there is such a thing as a safe drive compared to giving it the full tonk.
How often do you use a driver?

I tested a variety of drivers yesterday evening, but that topic is for another thread!

For me there are about 9 holes at our place where I would hit driver on most rounds.
Clearly wind conditrion are a factor that may change this number - sometimes the opposite to what you would expect in that hitting into a strong wind on our 10th and 11th leaves you with no viable shot to the green so a long iron may be the choice, although clearly there are other times when you go for it on some holes which you normally may not if there is a back wind .
It also depends on how well I am hitting it - sometimes its the best club in the bag - other times the opposite so it stays in the naughty corner a bit more on those days!!
