Definitely. The right fit. Hitting that optimized mix of control and distance.
One thing I noticed in my admittedly brief testing. Was that none of the new drivers seemed to be lacking in speed. I didn't go through a full fledged fitting or gather numbers across all of them. But, out of...
I have been guilty of generalizing a lot of these releases through the years. Not really giving spin the respect it deserves. It has taken a year where I wasn't able to play much and some god awful tee shots to really force myself to look at it from a different perspective.
I will be...
So I’ve gone in and hit a few of the new drivers. I’ll preface this by saying that my path and AoA have gone awry this off season lol. I’ve been getting more and more from the inside the past few years. So my miss is typically a block or a low spin hook.
To remedy the hook I’ve been going with...
Thanks for the in hand pics! So so clean. Very much in the Titleist realm of sleek. I have been extremely interested in the Max model for this and the coming G430 10K. I was hoping to see a neutral face and lie. A forgiving neutral Max driver. I wouldn't mind point and shoot. But, when my...
To some extent sure. But, I lived in that low spin realm for a bit with a set a few years ago. Stronger lofts and a lower spin design. It was very difficult to maintain consistency when my lies changed. Living low on the spin spectrum had me feeling like I was on a razors edge between a...
Spin definitely seems on the low side. But, that's based on my preferences for my game. As long as you don't lose any front/back dispersion and the numbers don't jump all over the place, you do you haha. If I were testing a ball and saw that low of spin, I would probably discount it pretty...
If it worked it worked! No need to replace what isn't broken. In Chicago, you should have ample options to try a bunch of models. I would highly recommend taking your time and find something that works best for you. The 3w is such a personal club for most it seems. It took me forever to...
The Diablo is old enough that I think you would really have to go in and take a look at its potential replacement. There are a few tall face options. Since 2010, the 3 wood has really become hotter and hotter. So, be prepared to pick up some distance with the replacement! I don't know if you...
Ok. The CB is a ball speed monster. It was not what I was expecting when I grabbed the demo and just swung a bit cold off the street. Spin maybe a little low. But playing that draw for the most part so not surprising.
I appreciate more spin personally. I had gen3 0311T last year for a bit. They would get me in the 6600-7k range for a 7 iron. Which for me is prime. Where most recently, the Apex MB had me at sub 6k. Still very playable. But I like more. Just seems the trend is lower and lower spin. Especially...
Went to the shop today hoping to see the new line. They only had the MB 7i. No pro or cb. No stock to check out. Hit the MB 7i a few times. It’s nice. Looks great behind the ball. A little more firm than I was expecting. But it is a nice looking club.
This is exactly what seems to stave off back issues for me. I have a degenerating disc and arthritis in my lower back. If I get lazy and stop strength training, it's only a matter of time before my back goes out. If I am consistent in my training and incorporate squats and deadlifts in my...
How about the distance between the MB and the CB? Is the CB significantly longer? I am very very interested in a combo set. But, don't want to see any crazy gapping issues. Also, I would probably prefer the split to be at the 8i instead of the 7. But, not opposed. Probably should be eying a...
I rarely rarely ever feel confident with a 3w off the deck. For one, I am awful at getting it in the air. Second, most of the time there is trouble surrounding the green and I don't feel comfortable taking the risk.
The 7w is essentially a super easy to hit 250 yard club for me. If I am...
Someone pointed it out to me way back when the first leaks hit. But now I cannot look at the bottom of this driver without seeing a lobster.
A good write up @Hawk with seemingly little info. Ping doing Ping things I suppose. They definitely march to the beat of their own drum.
So, I did a thing. I couldn't resist anymore. The 5w idea sounded so sound. But at the end of the day, my 3w is a tee club. I can make it a higher spinning fairway finder on dog legs. Or, a low spin stinger machine on windy days. I will leave the off the turf work to the 7w I ordered this...
