As many THPers have read over the last 2 years or so, I have dropped my 3 wood for a 2nd driver. The 2nd driver is shorter in length, shallower in profile and a head that has more spin to it overall. Some have scoffed at the notion, but honestly I am not sure I will ever change the setup. More forgiveness and a club I hit far more often than the 3 wood it replaced.
While at lunch today, THPer Mward and I were discussing this setup and I explained to him that he is the perfect example of someone that would benefit from it. He carries both a 3 wood and 5 wood, and for the most part, his 3 wood is only used off the tee, because he hits his 5 wood very well off the deck.
So with that, an experiment was started and will be tested out by him over the next couple of months. We gave him a couple of shafts that we cut down and he will play with the same driver head, but switch shafts in between shots for the time being. His regular Callaway Epic Sub Zero at 45" and a second one at 43".
This thread will be for his experiment findings as well as questions and conversation about doing this as a whole.
