I played today and..(Rolling) -originally created by JohnnyDee

Nice after-work round, course was busy, but tempo was spot on, no waiting around, first time that's ever happened to me, so slightly impressed by that :sneaky:

The weather was cold and windy...very windy. A few shots literally stopped in the air, and whilst I am a championship-calibre slicer, I couldn't be anything but impressed when a straight high tee shot blew across the huge fairway. It wasn't a slice, but one of the best fake lookalike slices ever, thanks to the wind.

only used 3 wood, 5 wood and 3 hybrid off the tee, and my 3 wood is really doing well, even though I hit 33% fir, every tee shot was playable, so I am absolutely loving the G425 Max 3 wood and G400 SFT 5 wood.
Can anyone tell me if the G425 SFT driver is as solid as the G425 fairway metals? I had a G430 max, but couldn't hit it at all, nothing but huge slices (I went back to my stealth and hit everything fine, so the whole G430 thing was very confusing)

So while my tee shots were doing great, my iron play started to get a bit better too, which led to a lower score today, and my short game is still improving, plus my putting is on fire. No 3 putts today, 29 in total.

Shot a 94, which I think is the lowest score of the year thus far, and the first time everything was working together! Normally, one thing works well, and the other 3 things don't
If you're a slicer, you definitely want to look at the SFT drivers. I've had three of them now. They are second to none at straightening your ball flight out. I've gone to SFT in my woods as well, I've never tried anything else that I'm able to get on target as consistently as them with my little out-to-in swing.

The Max driver has the adjustable weight port but even in the draw position it's nowhere near as much as the SFT has. The G430 SFT actually has a moveable weight too, but it's 'draw' and 'draw+' which is like a superdraw setting. 😂 Aaaand that is the one I use. 😁

You're telling me everything I want to hear. :LOL:

I'll be on the lookout for a g425 sft. I was so pumped when I got the G430 Max. I hit a couple of decent drives, but could hardly hit a drive 250 yards or straight most of the time, whereas my 3 wood G425 Max is a monster and was outdriving the G430 by 15-20 yards and most importantly, a slight fade or straight. I have a G400 SFT 5 wood, which is a 3 wood turned up to 17 and with a 5 wood shaft, and I hit that beautifully this evening too, which gave me the bug about that feeling and sound and flight to have that, but in a driver. :love:
