There's always the exception of course..

I went down the driving range with three irons and a driver to hit a 100 balls this morning and I hit nearly all of them quite straight.
When I was having problems with my hip, I couldn't get enough "turn" so I was having to compensate by slightly closing the face of my driver.
So I was more than pleased, not having hit a ball since the beginning of July.
As I can now manage to get a sock on the leg in question by myself (it has been impossible up to now to bend it much due to the swelling of my knee as a result of the operation and I wasn't going to ask for help in the locker room), I'm going to start playing again on Monday, (weather permitting).
Not bad as it won't yet be nine weeks since the operation.
