I was talking to a buddy yesterday about drivers. He suggested with some certainty that my driver face will go dead after about two years or so. Huh? He couldn't backup his claim. I haven't researched it either. Does anyone believe this? Is there any proof either way that this happens? Or...is this just a golf myth?
I have got fitted for a Ping Max Driver 2021 , same shaft as I thought was the best shaft for me, but since my 4 year old Ping apeared to ave a slight crack in the face, we decided ai should upgrade. It all worked well in the fitting station and it was flying well , but that was the head we used for fitting. Then I take the same set up new and it flys 20 yards less that the one I had used for the fitting ad it sounds dead. In fact I still it the one with the slighly craked face much better with same shaft ? Very confused .
I had my buddies was me make twenty swings and the new one had no pop to it. Tried it several more times same result. I like the clud and the shaft but somethiung is different ? I think the head of have is faulty. Is this possible ?
