So I played in a tournament yesterday, and gutted out a 97 in spite of having only an hour of sleep and not having touched my gamers for a couple of weeks.
Three things were evident. The Vokeys are strict pros, my pitches went AWOL till the last few holes. They're not easy to play with, but they're money when I was on.
My putts were wild. They were either way too short or too long, but fortunately I made a handful of long ones to save my skin, including a birdie from the collar.
My drives were short. I have a regular playing buddy whose drives I usually keep up with, but I wasn't happy with my driving distance.
Which brings me to my two questions.
1. One of my group was gaming an M1, and I'm thinking of getting one. I've been experimenting with around 4 bargain bin drivers the past year, and none of them came near the distance of my old Wishon. I figured that the M1 could be good, because it had a whole gamut of settings that could solve my drive that was too high and had too much spin. I was trying out drivers down to 8.5 degrees with a shaft an inch longer but they didn't perform any longer. Question - should I pull the trigger and buy the M1?
2. The only things the stock M1 cannot address ara a heavier swing weight and heavier overall weight. Question - from your experience, has the current wave of lighter drivers added to your driving distance?
Thanks in advance.
