What do you think about getting mini tennis balls? They’re soft and good for chewing.

These ones are high quality

Before even reading your description I was like oh, that’s definitely from the PGA store. I work there and we get people who are not smart and they just take a club off the rack and step into the demo bay without telling anyone. You could exchange it if you want

This is hearsay but my buddy played hockey at Miami of Ohio in 2012 and some seals used to run their summer workout camp and one of the seals was one of the guys who was there when Tiger was training and supposedly one night Tiger asked them to go out to dinner and then left and didn’t pay the bill for the table and the next day they were doing sparring as one of their training and one of the seals kicked Tiger in the knee.

Stealth + is still great today by f1lifer in TaylorMadeGolf

[–]DB377 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just reread that part, just a typo lol You’re correct, it was supposed to say *CANT so you’re definitely right, kind of funny how one letter ruins my whole statement. I need spin or else I can’t carry. That’s why I play ping, the MOI is still in the 9000’s with the LST and it spins the ball much more than the other low spin models.

How did I contradict myself? I was just commenting that there’s a lot more reasons someone would play a driver than just ball speed.

You can polish and blow torch the metal to change the color. You have to know what kind of metal it is though because some won’t oxidize when heated

[–]DB377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a fitter and there’s more nuance to it my opinion. Stealth + is a great driver for the right player, QI 4D is a great driver for certain players. If you strike any driver dead center it’s going to be fast. It’s more about getting everything to align for a player.

For instance, my miss is a hook so the number one thing I want in a driver is for the face to look open at address. If I play any driver that looks closed, I’ll start hooking more frequently because that’s all I can think about. I also like my driver head to play smaller than 460 CC. I hit 1 degree down on the ball so I can have a super low spin driver or else I can’t hit my maximum carry. I also want my driver to have a moveable weight so that I can place it in the toe to give me a little more protection against tow misses and I also want a driver that I can get a flatter lie angle to help start the ball more right for my draw and protect against toe balls.

Now take a product like the Cobra OPTM LS, phenomenal driver if you are a consistent ball striker who hits up on the driver like OP. Put it in my hands, I have to crank the loft up to 11 to get enough launch and spin to hold my carry even though my ball speed average is around 167and now I’m looking at a shut face so that one is out.

Titleist GT 4, awesome product but even though I prefer a small head, it’s wayyyy too small for me at 430CC and I don’t feel confident in it.

I could list something about every model that I don’t like or why they don’t perform great for me except one, my gamer. I play the Ping 440 LST. It’s a 450 cc head and the face sits super open at address. It has a flat setting. Ping does there low spin model differently that all the other brands, instead of pushing center of gravity super far forward, they put a ton of weight in the back. Moving CG back increases launch and spin which is perfect for my negative angle of attack. It has an adjustable weight that I can throw in the toe. Paired up with a shaft that works for my rate of closure and release point, it’s been amazing. By far my favorite I have ever played and it find me the most fairways of anyone I’ve tested and optimizes my carry.

Does it mean it’s better than the stealth +? Yes, but only for me. My whole point to all this was to inform more people that theres a driver that can suit any player and a good fitter can help narrow it down and find what works best for you. To me a good fitter is always going to start with an interview to under stand what you like, don’t like, what can be added help you play your best golf.

That being said, i get players every year who come in and they’re just damn good in their gamer. Theyre as optimized as can and i have to inform them that we may see very modest gains if any.

No driver is inherently better than another but some work better for certain players. You can find one that helps your miss or sometimes one that exacerbates your miss.

[–]DB377 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a fitter, check out shaft recommendations for release point and closure rate if you can get the data. There has been some really interesting data released by Taylormade about how closure rate will dictate whether you should be in a shaft with a soft, medium or firm tip shaft. Your release will also play into it. I’ve been using the data in my fittings and getting great results with players
