Hi everyone,

I've always struggled with a right miss on my driver. I've had several lessons and still struggle with this.

I've decided to invest in a draw driver and had the g400 sft (£279) and Rogue draw (£279) in mind. I've also just noticed that the Cobra f9 has been lowered to £249 so that has also caught my eye, as it has hosel settings for a draw bias.

I would massively appreciate any guidance on which might be the best choice from anyone with experience of any of these drivers (or anyone with a right miss off the tee!!)

Many thanks

Tom

Hi Tom. I can relate to your question as I also have for many many years fought the same right miss/tendency just like you. I can share what I’ve done the last few years to help with this. First and foremost, never quit trying to improve your swing and improve your club face & club path relationship. I’m 67 yrs old and will always fight over the top tendencies with my swing but improvement is possible. But, back to your question. Personally, I’ve seen improvement and gotten good results Using the Rogue Draw Bias driver. Secondly, I suggest to get the lower degree lofted driver and then ADD loft in your adjustment. This will close the face even more. Example.....if you normally play a 10.5 deg lofted driver, what you would want to do is buy a 9 deg driver and then add 1 or 2 deg of loft. Good luck and get that swing coming a little more from the inside. Hope this helps

Ping g400 sft. You will see nothing but the left side of the course. It is insane how this clubs prevents a slice.

Hello and welcome to TST. I’m a bit interested in your instruction details. Don’t want to be a Debbie Downer but you’re probably not gonna buy the solution. It’s a swing flaw. Perhaps a ‘draw bias’ driver could offer some correction..but I think it may be minimal. However...it really depends on why you’re hitting it to the right. 
I strongly suggest you post a video of your swing in the ‘members swing’ thread. Instruction can vary so much it’s hard to know if you’ve been given proper advice for your issue. There are some top notch instructors here who would give you great advice. Cheers.

    • Welcome to TST @Camjr.   We're glad you've joined.  
    • Angle is not a factor. I hit the ball 100’ high. Par is net birdie. My CH is 16. The rough between the bunkers is like 10’ wide though. That’s not something you’re going to try to hit on purpose. Most of the area to the left of that is fescue/native vegetation and I’m pretty sure there isn’t a flat lie in any of it. It’s the second hole.
    • Hello all.  I'm about to be 57 yrs old, started playing when I was 16, and have quit and restarted the game more times than I can count.  I had started playing a weekly round with a friend, and finally made the jump to Senior A shafted Tour Edge clubs.  Instantly gained 10 yds with an easier swing (why didn't I make that jump sooner???).  Glad to be a part of the group. Cheers all,
    • I think I like this hole.  It is a clear "Risk-Reward" choice.  Since most of the shots in your cone cleared the bunkers I would say they are a minor risk and not a big issue.  Playing the aggressive line may give you 70ish yards in from what looks to be playable rough while conservative play is 120ish from fairway.  I know you said 70 vs 120 is minor for you but how does the approach angle in impact your results?  I figure both strategies are playing for Birdie since holing out from either is mostly luck. Looking at your proximity hole I think it says @ 50 feet when hitting from the fairway from 100-150 and 40 feet if hitting 50-100 from the rough.  Neither of those is an easy birdie putt.   I like the approach angle from the rough between the bunkers & the adjacent tees over the angle from @ 120 in the fairway but I really do not like the idea of hitting onto the adjacent tee boxes and that may impact my confidence with making the shot.  Also, too far left may be a worse approach angle then from the fairway short of the bunkers. For me this may come down to how confident do I feel when I reach that tee box.  If I am stroking it well off the tee leading up to the hole I would try for over the bunkers and the better angle in but if I am struggling that day I would likely opt for the fairway to take more bad stuff out of play.
