Driver Forgiven!

[Crow]

Since buying Rickg's Mizuno MP630 Fast Track I've had nothing but grief with it:
From day one I was getting huge fades, some to open face and some to hitting out the heel and generating a mass of gear effect.
Distance wasn't great either, as you'd expect with a big slice. Numerous visits to the range and trying every variation on ball position (forward, backward and sideways), tee height, strength of grip etc, etc. I was ready to go back to my old MP-001.

Last chance saloon today and I just concentrated on basic technique, nice wide takeaway, a good turn through and complete the follow through, best day's driving I can remember!

From 11 tee shots I found the fairway with 8, the 3 that missed were down the left and distance was good. I might even treat it to a nice warm wash and towel down now.

Its always nice when the driver starts working. It can be such a weight off your shoulders not having to worry about where each drive is going to end.
My driver goes bad when my alignment slips.

I think I'd hit a few bad ones at the start and then started tinkering with everything, moving weights around and changing my swing instead of just making a good basic swing.

Must admit I've been fading the ball alot recently(something I never did, Usually hook it). Found since I twisted my ankle, backleg. I was not getting though the ball. Moved the ball back about 2" seems to have cured it. (until next time anyway).

My driver and I have a frosy relationship at best but after today I've uttered the letters RBZ at it and see if I can shame/scare it into performing tomorrow
