Being better than someone doesn't mean the driver is better


And I like my chances against anyone but I don't come here flinging my dick around talking shite to people who you don't know how good they are and they don't know how good you are

I promise you I hit that driver 12 yards farther. It's just a fact it's not like I saw the commercial and said oh my god me too!! And guess what people are hitting the ball a shite ton farther why do you think so many tournament courses get lengthened??

I just bought a 5 degree driver from geek golf called the No Brainer. I would recommend it. Very good driver . It is a launcher and don't worry, they sell different lofts so you don't have to buy a 5 degree

If you have a custom fit R9 and a custom fit R11, the difference will be minimal. The difference is in the custom ability IMO. Once the R11s was fitted for me I hit 12 drives straight as an arrow and as long as anything I've ever swung. According to Trackman I picked up 28.2 yards over my Callaway Diablo Octane.

I don't understand how you don't think new clubs could gain you more yardage. But whatever.

Back to the original question if you want buy the club that in a couple months will be 3 generations outdated or spend alittle extra cash to get something newer and better that you can play longer. Doesn't really matter to me

20+ handicap here. Looking to upgrade from an ancient driver.

What do you guys think about a Diablo Edge Driver? I'm at the point where forgiveness is way more important than yardage. Do Callaway drivers stack up against Taylormade? I'm not at a place where I'm willing to spend more than say $125 on a driver.

I personally am not a fan callaway.

When I had problems with accuracy I went to a square head (Nike) and it was the best thing for me at the time. I didn't hit it that far but it went straight.

Everyone is different tho. Go buy a nicer used driver from a store. They will let u hit them normally to try

Lefty - hence the lack of getting to "test" drivers.
