Sldr owners - how much did you loft-up?

[Oddsocks]

As per the title I'm interested to see just how much people lofted up, any player who moved across post what you come from and what you ended up with.... And anyone who went to the 430 version.... Be extra interesting to hear what you found!

Had an 8.5 Titleist 910D3, changed to a 12 degree SLDR (460cc) set at 11.5

I went up to a 14 degree driver - lofted up by 2 degrees :thup:

 

[MikeH]

I have 430 and went up to 12 deg (typiclaly all other drivers I have are around 10/10.5)

 

[ManinBlack]

9.5° to 10.5°. I hit it fairly high, even with a low launching shaft, so probably not typical.

 

[CMAC]

dont own one, but when being semi-fitted I went from my 9* Ping to a 10.5* SLDR, it did go very high in my eyes but maybe the LM would show its better.

 

[And29]

Went from my 9.5 X2 Hot
To 12 SLDR S plus 15 yards easy

I actually went down half a degree when I had my SDLR S to 10.
SLDR drivers are good drivers but mine never behaved for me so I'm using Ping 30 its behaving more

I went to 12 degrees on mine... taken me places no other driver has. Although I think the new 9.5 degree aeroburner wouldn't be far behind it.

9* deg r11s to 10.5 sdlr was 12 deg head turn down to 10.5 due to my dodgy swing plane!

 

[HomerJSimpson]

How many still have there's or have changed?

3 wood for me. Had 15* and bought a 15* SLDR and it works best at 16.5*

 

[MadAdey]

I went from the R11s in 9* to a SLDR in 12* set to 10.5*. Also went from a 70g x-stiff Fubuki to a 70g stiff Black Tie

 

[Oddsocks]

Seems 12* is a very common option.

 

[peterlav]

I went from Ping G15 10.5 degree to SLDR S 14 degree, love it, would take something very special to make me change

 

[garyinderry]

You all weren't hitting up enough on the ball for an optimal launch angle.

Sack your old pro. 😂

I no longer do, it never suited me, Ping G30 fits me well

I only got the 12* model because the fitter advised me to as he could see me opening the face on the 10.5 model. I like to see a slightly open face and going for the 12 and de-lofting it automatically makes the face sit open.

Always used 9 degree drivers.....my SLDR was fitted at 12 (set to 11.75) degrees and is still in the bag.

I've never understood this, to me an Open face is more loft and vice versa
