I was in a similar situation and went with the AVX, which has resulted in fewer wayward drives for me. Not sure if it was just the ball or working on swing, but worth a try.

This.

PGF is an Australian company (Precision Golf Forging) dating back to 1932. They once made high quality clubs and were played by many pros, but in more recent times have been sold as entry-level clubs.

They are quite common in Sydney and are surprisingly big (and noisy) up close. It's easy to take things for granted, but they are quite extraordinary parrots. Here's a friendly kookaburra from a couple of months ago:

Sulphur-crested cockatoos making themselves at home in the neighbour's tree.

Agreed. If you can pick up the tee, surely you can throw it in the bin. At the Australian Open, I have seen the volunteer marshals collect tees, particularly on the par 3s, and create a pile on the edge of the tee box for other players to use whilst also clearing the tee box. On a related...

Ummm - I am not hating on him at all. I think he has brought some good ideas to testing golf equipment and, as you point out, he has achieved amazing results. However, it is my understanding that he is frequently misrepresented as being a scientist when he is not. I was just attempting to...

From my reading of matters, he did not finish his studies at SMU and did not complete his senior year, following NCAA sanctions against SMU. So, he was a physics major, which is incorrectly reported as having a physics degree. I do not believe he has the credentials to be called a scientist.

I have broken fingers many times from cricket. The worst one took 6 months to regain full flexibility. It was very a stiff for about 3 months and then improved markedly. Follow the physio/OT’s advice and hopefully it will return to full range of movement sooner rather than later.
