The driver sweet spot

[pokerjoke]

My question would be has the driver got a sweet spot?

Following on from a thread recently about a pured iron I believe yesterday I pured my driver.

It was the first time ever since taking up golf I can safely say it was such a good strike I hardly felt it.

The result was a drive over 30 yards longer than I have ever hit it on the same hole.

Also I might have found a little technique that has transformed my driving only a little more time and a couple of rounds and I might divulge.

mine doesn't, well not when i hit it. though a friend of mine that is a trainee pro that hits it miles finds it everytime he has a shot with it

I found it on mine once....or maybe I imagined it..😩

I am fairly confident all my clubs have virgin sweet spots.

Doesn't exist in my bag, up there with unicorns, hens teeth and rocking horse poo

Playing in the mid week last Wednesday I smashed a drive, and it made a lovely noise and there wasn't much in the way of feedback running through my hands and it flew high and long....that may have been the sweet spot....next hole hit it back out of the toe again!

I was told by a club fitter the sweet spot on a driver is the size of a pln head, not certain it's true but it would explain I don't find it every time.

Yup, mine is right out the hosel low on the face, well it must be as that's where I've been hitting it for the last 6 months!

Funny that. I hit an awesome drive today that went 30 yards longer than I normally can squeeze out. Never repeated.

Glad you're using a driver now, Tony.

Giving it a go mate.

I will pop up the club soon and see you guys are you still finishing about midday?

Is it like a woman's sweet spot

 

[HomerJSimpson]

If these new fangled metal ones don't you can be certain they never existed back in the day of persimmon woods

:rofl:

No existent or rarely hit without any sort of backlash such as deep rough

Of course it has, otherwise why would Ping have the G series ?? :thup:

A bit after I would say. Roll-ups tend to be 8.30 for 9, so a 12.45 finish. So, yeah, you're right 😂

Yesterday I hit 2 drives which felt very strange at the time- so much so I turned to my PP after they said nice shot and said "it didn't feel right"... walked up and both were easily my best drives of the day.... so that's what that feels like!

It is true
