the sumo2 has a very loud ugly sound. it sounds like you hit it wrong evertime even though u bomb it straight down the fairway.

I don't care what the driver sounds like. I want to know which one is better for long, straight drives and will help my game the most. I'm a mid to high handicap golfer and i'm currently hitting a wilson firestick. I want to know which one is the best.

I was thinking getting the nike.

I'm gonna go hit it and see what it's like.

What do you think of the price?

Have you guys ever hit a wilson firestick? It's what i'm doing now and I find that if I really try to put some power behind my drives the ball flies inside out.

Well, if you like it but want it a bit cheaper - you can buy it off of ebay from the store "The Putterman". I did, it is NOT counterfeit, and I got it for $160 + ship.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By xrayvizhen · Posted

      To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
