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.

depends on what you hit best, but i personally don't like the sumo, tried it last year, i can't get past the shape, plus it has a shallower face than conventional drivers

    • Day 446 - 2025-12-20 Woke up early and got some swings in before teaching putting all day. Looking forward to doing the same tomorrow.
    • It's miles better, though.
    • Went up to Erie for a lesson. I still need to work on how I shift my weight into my right leg and turn into the right leg. I extend it too much and externally rotate it too much. That all causes me to over rotate the hips and cause weight shift issues in the downswing. I need to feel like my right leg gains flex (it doesn’t), and my knee cap faces forward. The right hip sinks back and right. I need a need a ton more internal rotation. I still have some right elbow issues in the backswing. The path is better, but too much right elbow bend. I need to maintain width in the right elbow and let my right shoulder retract more, let’s say at A3, which helps keep that right arm extended.
    • Day 130 12-20 Today was just swinging what i had and go from there. Did focus on getting to lead side. Recorded swings for lesson  and hit real balls.
