Whatever works best for you. I play golf with someone who purchased a driver at the golf show. It was in a barrel with a bunch of others. They were all new but no name brand. That was 17 years ago. He hits it straight around 270. He paid 50 bucks for it and refused to buy a new one. He has a 1500 set of irons, not including his wedges and putter, so it definitely is not because he doesn't have the money. Like he says, if it isn't broken, why try to fix it?

The Dynapower driver constantly gets amazing reviews yet people often seem reluctant to put it in the bag, favouring the more "sexy" big 3 of TM, Cal and Ping. People forget the scorecard doesnt care what brand you're hitting. Great video alex, i really like this channel

I purchased the Ping Max 10k and absolutely HATED it! I averaged 250 total with my old Ping 400 Max, but only got 225 with the new Max 10k. After a few rounds, I took it back. I had the Dark Speed in mind next. But while I was waiting for a shaft change, I picked up the Wilson Carbon and instantly fell in love with it. The carry was 250, 270-275 total. Needless to say, I walked out with the Wilson.

@susancrowther9998 5 ай бұрын

I agree the ping has a very “tinny” sound and from my experience all their clubs are made with the idea of height and getting the ball airborne. However the Wilson, from my perspective sounded more solid and if you are after a driver with workability ie can draw or fade this sounds to have the answers. You certainly looked to have much more control of the ball with the Wilson than with the ping although the latter having more height would possibly be fairway finder on any tight hole. Although having just seen your golf swing I am sure you hit most fairways anyway. Great review by the way!

Tried the Wilson yesterday for the first time. Immediately felt heavier than my normal driver and sits toed in. Like you I found the flight to be perfect. I think Wilson missed the boat on this driver by pricing it slightly lower than TM, Callaway etc. if they did Cobra F9 pricing I recon this would fly off the shelf. I’m holding back as I hear there could be a new one round the corner. 🤞🏻 Great review as always

Frankly, I've had it with the latest "super drivers". I've got 9 of them in the basement, accumulated over the years. I bought the Cobra F6 driver when it came out with good reviews. To date it's my favorite. When the F9 "best driver in the world" came out I bought it, thiinking a significant step up from my F6...NOT! With my F6, it seems I can hit it just about any place on the face and not lose anything. Not so with the F9, which I played for most of a season. Oh well, I guess it depends if you want to spend hundreds for an extra 3-5 yards, not even a club length for your second shot.

Another story about driver sound. In my collection I have an old Cleveland all titanium Launcher driver. I remember going to the range to warm up for a corporate outing. After hitting a few balls with this driver, those next to me asked if I ever use ear protection when teeing off. Ear-piercing loud!

Besides it not being a proper Ventus Blue shaft, whatever type of launch monitor you're using is rubbish also. Your first swing was 1.49 smash Factor and it was a mile away from the center of the Club face! Impossible.. also there were times when you had the exact same spin rate and smash factor and Club head speed and it was 12 yards different in yardage! On the other side there were times when you were 5 mph slower with a worst smash factor in the ball went farther than the previous drive... also I've seen you at a supposed 1 1 4 Mi per hour Club head speed and today starting at 1:02 and going to 108 tells me that thing is a piece of junk...
