Way less. Peter Finch is genuinely funny, whereas Crossfield is funny in a David Brent laughing-at-him way. Give the Monday Night Golf Show a watch on Rick's channel. That'll give you a great idea of what they're like. Especially the Q+A at the end. Pete's story about why he's not on Tour was hilarious.

sounds worth a look- never come across this, got a link?

Added both to my youtube subscriptions.

Never been into these "anti slice" driver and reckon many handicap golfers will still slice to one degree or another. Personally I'd be looking at the reason why I hit it so far left to right and getting a lesson to stop it and get to the root cause. Once I could hit a driver reasonably straight, reasonably often (and yes I can do that now :ears:) then it opens up so many more driver options going forward

Ive had R7 draw and a cally Ft-5 draw. Neither worked. try one of these g30's next time you get the chance. I have a feeling you might be quite surprised.

It doesn't fix a problem, just limits the damage. The Mizuno mp650 was aimed at tour players. It allowed them to go hard and the ball without the fear of the dreaded hook.

Is that what the slide weight thing does on a SLDR?

Yep. It works too, although I wouldn't like to say it will stop you hooking/slicing.

The first round with mine I set the weight only a few notches towards draw and spent most of the round looking for my ball in the trees left. It's been on neutral ever since.

When i was fitted for the SLDR I was hitting huge hooks (8 degree inside path). I was fitted with the weight fully in the toe to counteract my shot shape and it was almost impossible to hit a hook and I had a lovely straight ball flight

That was fine until I knew the weighting was there, as soon as I was aware I started trying to hit it straighter with my swing but along with the weighting it started to cause the opposite problem. I have since straightened out my path and shot shape and now have it set neutral. If you have a consistent "fault" and can keep that fault even though you know the club is weighted to correct that fault then it works great, sadly for me my mind will overthink and try and fix the fault despite knowing ive moved the weighting

I had a chat with Rick Sheils at the Taylor Made ay at Trump and he came across as a good lad as was Peter Finch. Crossfield was another story, you could hear him from everywhere.

I had a TM R9 when I first took up the game.

That had moveable weights. Face closed and more weight in left heel.

I could still (... Read as would) cut a huge slice.

Personally, I'm not sure any amount of tech' can account for a poor swing path/face angle.

Maybe the ball will slice less, but it's still a slice.

This x1000

I've been playing just over a year now. I've got an R11s with the adjustable face and the ability to change the weight in the heel. I've had lessons with my pro and even setting it to maximum offset (to not slice) and can still slice over and over.
I'll admit it does reduce it a bit, but it I can still slice.
