What length do you play your driver?  Most drivers come standard from the shop well over 45" (45.5, 45.75, etc).  Mine was fitted right at 45"

I have it at 45.25

I play a Ping G410 Plus at standard length, which is 45.75”. When I was fit for it, we did tinker with the idea of shortening it, but it didn’t help me find the sweetspot any better.

A poll would be nice for this topic. Mine is standard 45.5”.

PXG fit me to 43.5", X stiff and D4. It is good to get fit, especially for a driver I have come to realize. My irons are 1" short as well with X100s.

My current driver was originally 44.5”, but I snapped the shaft and the replacement Cobra sent was 1” longer. I didn’t notice any difference.

I’ll be doing a driver fitting soon, so not sure what I’ll end up with.

Depends on which Driver, I play. My ZX5 is 46", My Z785 is 45.5", My Nickent is 45", Alina's US Kids Driver is 36" but the clubs are actually too long for her right now she's 4' 1" has long arms like her dad, Alli's is 43.5"... I occasionally mess around with all of the Drivers previously listed, but namely the first two.

According to the internet my TaylorMade Dual R5 and Cleveland HiBore are at 45 inches.  Probably at the maximum length for me though a touch shorter would probably be ideal for ensuring I hit it straight everytime

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)

Ping G30 12 deg. with a 3 wood shaft = 43.5 inches. Works great for me.

Standard 45.75" on the Mav Max driver. I have thought about taking a 1/2-3/4" off of it but don't like to mess it up. Once off the shaft can never be put back on to satisfy me, psychologically. So, for about 20% of the time, I just choke down on the club a bit to accomplish the same thing.

Good point. We can always choke up a bit to play it shorter.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously?? 
    • I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
