When I got fitted, I was torn between the Cobra and Callaway. The Callaway edged it out. You made a point about that ai face. Even on toe hits, I can get it out past 260 without a ton of extra spin.
I'm kind of disappointed in the club heads that correct your bad swing. Im not great and do hit a bad shot on more than a few occasions but i want to correct it by fixing my swing nit buy a vlub head that does it for me. I hit a draw shot a lot and i want to fix it in my swing not the club head counter balancing it.
Who's still rocking a McHenry that is well over 20 years old?
I noticed the shafts each of you used looked identical . Are they and if not what’s different. What are they, why do you love them?
So are these driver tested with stock shafts and if so which ones or were they fit with custom shafts?
Launcher XL2 should be in the mix.
Like listening to a couple old ladies
Why would a high handicap determine your driver head? I understand one might be more forgiving.. butt.. does that really help or fix a drive?
I'm still hitting my Cobra ZL Encore released in, what…2011? I put a new head on it recently, so it's like new. Every other year or so, I go to a demo day to hit all the new drivers. I STILL hit my Cobra as good, or better than any other driver as far back as 2 years ago (back surgery). Even had the Titleist rep tell me there was no way he'd buy a new one hitting mine as well as I do. Then, proceeded to ask to hit mine once 🙂. So, next spring i'm going to do the same thing. I'll go demo the new ones to see if it's worth dropping $500 or more. I know, at some point…i'll have to buy a new one. We'll see.
I feel like these guys are just like 90% of all golfers so this driver session was pretty accurate. Good work
The Kirkland brand driver is not hard to get you order it online. They ship it to your door.
Love my Ping G430 Max!!
I have to agree with the crowd about no Tour Edge. They are so accurate and long the C725 makes the game easier. Titleist? If I ever hot one of their drivers without slicing I'd collapse on the T-Box. Same for Taylormade. Plus, I would never buy a new driver. Used clubs are just as good and guilt free. Cobras have always been my clubs of choice. Costco??? Where did you even find one of their heads. I'm happy if I can find a box of their balls at Costco. I remember when their irons came out and were sold out in 20 minutes. What exec in their main office thought that was a good plan?
Great video guys just real awesome not boring and keep repeating yourself good job !! You should do video of this top5 VS last years top 5 that would be amazing!! I got a G430 before Elyte came out I want one so bad can’t afford it lmao but great content Gentlemen!!
The shaft has more to do with how it performs than the head.
The guy needs to learn how to wear a cap.
Ping LST is the best driver period. If you have a consistent swing, it has more punch than these MAX clubs. I would like to see the low spin drivers compared to each other.
I got a cobra LTDx and I’m absolutely in love with it. I’ve never hit a driver as good as I do with a cobra
Sad to knock the look of the Cleveland and making that the reason to bin it when it honestly out performs most of the 9 you left on the table….
So, you guys are fitters and yet, you each hit the same shaft with the same configurations? You guys have very different swings, so to make an accurate comparison and minimize personal bias (understand it can't b eliminated), you should have hit each club with the optimum configuration. This was a fluff piece.
I personally liked the Ping G440 Max and seemed to hit it better and more accurately. plus my swing speed increased 3mph and that means greater ball speed. I just can't hit a Callaway.
This seems like flawed logic to start a video. There are many mid to high handicaps with high swing speeds generating too much spin and they need LS drivers.
The lack of a low spin driver for me is increasing my handicap for sure, also due to higher handicaps not having the best angle of attack on the ball often leading to excess spin, going with a low spin head can help them significantly.
Maybe characterize why it would or would not be a fit for high handicappers so they atleast know there is a solution out there to help them.
It would also help to know that since they are high handicappers that may need a LS driver, which ones of the LS drivers are most forgiving and best fit for those players. Just horrible logic
We have the same taste. I use Elyte driver and Miura KM-700 irons.
I just got fitted for a driver and hit all top five, i wanted the ping so bad, but my dispersement was all over the place. The driver i hit better was actually the cobra x, i was shocked at how i was hitting that thing 270yds disp. Only 18yds
