So I think Im gonna buy an r7 driver, they have some good prices around town on them.

Does anyone have one of the draw versions of the driver? If so is the club noticeably closed at address?? I dont like a closed face at address, and wondering if thats how the r7 draw is?

Thanks a lot!

I have a burner draw and it is definitely has a closed face at address so I'd imagine a R7 driver would as well.

If I'm not mistaken, even the R7 neutral will have a closed face. I believe it's .5*. I could be wrong, but I know my superquad had a closed face. I don't know you swing or anything but I feel like the draw driver may be a bit much. It might be a better idea to get a lesson or two to work on the swing path. I think you'll benefit more in the long run. That being said, hit what works for you.

OK, thats what I have now, I have a knockoff FT-I driver, and its a pretty closed face at address, I dont really like it, and I tend to hit it left when I hit it "square", and when I leave the face "open" (which ends up being square) it goes straight, but I'd say thats only 50% of the time....

I dunno If I should get the R7, the draw, or keep the one I have.... Cool guy that built me the club, said hell give me my money back, so I can use that toward a new club.... The r7 has a .5* closed face you say??

Maybe thats the club then, I just dont know..... I can only find the R7 regular right now around town..

    • Day 35 (15 Dec 25) - Short session today focused on exaggerated weight shift using left heel trigger.  Hit a few pitches using the process to help capture the feel. 
    • Day 125 12-15 Half swings with flow drill. Focused on rhythm, loading trail side then getting to lead side correctly. Hit a few foam balls but mostly drilling without ball. 
    • Never practiced golf when I was young and the only lesson ever taken was a driver lesson. I feel like I'm improving every year. However, the numbers don't support my feeling about improving. I usually drop to 12-13 during the summer while playing the familiar courses around home and then go on golf trips in the fall to new courses and increase to end the year between 15-17. Been a similar story for a number of years now but hey, it's the best thing there is in life so not too bothered but reaching 9.9 is the objective every year. Maybe a few lessons and practice could help me achieve it since I pretty much have no idea what I'm doing, just playing and never practice.
    • I am semi-loyal. Usually buy four dozen of one ball and only play that until out and then determine whether to continue or try another one. Since starting my semi-loyal path to success, I've been playing the below, not in order: ProV1 ProV1x ProV1x left dash AVX Bridgestone BXS Srixon Z-star XV I am not sure if it has helped anything, but it gives a bit of confidence knowing that it at least is not the ball (while using the same one) that gives different results so one thing less to mind about I guess. On the level that I am, not sure whether it makes much difference but will continue since I have to play something so might as well go with the same ball for a number of rounds. Edit: favorite is probably the BXS followed by ProV1/Srixon Z-star XV. Haven't got any numbers to back it up but just by feel.  
    • Will not do it by myself, going to the pro shop I usually use after Cristmas for input and actually doing the changes, if any, but wanted to get some thoughts on whether this was worthwhile out of curiosity.
