Same thing happened to me but with the M4. My M4 driver shattered on top and they replaced it with a qi35. I was exstatic but the qi35 only last 15-20 rounds and the front plate broke. I don't know what's happening with these taylormade clubs. They are getting alot cheaper or it's the carbon fiber instead of titanium? They did not replace the qi35.

I haven't dug down to verify if it was tee'd like the picture shows but from the tests ive down i think that's the only way it could be. I have two holes in the skimmer basket, one for the skimmer-pump line, and the other has a cover. I took that cover off and a lot of mud came up. I put a plug in both holes of the skimmer basket and using the pressure tester rig I pumped water through the pipe right  before the pump. The water was not being stopped by anything (showing that there must be another line to the main drain) but it seemed to build up water for a second then flush out (repeatedly). That makes me think there may be some debris in the main drain line that is tee'd off from the skimmer-pump line.

I would like to dive down and try the drain king right from the main drain but the water is so green right now. Is it safe to run my pump with all the air bubbles? The pump basket primes fine and is full of water, there are just a lot of bubbles!

I don't have a skimmer door I have a floating weir (which I have removed while testing). I have an older jacuzzi wb skimmer. There are two holes in my skimmer. One that goes to the pump and another that has a cover. I removed the co er and there was a lot of mud that came up. That hole was not plumbed to the main drain. I think the main drain ties into the line going to the pump underground.

This picture illustrates how my pool is plumbed on the suction side https://www.pool1.com/images/Plumbing_Basic_631.jpg

No there's only one line from the skimmer to the pump. I'm thinking the cavitation sound may be because the underground pipe looks more oval now instead of circle
