No.  You will not "gain distance" or "do better" just because a pro uses it.  The Tour TP drivers have a more opened clubface to promote more of a fade ball flight and have a stronger loft.  For a 16 handicap I would suggest a regular 10.5 driver.  If you have a slice a Tour TP driver will make it worse just get an adjustable regular driver.

Putter:  Classic Black Platinum 1

Driver:  R1 Stiff flex

3 Wood:  AMP - Regular flex, 15 degrees

3 Hybrid:  Baffler T-Rail - Regular flex, 19 degrees

Irons: :tmade: MC Forged - PW-4

Wedges: :cleve: 588 RTX 2.0 Tour Blade Black Satin - 52.10 and 58.10

Ball:  Pro V1x

My son has a 2012 Superfast 2.0 TP 8.5 loft driver with a RIP Phenom Regular flex shaft in it.  He murders a ball with it, usually hitting 220-250 yds with a mid-penetrating ball flight.   He's a 12 year old.  He has a high ballflight and we found that the TP with the 8.5 loft keeps the ball from ballooning on him.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 3 (5 Apr 25) - long day with setup and rehearsal for band’s church service gig tomorrow.  Got home to hit a very chippy wedges (from about 10ft to out to 40yds or so).  Focus was simple - feel the bounce and quiet hands.

      Mizuno JPX Forged vs Pro 245?

      By xrayvizhen ·

      While on vacation in Punta Cana a few weeks ago I played with rental clubs, Mizuno Pro 245's with KBS Tour Lite steel shafts. Surprisingly, I was blown away, not only by the distance, trajectory and dispersion I was getting but also about how soft and buttery they felt. It got me thinking.... IT'S TIME FOR NEW IRONS! Just yesterday, at my local Golf Galaxy, I tested them again side by side with the JPX Forged (recommended by the Mizuno rep who happened to be there) which also felt pretty good. Not as buttery soft as the 245's but they did produce slightly better numbers on off-center hits. Also, I haven't played with forged clubs with steel shafts in 10 years thinking I was getting too old and that I needed the lighter weight but these clubs with that shaft felt really, really good. So that's my long and drawn-out intro to my question: Does anyone here at TST play with either of these clubs and if so, what's your opinion?
