does having a small dent on the crown of my driver affect the performance??

i'm asking because i played last week and teed the ball up too high and hit it fat.

first time ive ever done that ( and yes i'm embarrassed)... i didnt try to hit it again during the round so i'm not sure if its actually damaged or not

An Auto dent repair man may be able to fix that. Just a thought. Might be worth a check.

I know the desire to get the dent out, but I wouldn't trust my driver to an auto body guy... no offense to anybody but if you are bent on getting it fixed, i'd send it into the mfg. Personally i would live with it as a reminder to focus. But that's just me.

I'm not talking about a hack. They have suction pullers that may or may not work. You could watch the guy do it. I wouldn't leave my club with anyone myself. Thats only if the dent really bothers the guy mentaly. Otherwise no big deal.....just play it. I had a dented driver years ago that I just couldn't hit well after I dented it. Gave it to a young kid on the range that needed one.

Keep it as a reminder never to do that again.

Nah, I know it's not cool to have a dent staring at you all the time. Can a club be easily pulled out as a car part?

      Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.

      I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on.

      I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.

      Day 128 12-18 Worked on rotation and getting to lead side. Still working on the flow feeling while doing that. Recorded swings.

      IMO-the only thing entertaining was the relay race. Everything else was excruciatingly boring...or just  stupid, like the 14-club thing. Watching guys blade wedges into the water over and over is not at all interesting.
