I will be purchasing a new driver in the new couple of days. I have narrowed it down to two clubs.

A Nike Sumo squared 13* senior shaft and a Macgregor Mactec NVG2 11.5 degree senior shaft.

I have a slower swing speed cause of a bad back, so I want to keep my swing fairly slow, at least until I'm good enough to consider changing shafts, and my flexibility is better.

What would you do? Thanks

Personally, I'd get fitted to see which one performs better (distance and accuracy). Then I'd buy the exact club I demo'd.

Definitely, but I will say I have the NVG2 Tour and it's a great performing driver and very underrated.

      Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.

      Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down.

      I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.

      Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
