Very nice. I'm not a big fan of long shafted drivers.
What's the distance difference between the shorty and your regular gamer?
i love the setup here and the colors just made me start thinking of Augusta! And THP of course.Here is a look at it
And the grip I went with
This setup is an interesting one. Will you have this with you at club clash?
Maybe. Im not playing, so not sure I will have my bag with me.
thats cool. Looking forward to your thoughts about this setup. Might have missed it but what effects if any did have going away from the stock setup and it's design to this setup have.?
Looks even cooler with that new shaft in it
This thing was a machine today.
Wardy saw it first hand. Played a course where it would get used a lot and even pulled it on some holes I normally wouldnt. Nice high flight, super forgiving (he can share more on that) and a distance about 15-20 yards shorter than my driver.
FWIW, gave it a try off the deck for some fun on a extra ball on 17 and absolutely POUNDED it, which surprised me quite a bit. And no, its not something I would normally do.
This thread is making me want to grab my old SLDR white (13*) and turn that into my 3 woodThis thread makes me want to put my old R9 supertri back in the bag as a second driver. It currently has 43.5" heavier shaft in it. I know I'm getting more distance out of the XR and I'm pretty consistent with it, but my R9 was a great club for me. I felt like I never missed a fairway with it. One thing that doesn't make it ideal is the 9 degree loft, but hearing these results really has me thinking.
I guess the other option is to turn my XR into a 2nd driver. I could turn that thing up to 12.5 degrees and pair it with a 43" shaft. That would allow me to put the 816 DD in the bag as the true big dog.
Can confirm, he killed it on the regular. I tried it on one hole just for kicks and put it right beside my driver. The club is basically cheating
At that point, i'd forget about the idea of the second driver and just throw that in the bag.
