NEED HELP ASAP, I Think my Hammer is Defected.

[samtheman]

I went to the range tonight with my new Hammer driver and my old Ping rapture driver. After hitting several drives with my Ping ( approximately 230 yards ) I pulled out the Hammer and hit the fist ball close to the same yardage as my old Ping ( thinking to myself I must have hit an old range ball ) I rummaged through the basket looking for a newer ball. I hit drive after dive and all of them were going about the same distance (approximately 230-240 yards) the driver does not appear defected but something is definitely wrong because I’m not getting the extra 50 yards. The man at the range said he did not have time to look at my Hammer tonight but he would tomorrow so, I’m getting off work early.

Does anyone have any ideas what maybe wrong if not, I’ll report back tomorrow.

Did you yell BOOM when you hit it? I think that helps with something.

Can I feed him?

[jacob1]

Why not

LOL....maybe POW will work

Were you properly aligning yourself with a range of snow-capped mountains? Otherwise, the ball will obviously fall short of its own expectations and fall to the fairway as if a mere mortal hit it. Also, grunting and yelling "POWW!" like the god himself, Jack Hamm, will increase yardage substantially.

Find some mountains and I can assure you that you will be pleasantly surprised!

Lame.. the first hammer thread was funny, the other two not so much

I'm telling you....you should have just contacted me about "The Trebuchet V1"...

This awesomesauce product guarantees over 350 yards of rule neglect per shot...your buddies will quiver with desire...

What's wrong is that this is the oldest "joke" going around.

Also, the word you are looking for is "defective", not "defected".

I too bought the Hammer (Ebay...$30.00, free shipping...still wasn't worth it, even with the 3 wood) It's impressive looking but the people at Golf Galaxy kept looking at me funny when I yelled "POW" in the simulator. I really didn't expect much, I shouldv'e bought a Swoosh

I found the easiest way to consistently drive a pro v1 over 450 yards.  All I had to do was get in my golf cart and drive over 450 yards and drop the ball where I said it would go.

Maybe the Hammer drivers were built in East Germany during the Cold War, then "defected". Could happen.
