Sorry if in wrong section. 

I am looking for a good driver to replace my wilson deep red 2 max and was looking at a nike vapor fly pro driver which looks great. I don't want a new one as a good one cost more than I want to spend.

So do you think that £70 including postage is a good price for a nike vapor fly pro driver in excellent condition?

That driver has held its value well over the years. It has a bit of a following. In terms of cost 70 Quid is a good, if not great price. I can't tell you whether it will out perform your Deep Red. Too many variables. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

If I can recall correctly, that Deep Red 2 driver is a high launching forgiving driver that is probably aimed at a higher handicap.

Have you hit the Nike Vapor Fly Pro?

It launches lower with lower spin.  Probably superior in every way to your  Wilson if you have the swing and speed to take advantage of it.  So if it performs well for you it’s a small investment for a good driver.

Thanks for the help I have now bought it as it was a good price.

Good luck with it, hope it fits your swing, let us know.

Hopefully going to the driving range on sunday to test it out will report back after doing so.

Went to the driving range yesterday to try it out and boy it felt good. 

Just give it a half swing and a little tap and the ball goes 150 yards easy but give it a full swing with plenty of power and the ball goes a long way.  At times I was hitting the ball over the bushes at the end of the range which is not difficult as I think the range is only 200 yards long. 

I guess they don't expect people to hit it that far.

    • Interesting changes. The idea of relegation and promotion have always been there in a different form (getting and losing your card etc and qualifying for bigger events) but it looks like they want to define it better for top tier events. The Tour has always had A and B level events (and even lower). It will be interesting what they choose as the Challenger Series events and whether some tournaments go to the Challenger Series that used to be prestigious. Not sure how the networks will take to this knowing they have “Challenger” Series events defined that way now. Also, I’m not happy that John Henry and Theo Epstein are involved. Look what Henry has done to the Red Sox.

    • I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.  
    • Day 48, June 23.  After work today, I took 25 minutes in my practice room;  6-iron, same everything as yesterday except the time and count.
