I have the original 3 Deep in the bag, which was what Phil started the whole thing with. It will be there until the day it breaks. Itās not quite as long as a driver, but the side spin reduction and lower trajectory make it a killer weapon on a lot of courses.
Seeing what it does in my hands, I would guess a lot of people lose a lot of distance and donāt have the actual game to play it like a ādriverā. I lose about 20 yards all things even, which is actually fine for me, but the mass population canāt lose that much and take a space in their bag thatās only good for shorter tee shots WHEN they hit it well. I can still miss the thing almost completely if I donāt stay down, which results in a 50 yard piddle shot, where I have to shake it off and go hit it again.
For me, Iāll can cover 300 yards with that, so itās not an instant death sentence, but if you are counting on one to go 170 yards on a well struck tee shot and then miss.. you are in big trouble. You would be better off out there at say 150 yards from the tee with a miss hit 460cc driver. Itās the same reason my wife took the woods out of her bag, a good drive might roll out to 175, super rare occasions 200 yards. Thereās no room for a three wood she canāt elevate from the fairway, nor is she really good enough to justify using it off the tee. Thatās the story of a mini driver for most people. The big hitters and the truly skilled guys like them, but thatās not going to sell.
