What would AG give you a refund?. The crown isn't designed for hitting the ball.

Perhaps one of these is in order

If your hitting the ball with the crown, maybe use the refund on a course of lessons?

I think everyone has.
You have been really unlucky, I have a sky mark on my driver can't really expect the retailer to refund me for my shoddy golf.

Just don't tell them you hit it with the crown, tell them it made a noise after your first tee shot😃

I agree just surprised me it starts just after the face of the club. I would like there opinion on it

Bad humour although I still think valid.
Anyway, sorry to hear you've broken another driver, not sure they will honour any additional warranty as technically it's damage through miss use.

It's OK just pissed I am gonna have to splash cash. I thought I would take it and see what they say I just can't see how it did it. As it went forward about 100 yards not vertical and didn't take a divet so must of hit it square ish

Plenty of people hit bad shots. I have skied a few myself, not to mention shanked, thinned, fatted etc etc loads more. I didn't run back to the shop that sold me the club, though.

To me it's ludicrous to suggest that your misusing your driver if you're trying to drive the ball but sky it off the crown instead!
We've all done that and manufacturers know it happens, a driver should be be strong enough that the crown doesn't crack or deform if it does. I put this down to either a flaw in this particular driver or to manufacturers pushing the materials to the limits to move weight around to gain an extra 8 inches on the drive.
What next, an iron that cracks if you don't find the sweet spot? "Sorry Sir, you missed the sweet spot, that's misuse so no refund".
I'd class misuse as using your driver to hammer a tent peg in or some such.

I think I'd just take it back and tell them this happened on a drive and let them decide how to deal with it!

Definitely take it back. It's a golf club, it's designed to hit golf balls at high speed without breaking.
These suggestions that it's "misuse" because you missed the sweetspot are idiotic.
New clubs all come with warranties to protect against this, not sure how much warranty a demo club has from the manufacturer, but AG should replace it for you if you bought it recently.

They said they get chancers that have hit the wall at the range but you can clearly see the one mark from the ball and that's it

I'd be interested to hear what you think of the F5 when you get it. I've got an M3 now but thinking about changing it for an F5.
