@HankDHaney RT @jayztbay: How often do you recommend re-gripping the putter? I love the feel, but I play a lot in the summer Every couple years
@HankDHaney RT @flagrant1978: what putter do you use Hank? Nike Method
@HankDHaney RT @jrhjr: how would a top club pro (1 thats qualified 4 the pga champ) fare on the lpga? I think he would totally dominate
@HankDHaney RT @JasonTigner:would you recommend club fitting for a 16 handicap? Also would it improve his game? Absolutely
@HankDHaney RT @JJgolfpro: What is your view on center shafted putters? Real good if u try to put straight back and through without a lot of rotation
@HankDHaney RT @imyourlawyer:used to slice all shots then bought new clubs. Now shots go left, same swing The lie angle is more upright on the new ones

Oliver Wilson
@Oliver_Wilson Funny watching airport security when my Flightscope gets screened. Serious faces come on & mild panic sets in when I say it's a radar!
@Oliver_Wilson Sorry..Flightscope is what we use to track the flight of a golf ball. It tells you all kinds of data, spin & distance etc.
@Oliver_Wilson “@Mikezzz33: @Oliver_Wilson Will pro tour allow rangefinders during tourneys someday soon??? @” I hope not!
Bruno Buccolo

Hank Haney, PGA
@HankDHaney RT @tufty1978: is the R11 going to make a big difference to 5 handicap player? Probably will it is s great club
@HankDHaney RT @RONDALCanada: @HankDHaney are adjustable drivers really THAT good? Yes they are
@HankDHaney RT is "getting fitted" for a shaft as crucial for a mid-high hdcp? Or r ya pretty safe with a stock? If u want to maximize distance.
@HankDHaney RT @newsandreports: @HankDHaney which irons do you carry? Nike cavity back
@HankDHaney RT @mabammsia: Adams all-hybrid set? Overkill? For 10hcp who doesn't shape shots much. First iron should be 5 iron for a 10 handicap
@HankDHaney RT @crob205: have a love affair with the original r 90 sand wedge they're getting hard to find. Plenty of wedges just as good, get over it
@HankDHaney RT @ndsailor43: @HankDHaney Hank on driver glove or no glove. Glove for sure
@HankDHaney RT @Weston33: @HankDHaney I think hybrids are a easy way out! Then bring out the 1 iron and really torture yourself
@HankDHaney New clubs-putters whenever, irons every 4 years, drivers every 2 years, wedges every 1-2 years, grips every year
@HankDHaney RT @selectaPrime: @HankDHaney hybrid or rescue? Same thing
MARCH 17
Hank Haney, PGA
@HankDHaney Anyone that doesn't have at least 2 hybrids in their bag must think the game of golf is too easy
@HankDHaney For years Tiger used a golf ball that spun more for his short game, that ball was 10 yards shorter than the balls everyone else was playing
