Taylor Made's marketing is spot on. Everybody wants more distance. No question about it. People buy new drivers in the hope of adding a few yards. I think it's meaningless to talk about accuracy percentages and all that, because any good player and even Tiger will tell you that it all comes down to the short game. The guys at the top of the leader board every week are getting up and down and making putts. All the shots inside 100 yards represent 65% of your score! At most you might hit 14 drives in a round, but many players hit 14 putts by the 6th or 7th hole. Forget about that new driver, buy a few wedges and a properly fit putter and practice with them!

    • LIV golf was pretty close to me in 2023, at the same course that hosted the 2023 Senior PGA.  I didn't go to either one.  I do know a few people who went to the LIV event, and they said it was pretty well attended and pretty well run.  If I had free tickets, I might show up, but I'd probably have to drive 10 miles to park to get a shuttle to come back to within 5 miles of my house.  
    • As long as "in town" means a drive of less than an hour, I'd probably go.  I've never actually been to a pro golf event, so it would be a novelty. Presumably, they'd be playing on a course that I'm not normally allowed to visit, so there would be an interest in just going to see the place. My tolerance for traffic is pretty minimal, so if massive headaches are predicted it would dampen my enthusiasm.    
    • I would definitely buy tickets and go watch a round or two.
