Two Drivers?

[ole gray]

If you could afford to have two drivers in your posession, which two would you own? 

 

1 - My Cobra F6 is definitely a keeper!  It's the most consistent driver I have ever bagged.

 

2 - I would add a Ping G400.   Ping drivers in the past have worked well for me.

Why would you own two drivers if one of them is "the most consistent driver you've ever bagged".

 

I guess if you have the monetary means and like switching equipment because that is what you enjoy, than more power to you.  

 

Otherwise, I see it doing more harm than good.

I would like to have a back up in case my most consistent driver became inconsistent. At some point we like to game something different when things go south and as we all know, it happens.

A friend of my dad's carries two drivers. He plays in some pretty competitive tournaments, so it must be beneficial for him

I've bagged two drivers in the past. (One served as a fairway wood back when wood heads were smaller). I have several old drivers in my closet but I would never switch to one of them. If something becomes inconsistent it's a me issue not an it issue.

 

The same holds true through the bag - I have tons of clubs in my closet but I'm sticking with what I'm gaming currently.

One course I play regularly has no hole where I wound need a fairway wood. Usually bag my driver and the Big Bertha Mini driver there - bunch of holes where an errant driver can get you in trouble. Seems to work okay

If I had an extra spot in my bag more money than i knew what to do with....I would consider carrying 2 drivers at times......with the adjustability we have available, set one up for draw and one for fade, etc...

I bag the BBA 816 DBD. I also have 2 X2hot pro drivers in the garage. I hit them all equally well, I could bag any of them, but I am hitting the DBD pretty well, so no change yet, I may save some hits on it this winter and switch to the old X2hot.

I believe it was Mickleson who bagged two drivers a couple years or so ago. 

 

I wouldn't bag two at the same time unless it was something like John was talking about.  Maybe a mini in the bag with the big dog.

A friend of mine has two drivers and for no reason at all. Actually it is because he has no idea what equipment he has. One of the drivers is a more modern large driver, I think it is called the killer bee. The other driver is part of an old set, that has 1w stamped on it. It is a steel headed driver with a steel shaft. The head is smaller than a modern 3w, and is about the size of a modern 5w.

I would own my current KZG in its current set-up, then I'd get fit for another one that is “long drive” length, 47”, to use for scrambles. That would be fun!!!

My buddy bags 2 sometimes, he's the best golfer I know personally, so I can't really argue with his methods.

 

If it didn't cost me anything, I'd do it. Otherwise I'd just go for another, more in-depth fitting with my Epic. I want to hit some of the JDM shafts to see what kind of numbers I can get. When I went for my Epic fitting, they only had a few of the "upgrade" shafts available. I like the Epic because I can feel where I hit off of it, and it has a different tone when you hit out of the middle as well.

I used to do basically the same thing when playing the minis on certain courses. I would pull out the 3 wood and bag one of my Penna Persimmon drivers for short lay up par 4s etc. Actually I could hit my 10.5* off the deck if need be. I can not for the life of me hit a newer big headed driver off the deck

I have an Epic SZ in the bag with an AD DI 7x and a 917 D3 with a 76g HZRDUS Yellow 6.5 for when the Epic misbehaves.

I'd go with the Taylormade Jetspeed and my current Cobra King F7+

Both feel like butter when I hit them.

I've been thinking about getting a Wishon 919F/D or a similar deep-faced 3-ish wood from another manufacturer. I don't really hit 3w off the deck, only as a safe tee club. So it might be nicer to have a 3w with a larger, more forgiving, face for off the tee.

 

My thinking if I ever did need to play it off the deck, the taller face would lead to a lower trajectory bullet which definitely has its uses on the course.

I'd bag two of the exact same drivers...then go out with a foursome I DON'T know and on a bad drive, either break the shaft in two or toss the driver in the lake....on the next hole I'd casually pull out the backup driver just to see the expressions on their face   I kid of course...since driver abuse is real...  I'd put a 983K as a second driver in the bag since I could actually hit that off the deck (well I use to about 15 years ago...)

I have 2 right now but ones an old Adams F11 I painted blue and haven't played it since 2013.

 

So first driver would be the SLDR + Whiteboard combo I currently have.  I've tried to kick this thing out of the bag so many times it's not even funny.  It just works well for me though.

 

2nd driver I would like to get is an Epic SZ + VA Composites Raijin.  I already have the shaft and I've been on the lookout for the head for a while now.

[robertson153]

I only know one person who carries two drivers. One SLDR driver and a SLDR mini driver. He uses the mini for low burners and the other for high fades.

In fairness to me I got fit for the 917 and Callaway sent me the Epic to replace the 816 DBD that I cracked. The Epic SZ ended up being better.

1. PXG 0811x

2. Titleist 917 D3

[chemclub]

I switch back and forth between my Wishon 919THI and TaylorMade R11. The R11 is ancient by today's standards, but it still hits a good ball.

[JDHolmes]

I have Cobra LTD with Evenflow blue, with Ping G AD DI backup with an Epic backup to that. Theres a Cobra F7 and GBB DBD to back those up if one gets taken out of the bag

I had two earlier this year, where I played the Srixon 565 most of the summer.  Toward late summer only having 13 clubs in the bag, i put the 917 D3 in along with it.  Played a few casual rounds by myself, where I hit both drivers off the same tee with the SC200 to give me some numbers oneach.

 

The Carry numbers were very close, but when I got to the balls in the fairway, the 917 was usually 10 to 15 yards further, I think the lower spin and more of a mid vs high flight gave me a bit more rollout.

 

So I carried both for a while.

 

I now only have the 917, but if I were to add a 2nd driver, it'd be either the F7/F7+ or I would consider the Epic if I went and got fit for it.

I sorta got off of the original question. Now I have a lot of drivers both metal and persimmon

My number 1 driver is the 915 D2 the back up would have to be the Homna G1-X

I haven't had a Titleist driver since the 910 D2. Hmmmmmmmm

It's been so long since I've played a round with him, I don't remember why he carries two. I think one he draws with and the other is either fade or straight.

Whoops skipped the possession part. Oh well, reading wasn't my best subject at school 😀

I actually have three drivers at this time the F6, bio cell plus and AMP cell. I don't really get along with the bio cell plus, so that one's probably going to be sold or traded in, the AMP cell is really consistent and pretty long since reshafting it with a 3/4" shorter prolaunch red shaft, so I think it's pretty safe as my backup for a few more years.
