    sdandrea1 I’m still an idiot I guess, I still want my distance, I miss the old days of flat out over powering the game. I do need forgiveness and that has changed what I accept, I can’t go for the pure distance drivers anymore. I wound up with a dark speed LS that a lot of people consider hard to hit, I seem to get along with it just fine, it’s better than my ping G30 LS and that was/is still pretty forgiving. Truth be told, I ought to be in SGI everything, but that’s harder with a high swing speed.

        Bravopilot Have a M1 if you want it?

        I’m good buddy but mucho thanks for the offer!…I hit my Cobra just fine and honestly don’t need to change it…just need to keep hitting it…oh no…these are not proper Ho words!

            DC300 That’s a lot of years between the G30LST and the Darkspeed LS. The Cobra is light years ahead of that old Ping on both distance and forgiveness. Drivers over the last 4 -5 years though seem to have maxed out distance and have focused on MOI/ forgiveness.

            As far as NEW drivers go… the Ping G440 LST gets high marks everywhere. Their Low Spin models have never been punishing. I grabbed a g400 LST and it rivals my g400 max in accuracy. Can’t wait to get them both on the monitor to compare distance. I’m thinking they will be close… and right about what I’m hitting new 2025 drivers.

                Not if you still make good speed. Go for it. My body is so beat up with arthritis, I have given up on pounding the ball and just try for the effortless moves.

                    Amen brother!

                      Typhoon I shot my shot on the Cobra, I’ll be working w it for a while haha. It’s not that I can’t buy something else, but I’m not completely ignorant, it’s me, not the club at this point. I like the Cobra, I need to play more or none of it will really matter.

                        sdandrea1 I still hit the ball a long way for a young old guy or old young guy, depending on your perspective. It’s just not what I could do when I was a young guy and it makes me a bit sad haha. My driver now is my 3 wood of old and I just don’t have it to turn it up like I used to. Eventually, I’m going to have to learn to golf, but for now, I’ll keep smacking and chasing.

                              Typhoon driving range freak. It’s actually more fun than playing.

                              THAT is a matter of opinion.😉

                                  Well the only way you’d be a freak is if you were there in a lime green speedo and tank top.
