Yes, the perimeter weighted, cavity back, oversized golf clubs.  Personally I hate them, I actually believe they are a detriment to ones game, and pretty much a marketing plan to generate fantastic income for the golf industry.  Now I don't feel that way about the woods these companies are producing (well at least the part of being detrimental), but the irons I do.  I'll explain that later.  "But you have a low handicap and don't need the help that these clubs can give you,"  is a comment I hear regularly. Trust me I can use all the help I can get.  But after a couple of years of trying this club and that, I found that the woods (metal) could give me some help I could use, but the detriments of the irons far, far, outweighed any advantage they have.  I feel that if a fellow has a really poor game, it doesn't matter at all which clubs he uses, the ball is not going where he wants it to anyway.  He believes that a more forgiving club can help him.  Well the help he needs is in his game.  And as one improves, well, the more the disadvantages of these new style "game improvement" clubs come into play.

So what do I find so Horrible about these clubs.  Oh let me count the ways, and I'm sure by now you know I will.
