I'm just surfing the net after just having gone out to the shed to regrip my new driver, an Adams 9032LS Speedline. And all the sudden it dawned on me, out of all the clubs I've changed this year (all except my 3w/backup 3w and putter (insight 12* and TM HFS r7 and my pro platinum)), I've gone through soooo many drivers!
So I figured to ask, where are you going through clubs in the bag so far this season? And if you are dropping in a certain spot a lot, go down the list.
For me it's just the driver. In order:
-Adams 9032LS 8.5 SNV6 (if the shaft doesn't quite measure up the next one to go in will be a devotion 65-X)
-Adams 9015D 9.5 Accra SC65. Once the 9032LS is in play I'm putting a whiteboard 73-S in and that will be in the backup bag.
-R9 TP 10.5 (played it 2 open at 9.5) with both SNV6 and SVS6. This thing just went nowhere for me, still trying to get rid of it... Looks nice at setup though and really liked the feel, too bad..
-909D2 9.5 Fubuki 73-S. Really enjoyed the look and feel of this driver, but then all the sudden the ball started dropping and went nowhere every so often, thought it to be fake for awhile but then found out it wasn't, at this point with the loss of confidence it was time to go.
-R7 425 stock RE*AX x-flex. Nice driver, but just used it early along with the 983k until I got the D2.
-983K 9.5 Aldila NV 65-S. This was my first ever new driver, old faithful, will never sell, get rid of, or lend it out. If I ever have some weird difficulties I pull this out and hit some and my swing just comes back. I'd compare it to a gf on the side that when you fight with one you just go see the other and have a good night .
So 6 drivers so far this year.... yikes. Lets hope the 9032LS stays in, if not the 9015D has been performing decently enough to finish out the year as a temporary gamer.
