If you do not mind those other brands, the Acer Mantara XL Titanium Driver or the Acer Titanium Mantara from Hireko Golf (hirekogolf.com) is very similar to the Sumo and IMHO is quite outstanding. At $109 or so, it is hard to beat. And in addition you are buying the latest version, not an older version. The only significant problem with it is the "ping".

My only comment is there is a difference with the titanium heads. You can still make a mess of these drivers if your swing is bad. I saw a lot of hooks and slices during demo days even with the square headed drivers.

I guess that is adding to your decision tree.

Yes, but draw clubs make me want to cringe someone on my team has one, and i swear it's made his slice worse, i think it goes farther left to right then back to forward.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Went back to controlling my knees. That part was getting a bit sloppy when I worked on my backswing. Right hip didn't slide or gain internal rotation. I would just rotate back and around and the left knee would be in a bad spot. Really focusing now on keeping my left knee very stable and straighter in the backswing. I can't go back to the old pattern of overturning the hips. I was returning to my old pattern to time my downswing. Turn forever.  Left knee controls both knees and hips, acting as an anchor. Feel like it straightens a bit.   Hinge sooner and faster. Not in a way that sends the hands out and flips the club over. I still noticed when the hands get to A2.5, the hands would want to flip over and flatten the club out a ton.  Still trying to figure out how to roll the forearms a bit open and not just roll the club inside a ton.  Figure out the timing to get the hands down. Still getting a bit of right elbow collapsing in the downswing because the arms are too high when I turn. Everything is happening sooner now. If the hips are controlled, the backswing is shortened. Because it is shortened I don't know when to get the hands down and I just turn because the downswing is a go.  Very slow (50%) swings are decent.

      Day 207-12 Wider backswing and arm reconnecting in downswing. Did a much better job with proper wrist movements through downswing today.
