@HankDHaney Yes and an adjustable one RT @drunkenkyle: nasty slice. I'm 6'7'' longer driver????
@HankDHaney Let the pro advise u RT @TKGator7: @HankDHaney Clubs 11 yr old knockoffs but starting first real lessons so should I wait to get new set?
@HankDHaney The shafts r steel they look graphite RT @ArabKnight72:How come only Stricker, that I know of, is playing with graphites on his irons?
@HankDHaney Yes RT @PHParton: driver is my worst club, slice it. every club is stiff shaft but my driver (regular), could this be part of the problem?

@HankDHaney Depends on your swing RT @Alan_Tolman: @HankDHaney my clubs that I use are 10yrs old ping isi. How much am I losing not playing newer clubs
@HankDHaney Both great RT @MGCary12:I have both the R11 and Superfast 3Woods...which is better for a single digit handicap? personal preference?
@HankDHaney Get fitted and demo RT @dtlang: @HankDHaney - looking to buy some new irons - your thoughts on how to select best set?
@HankDHaney I like that RT @toddy080: @HankDHaney , at the moment I use 50, 56 & 60, I never use my 60. I want new wedges, could 52& 58 work? Thnx.

Ping Golf
@PingTour The Anser Wedge was designed to accompany our current line of Anser Forged irons, which are made of soft 8620 steel.
@PingTour This Anser wedge features a reinforced cavity design and stabilizing bar. bit.ly/qNySB5
@PingTour The versatile sole design allows for the golfer to play a variety of shots from almost any lie bit.ly/oSgpYL
@PingTour Carried over from the Anser Forged Iron you’ll find a tungsten toe weight, which helps optimize the MOI. bit.ly/mWuf61
@PingTour The longer hosel design counterbalances the toe weight, pulls the CG forward and helps provide a more penetrating trajectory.
@PingTour The Anser wedge will be offered stock with the DG Spinner shaft and in 50°, 52°, 54°, 56°, 58° and 60°.
@PingTour A new feature to our G20 iron is the multi-material badge found in the back cavity of the iron. bit.ly/r4Frqx
@PingTour Our G20 iron can benefit any type of golfer regardless of their handicap. bit.ly/ortXWn
@PingTour Our multi-material badge helps provide a solid feel and sound while enhancing distance control.
@PingTour Our G20 irons have been custom engineered to provide you with very consistent distance gapping throughout the entire set.
@PingTour When designing the G20 driver we decided to use a new titanium (Ti 8-1-1), which has a higher strength to weight ratio.
@PingTour The G20 driver will feature a slightly larger head profile and a higher MOI for increased forgiveness. bit.ly/nVIkOS
@PingTour An aerodynamic head shape is important. But it’s only one part of our balanced approach when we designed the G20 Driver
@PingTour Although some drivers are trending towards the premise that lighter is better, you won’t find this trend continuing with G20.
@PingTour Through research we’ve solidified a different design philosophy that can yield higher ball speeds & a tighter dispersion pattern.

@RealRickyBarnes Just got to the Greenbrier!! Awesome Spot. But Clubs got stolen out of the Trunk at my outing in Chicago yesterday. New Sticks this week!
