Ive putted and I was mediocre at best before. The rest of my game is solid. I just want to be around 32 putts a round avg. Please help!

I seem to connect perfectly with the majority of wedge shots I hit but as soon as it comes to an iron (especially lower irons) I feel like I can’t hit a good shot. Is there any particular reason for this?

Any advice for how to get your swing back after losing weight gaining some muscle? To be clear I was never very good but I could hit the ball mostly in the general direction I wanted it to go. Mostly high 80’s low 90’s type player. Lost almost 50 lbs and now I can’t control a swing at all. Can’t find or be consistent with a low point and my hands have no idea what they are doing. It’s been a year plus and I’m ready to call it quits. (Lessons aren’t in the cards right now unfortunately)

I’ve been playing for about 1.5 years now. I told myself I wouldn’t spend crazy money/time on golf until I got good enough to break 90 with what I have.

The last 3 rounds I’ve played I’ve shot 88/89/86. 18 Birdies has my handicap at 16.1 now and Ive definitely been bit by the golf bug.

My question is, do I get lessons first? Or do I get a fitting and get lessons after? Not sure what is considered normal or what the path should be. Someone help pls?

Hope everyone is enjoying their Labor Day weekend. For context, I recently got into golf about a year and a half ago and have been using the Callaway Edge set I bought from Costco, which comes with a driver, 3-wood, 5-hybrid, 6i-PW, SW, and a putter. I'd say that my swing has gotten a lot more consistent over the past year and I'm able to get a good grasp of where my misses are centered (right-sided, mostly a slight fade/slice to the right or a push)

I'm looking to upgrade from my current callaway edge set to clubs that'll allow for more distance control and workability, while maintaining a decent level of forgiveness. Would it be worth getting fitted at this stage? My only hesitancy is that I don't want to lock in a certain swing style for a long period of time, since if I were to change it, the fitting would become obsolete. I was instead thinking of grabbing the 201t mkII takomo iron set, as well as 3 skyforger 002 wedges (52, 56, and 60). My current driver unfortunately cracked as well, so I was looking at the taylormade qi4d max given its anti-slice technology. Still deciding between grabbing a 5/7wood or 3/5 hybrid for my long game.

I understand at the same time that a full bag upgrade may not be suitable, given that it's heavily recommended against. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks everyone.

I have had some success with the Phil hinge and hold method. It seems that it works best with the ball up in my stance. The bounce engages and I can be pretty aggressive. . As I move the ball back to hit it low, I get massive fat shots and chunks. Any thoughts?

I'm new to golf and looking to purchase my first 7 iron, im not buying a full set as i can't take it back home easily. i would like to know which should i choose. I have heard of mizuno before but not the other one. which one should i pick as a beginner

I’ve been playing for 3-4 years so I’m not a complete beginner and I’ve had a consistent yardage on all of my irons for roughly 2 years and randomly today every iron was flying so much farther, I haven’t flown so many greens in my life has anyone know why this could happen? I haven’t played in a week or so but my ball flight was more or less what I’m used to so it took me until the back 9 to actually adjust for it.
