That spin is awesome.

Have you put it to work on the course?
Thanks man. I usually like to hit a power fade off the tee to take one side of the course out of play.

eta: Not yet

Bc they don't exist. Yes I'm a TMade homer but if somehow if the club is cracked or whatever, always replaced. Customer service??

Probably, Taylor Made had a club fitting so their pro examined it and sent the request to replace it

With that spin and launch angle in the pic, 289 seems about right.

Keep in the mind Rors, Scottie and most other tour pros are using an ‘off the market’ driver head. Pay attention to their degree loft on their head. There’s a small dot to the top right corner of it.

They are using the ‘core’ Qi10 model for the most part but it’s been modified and not available.

I can’t think of the exact term, but “face shaving” where they thin out the face to do something.

I’ve heard they crack more IF you pursue this so I’m not in at $400-1000 per club head

I have seen a couple fitting YouTube's that the customer had a tour issue loft, like 8deg. They said it was a tour van only issue. Probably a direct purchase deal with the manufacturer.

The thing I noticed is you must have a hell of a fade with a near 8 deg out to in path and only 3 yards off line at the end

Got it in today, getting my back looked at Thursday (bulging disc L4-L5) but I had to go hit it.

Averaged 228 carry with 143 ball speed. I was swinging easier and hitting higher than the 138 ball speed i averaged with the Stealth 2. Dispersion was TIGHT. Heel shot, toe shot went the same way.

Just need to get this back fixed so I can get it on the course.

Have you considered Radio Frequency Ablation Therapy ? It works wonders for me and my building disc that's pressing on the nerve.

It lasts about 15 months for me. Insurance pays for it.

Thats the 2nd option, they’re doing an epidural Friday.

Good luck with the steroid shots Friday.

They didn't work for me, but the RFA does.

Could always use some work. Chip shots are hit or miss. With Putting, I normally just try to two putt greens unless im within striking distance of 20 feet or so.

Real issue i have at the moment is distance control with my new irons. Still learning them. Plus there is a huge gap from 9 to PW that really pisses me off. PW used to be a solid 145 carry, yet with these irons, Im only getting 135ish carry. 9 iron is 150 to 155 carry so thats a huge gap in my game.

I had it bent 2 degrees stronger and its all over the place. The offset looks retarded at address and really messes with my aiming

2 seems like a bit much. When I was going through my fitting he wouldn’t go past 1 degree either way.

I’ll be looking into this. Who/which type of doctor handles this?
