MDGolfHacker Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 I have been playing a Callaway FT5 Driver off & on for 15 years...it's still the best of my arsenal. I can't help but think I'm missing out on some new technology. I'll be in the Driver market again soon. Callaway Epic& Taylormade look great & I used to hit a Mizuno Driver that was killer. I'm just waiting for the weather to break for good! Sent from my iPad using MyGolfSpy That's my backup Driver! I actually hit it at the range yesterday with the intent of using it for the round. I was killing the ball long and straight too. I chickened out and put my current gamer, a TM R15, in. Let's just say I should of left the FT5 in the bag, lol.

shadow0861 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 I just got an EVNROLL ER2 and I can't seem to justify keeping it against my Odyssey Versa Tank Fang Marxman (I know those names are not in the right order and I am possibly missing one.

PAgolfer2017 Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Thinking about finding a place for a true driver fitting. I like tinkering but would love to go through a true fitting. I've been "fit" before, but only at big box stores and on a range with no monitor. May have to look for some places that are a little bit of a drive, but figured long term it'd be worth it.

If you get a new driver without a fitting and you just so happen to be be more accurate with it, it's more luck that you chose a driver that happened to fit you than anything else!

I think part of it was my swing but it was all over the place so I sold the head and plugged the Yellow into my XR16 Pro and it felt better. But since I've never been truly "fit" for a driver, that may be the route that I go.

ole gray Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 Even though I recently picked up a King Cobra F6 and we are romancing in the honeymoon stage, I can't keep my mine off the Srizon 565 driver! Damn you MGS! lol It's sooooooo hawt and sassy looking with all the right curves and my mouth is drooling like a bullmastiff over a steak bone.... That $449.00 price tag is a good deterrent at this time however if I found a slightly used one in excellent shape, it would be on like donkey kong! Note: My wife confiscated my Ping G30 that I picked up earlier this year. I traded in my Cally Fusion (which I'm second guessing)so I'm down to one driver (Cobra F6), with no back up horses in the shed.
