I just wanted to take the time say Thanks for my new set of Mizuno MP-62 irons that I won on the Golf Better@Edwin Watts Golf podcast drawing. I would also like to thank Kenny for telling me to get fitted. Some of the best free advice I have received. I don’t know if it’s the new clubs or if they are made for me, but they feel great. The only bad thing about the set is they came 3 thru PW. Well, the next best thing to do was to purchase 2 Eidolon wedges. I must say the wedges are great. Everyone sits there and listens to your podcast and wonders if they are going to work. They do. I guess you can say that I now have a golf smarter set of clubs. Now I just need to learn how to golf smarter! I guess that’s what the podcast’s are for, me to figure out how to golf smarter. Keep up the good work, and if you could pass the word along to Kenny and the guys over at Eidolon the same. Can’t wait for the next podcast.
Happy Holidays,
Rob Hensel

Thanks to our loyal and passionate following, Golf Better @ Edwin Watts Golf has cultivated a global audience. As a result, we have a fresh crop of questions for Kenny Nicholson, Technical Specialist of Edwin Watts Golf, to answer on this episode.
Tim Frazier of Florida writes in and asks “I have been hearing about golf shaft PUREing and the advantages that it will bring to all levels of golfers. Does this really help the control on & off center hits?”
Name: Alex Kinkade of Ohio asks “My driver has a dent on the crown, located on the toe. Would this dent change the ball flight like the weights on a Taylomade driver?”
Name: Mike Lyons from Maryland writes to Kenny saying, “A few months ago on one of the podcasts, you mentioned a product that was great for cleaning practice mat residue from irons. Can you tell me what that was? I thought it contained the word ’spirits,’ but I’m not sure.”
Brian Fox of Maryland asks “I know that temperature and humidity have an affect on distance, but how much? Can it be quantified with a simple formula? For example, does a 10 degree temperature decrease cause a 2 percent distance decrease? Is there a formula or rule of thumb with respect to how wind changes distance? What is that threshold? How much does low trajectory help battle the wind?”

When you watch the pros on tour, you may notice that there are as many putting grips as there are players. Is there a “best” grip? Geoff Mangum answers a question from a listener about the physiology of putting and what your arms, shoulders, head and entire body should be doing when you putt, not just your hands.
