    I stopped going to X to see their posts. They post the same thing on instagram. A lot easier to find posts like this on there

    Thanks! Weird. I see that. But if I go to their X, it’s not there and the most recent post is January 8.

    Well go figure, another nice day and stuck at work until the sun goes down. I'm feeling mother nature just doesn't want to play nice right now and allow me a nice day to golf on the weekend. Meh, could always be worse.

    I've got to say, I am flabbergasted by the amount of comments on the post as I really was only thinking about the forgiveness of the drivers that are coming out that I've watched reviews on. For @GolfSpy_APH to make the survey and go above and beyond for this post is really awesome. This community is really great to be a part of and have those discussions and debates about anything golf wise or even the not golf related talks. I look forward to more debates and friendly banter and seeing others view points.

    I need to remind myself when swinging with my driver is staying connected. Have a habit when I get way to overconfident that I go all out cause “What’s the worst that can happen?” It’s called ball OB.

    If you are in Florida, specifically the Jacksonville area, volunteer for the Players Championship. Once you are done with the event you get to play the Stadium course for the price of the cart fee, which when I did it was 35 dollars. Amazing course to play once you get past the awe of standing on the first tee and getting the jitters out. Can honestly say my next bucket list course is probably Bethpage Black now.

    It’s probably the most unknown territory though. It’s like the Takomo Driver when I came out, unknown of what it might be like or if it could even compete with the big names.

    I was using the vice tour ball but switched to the vice pro. I have some of the Wilson triad balls which I believe were in the top 3 under 40 bucks. Going to give those a go when it starts warming up this year. 
     
    to your point about low lofted clubs, I have a 9 degree driver head. I’ve also lofted my 5 and 7 woods down as well to their lowest loft. But I can tell you I need more loft in my irons now cause roasting a 7 iron 198 and hitting it flush, pretty sure I need to not be using a 28 degree 7 iron.

    I am finding this out. That’s why I’m starting to use a urethane cover ball more.

    Oh no, this is perfectly fine as this is also what is part of the new driver line. I like watching reviews to see which ones I should stick away from since I am a high spin player. But I generally try to hit all of the top brands to see if one would suit me better than the others.

    My friend of 30 years had an old Taylormade driver from 2008 in a combo set he got. He traded it in for the Cobra LTDx and hits Conra woods as well. I will agree that when he misses, his misses make my misses look like I should be playing pro.

    What I mean by main guys are the ones that have a YouTube following. The Rick shiels, Matt fryer, Peter finch, and the now club champion guys. They all reviewed them. Just saying based on watching them it looks like Cobra gave up a lot compared to the others.
