You will never conquer golf.
So I bought a Cobra King F9 from a THPer and love it!
Here is what is totally off the charts wild in my understanding. I took the club out when I got it and hit some drives and I was happy with the results so yesterday I gamed it on an 18 hole round. Now, so you will know why this is weird - I am a fade and slicer type of guy. My fade/slice percentages are probably 80% or above and I usually play to those fades.
Here is what is weird. Hitting the F9 yesterday, I hit about 90% draws or even hooks! I am still shocked reeling from this. How did I go from a fade/slicer to a draw/hook simply because of this driver change? This is not my first driver change by any means. I have four different drivers I have used.
I could see one or two draws/hooks, but not the majority of the round being draws. Also I had some of the absolute best center fairway drives I have ever hit, yet I hit a lot of draws. I hit five draws with the driver in a row yesterday. I hit one hook/draw so bad in was in the next fairway! This really got me to thinking now that I can start working on dialing this in, but now I have to watch my stance and lineup.
My buddy was watching me swing and said it looks like my normal swing as far as he could tell. How in the world could using this driver turn my swing into draws/hooks, unless something about the top of the club is making my subconscious brain swing differently and I don't know it? Everything in my swing feels normal.
I cannot wait to get this driver out again and see if draw/hook thing continues. The nuances of this game never cease to amaze me.
