Blame them, no......but don't buy their shirts, gloves, shoes, bags, balls etc either.
Don't give them the high margin business if they won't give you the low margin business.

They are a lot of fun

It’s only 5cc smaller than the TM, so it’s not as drastic as it may seem, but it’s still a difference for sure.
Since it gives you 4 degrees of loft, id argue it’s extremely versatile and players could find this fit for multiple uses. So excited to get this in my bag.

Well here is the thing. I have never once been a I'll hit 3w guy off the tee, I'm driver always...unless there is trouble ahead in range. The mini allows me to hit less than driver but still gives me more forgiveness than a 3w would.

Been tough staying truly quiet on this one, but after hitting it at the MC it was worth the wait.

I’ve always tried to tell people how darn useful they can be if more would just give them a shot.
That said, def still not for everyone.
To add on - with the design of certain MDs, you aren’t sacrificing being able to use it off turf as well. Basically getting the benefit of a better tee club while maintaining the option to use as a FW.
What about the Mini vs 3 wood gives you the change of mindset there?

That depends on the design yes. I don't see myself using this off the deck much but certainly would consider it instead of a DOD situation that normally doesn't end well haha

Just a little random discussion note, more depth typically makes a club more difficult to hit off the deck as it shifts the CG axis, it’s why the easiest to hit from the turf woods/hybrids are on the shallow end of the spectrum.

The more forgiveness part really and a bit larger surface area to miss haha
To me it can be a Win-Win for some.
Just can't hit your Driver and 3W Head is too small to Tee up? That's why I think Mini just doesn't go away.
I'd argue most of us mortals are better off laying up than hitting 3w/Mini off the deck....

The Elyte mini remains the higher spinning of the minis I’ve worked with, so if that’s a need, it’s gonna be hard to beat.
Right - it depends on the design. My GT280 is a great club off turf but prob couldn’t do for some other minis.
Shouldn’t have to be much of an argument. It’s the hardest shot to pull off for an amateur.

Great write up @Jman!!!
I know I don't need a Mini, but you always make me want one, with statements like this:
"In terms of adjustability, the KING TEC MD features a dual weight system to allow mass movement forward/back to dial in spin, speed, as well as effectiveness off the deck for those that seek it."

I covered on 18 with it. Not the most aggressive line possible, but aggressive.
And that was with Jose’s red F3 in it.
