I find it discouraging and somewhat hilarious that I still sky the ball, toe it, blade it, etc. with a 460cc faced driver. Usually I don't but when I do it's like I feel the golfers of old rolling over in their graves.

OP this was a pretty simple find... Were you just bored and just asked the question without searching the net

"My ball is on top of a rock in the hazard, do I get some sort of relief?"

The main character in the video looks like he has a 80 mph swing.

Yep. Bet he was barely getting the balls airborne to about 170 yards. In other news, I think I would still miss the sweet spot on that club 50% of the time.

I bought this for my kids, and of course had a go with it myself.  Very difficult to get any height or distance even with the tee.  Off the deck it may as well be a "tour striker" - like training aid.  Requires a perfect descending blow to elevate the ball more than a few inches.

If you still have a Kmart nearby they usually carry the "Green Monster" 520cc driver.  I would guess that it is no more forgiving than a quality 460cc stick.

If you just want a giant face on your driver so you don't whiff, then get a Cleveland Classic or Custom 270 or 290.  Largest, deepest face in golf (but the dirty secret is that they lack horizontal MOI due to the overly tall face).

A local pro shop has a 750cc drive head they sell. I'm sure you could do a search online.
