Well iv ditched the 910's in favour of a Ping K15 Driver and 3 Wood....
I know some may slate me for doing it and probably say that its maybe a step in the wrong direction but im after consistency off the tee and i think these may well be my golden ticket...
It wont bother me one bit in the slightest if i pull these out on the tee and i get a few sniggers... Because if the range hits and flight are anything to go on ill be the one laughing walking off after 18..:lol:
Now im not going to hammer the 910's.... On the flipside they are really good clubs and iv played really good shots with them but truth be known iv always struggled with my driving.... Its a part of my game that if i can overcome the negativity of it i know i will reap the rewards...
Iv been working hard the past few weeks tightening up my fade and i just couldnt get the driver to tighten itself.... The hits were out of the middle and solid but no accuracy or natural shape to them at all....
Iv mulled over this decision for a few weeks and even again thursday night at the range i alternated between my 910 and the 12 degree K15.... There is no comparison whatsoever with accuracy..... Baby draws and straight shots with the Ping... Aim up the right and its right to left all day long......
Whatever type of swing i have the K15 just seems to work with it....
I know its probably bordering on training wheels but hell if it hits fairways and i know where i can aim confident in the knowledge that the ball will end up there then...
I know heaps of people that play with the looked down upon rolling of the forearms through the ball type release but i cant time this properly with any degree of consistency.... Plus i dont swing the club down the target line as long as some do...
It was something that my Pro had me doing to get the feel i suppose of what should naturally be happening when a ball is properly hit with a draw... But for the life of me i never settled into it....
I play a nice little fade now and im happy out with it..... You can argue the point that no club will fix a swing fault and if you asked me last year i would have agreed but whatever problem i have that prevents me from having a consistent shape and shot pattern with a driver is definitely minimized and helped by the Ping.....
Iv always been honest on here with my game and to be fair if these dont work ill be the first to hold up my hand and surrender but a few rounds with these will tell a tale or 2 im sure...
