Re: new driver advice

What driver do you have at the moment? Head, shaft, loft?

If you're genuinely getting 250yds with an 80mph swing I'd stick with it. I get 240 carry with a 100mph swing.
If the ball is dropping dead then it's either launching too high or you have too much spin.

Re: new driver advice

it does launch high,10deg old burner with stiff shaft

Re: new driver advice

Not that I'm much use on shafts, but do you know what make and model the shaft is? Others on here might know if it's known to launch high.

Where did you get the figure of 80mph from, and is that with your driver or an iron?

shaft is graffoly ns six stiff had it put it on advice, not by pro ,had the swing measured, with 7 iron though

That partly explains it then. That would equate to approx 90-95mph with driver. 250 in the air is still a long way for that though. Do you get no run even in the summer on hard fairways?
