Lady's driver ...

[harpo_72]

Now I am looking to do a bit of experimenting, and I am wondering can I get away with using a lady's driver head and re- shaft it with a "very" manly shaft ? I cannot imagine that the head will be weaker than a gents club. Any opinion on this ?

Im wondering why?

Is it extra loft you are after?

that or hes seen one in a nice shade of fuschia thats caught his eye :whoo:

I would imagine they will be weighted to launch very high as, I suspect, the majority of Laydee Golfers have slow swing speeds.
Stick a "manly" shaft in it and you may be bothering passing Dreamliners...
Can't see a reason to want to do it...

Speaking of which. Have you still got your G15 hybrid

my cousin was playing a womens 13degree driver. he mentioned putting a mens shaft in it. ill ask and see if he ever got round to it or if he is even still playing it?

Why?
Do you want it?...

Might also have a lower overall weight than a gents head, which may make the finished swing weight, er, interesting........

Are you referring to my 27 degree G15 Hybrid that Uncle Bob insulted when he saw it?


Well, actually, yes I still have it, its not in my bag

I really must stick it up for sale

Cannot fathom why a guy playing off 8 would have any reason to do this

 

[harpo_72]

Well they do come in some rather daring colours ! And yeah it's to do with he available lofts (costs look low as well). Head weight is an interesting point that I had not considered, would mean a hot melt may be required. As for hitting dream liners, aren't they grounded at the moment ?
As for manliness well no issues for me when I belt it past people and then tell my fuschia pink driver is made for ladies .. I won't wear white trousers though!!

Handicap means nothing in these matters .. Why be hung up on it ?

Not hung up on it, just cant understand why you or any male would want to do this? There are plenty of drivers out there that give ample launch/height why look at ladies products

 

[garyinderry]

he just text to say, he now playing a 12 degree mens cobra driver. he still has the womans one lying around.

 

[harpo_72]

Was there any reason why he went to the men's one?

 

[garyinderry]

he always said he was 10 yards shorter with the womens driver but down the middle. hes playing an offset driver which he says "suits him".

 

[harpo_72]

So the offset suggests he has shot shape issues meaning the 10 yards could be just down to shape?

 

[garyinderry]

he has a swing and grip only a mother could love. hes quite strong and has a decent short game. never had lessons and just worked on things till he found a swing / grip that gets him around. plays off 13.
