In order to progress as a golfer, it is necessary to monitor your progress from day to day, month to month and year to year and see what needs to be changed.
The big stars of the golf scene, like Rory McIlroy, constantly make modifications in the game, and change equipment, with the aim of progress and success.
The 35-year-old Northern Irishman did the same again.
Namely, Rory was spotted at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic with a golf club that looks like it was designed for younger golfers. Fans questioned why Rory does such things, and the Northern Irishman shared his reasons.
The world number 3 found that the shorter club is heavier, which gives him a better feel for the club head.
“The purpose of the shorter club… It’s heavier so I can feel the head a little bit better and I can feel where I want the club to be during the swing.
It’s also got a pre-set grip on it, which helps sometimes because my left hand grip gets a little strong. I’ve used it since October when I was trying to make a little bit of a change in my backswing.
It’s a little club I can carry with me everywhere. I bring it back to the hotel room with me and swing it in the house just any time I wanna get a feel with it. It sorta comes with me everywhere.”- Rory McIlroy said, as quoted by Golf Monthly.
Rory McIlroy and ambitions in 2025
Rory McIlroy wants this season to be a much better one for him, although he may be happy with his performances in 2024.
Talking about his ambitions is unnecessary. It is clear to the fans what Rory’s primary goal is from season to season, and it becomes stressful and tiring to repeat the same thing.
McIlroy seems to have a completely new mindset, and such a change could be very beneficial for the experienced golfer. We hope for his great performances.
