Well, put a new driver in the bag and quite happy with it after 2 rounds.
Have been debating on a new one for a year or so and couldn’t bring myself to drop $800+ on a club I already hit pretty well and hit maybe 6-10 times a round depending on the course.
Decided to get fitted at Modern Golf to replace my current Taylor Made M1.
Hit the following with various shaft combinations:
- Ping G430 max 10k
- Cobra Darkspeed LS
- TaylorMade Qi10 LS
- Titleist GT3
Ended up buying the COBRA darkspeed LS 9° with Lina XS shaft and golf pride MCC4 grip.
Averaged 19 yards more than I hit the M1 and was consistently better dispersion than all the brand/head/shaft combos I tried. The GT3 I averaged 1 yard more then the Cobra, but worse dispersion and the shaft combo for the Cobra vs. Titleist ended up being $350 less before taxes.
After 2 rounds on the course very happy with the purchase. My ‘natural’ fade with the driver is now dead straight or even a slight draw.
