Tried out both the Sumo and the Sumo2 yesterday before my tourny with the same Aldila stiff shaft and hit them both very well! Will be purchasing one of these drivers soon but if I hit both well is it better to go with the SUMO2 becasue it still has the distance as well as a little more forgiving, or should I just get the SUMO and save some cash?

Driver - SQ SUMO2 9.5 stiff
3 Wood - SQ SUMO2 15* stiff
Hybrid SQ SUMO2 20* stiff
Irons - CCi steel stiff
Wedge - 56*Wedge - Knight 60*Putter - ITraxBall - platinum+Black but soon to be switching to pr0v1 SG 2.5

Yep, the regular shaped one is more workable, and the square one consistently gives a straight ball flight.

Whatever you want! When I fix this slice, I'm getting the 5000.
What I Play:

Driver: Sasquatch SUMO² 9.5º Stiff
Hybrid: HiBore 16º (3W replacement)
Irons: Staff Ci6 3-PW StiffWedges: Vokey Spin Milled 54.10 60.04Putter: Newport Studio Style 35"Ball: Pro V1xAge: 15

Yep when I used them I had the stiff flex on them and really didnt have any trouble controling the flight. I kept them stright, maybe a slight fade sometimes but nothing i was concerned about. The guy doing the demo said if you hit them both the same it would be an idea to get the SUMO2 then just because it id more forgiving on those bad days.... Forgiving is nice....no?

Yes, forgiving is very nice. If you want to be able to shape your shots though, get the 5000.

    • Day 45 (27 Dec 25) - played at one of the sisters courses to my home course.  Solid session through the bag….of the 7 pars, 4 were up and down 1 putts (wedges were dialed in) from 6’ or less.  Off the tee - solid, irons were consistent even it a bit under on distances.  Course management was on - stayed the course even with a few offline recovery shots required…
    • Day 453 - 2025-12-27 Two things today for about 48 balls (I like to hit three or six balls at a time before taking a small break to pick them up): Right leg stays flexed a bit, internal rotation on the backswing. Kept my eyes looking at the ball and trusted that the backswing was fine.
    • Day 137 12-27 Worked on wider backswing today and tried to remain flowy. Recorded face on and down the line. Swing is looking better but I mentally felt off today, just frustrated. Tomorrow's a new day!
    • Day 8 - 2025-12-27 45 minutes of short game work at local muni, mostly putting work. Trying to get lots of reps in with consistent quality tempo.
    • I guess I'll stay at -16 for this year's challenge.  I never birdied holes 7, 13 (the 2 hardest holes) in 2025.  Also had a couple Eagle putts on the par 5's, but didn't convert either time.  Looking forward to 2026, though!
