How did you find the LM figures Rick, especially with the driver. I don't mean actual numbers, but were you surprised/disappointed or about what you were expecting?

They were pretty much spot on for me......I know I hit my 3 wood around 220-235 and the LM showed 225 carry 238 total average.......same consistent results for the 5 wood and hybrid.....exactly what I hit them on the course.

The one I wasn't sure about was the driver......as you know, there is more room for error with a driver and I know I can hit mine anywhere from 230 to stupid distance.......(not putting it down as don't want the thread to go there..... :eek:)...the launch monitor showed 251 carry and 262 total...........it looks accurate and thats what I felt like it should have been ....

.....I just think ( and so does Alex) that there's room to eek out a bit more. I know it's unlikely for me to have optimal right head/shaft combo by accident, so this is where I think I can improve.....maybe not gain a massive amount in the distance but dispersion definitely ...

Did you try many other shaft options Rick? I only ask as everyone seems to get the best results out of the Orka Flatline shafts over the more 'well known' alternatives.
