I noticed a lot of comments on a couple of golf forums about the Bomb Tech Grenade driver after asking if anyone has ever hit it. Has anyone on this golf forum hit it, and if so, what are your comments on it.

Why?

So many good, prior editions drivers out there, why do you want to dick with something called "Bomb Tech Grenade?"

When you take it out of your bag, I'm sure a bird will shit all over it... or you will blow up over it... so I'd say

no.

Haha! That sounds familiar.

Desmond, are you just a golfer or are you also a clubmaker/clubfitter? I have been custom building golf clubs for over 15 years and never had a customer come back dissatisfied. You seem to have a problem which I can see in LBlack14's comment to you.

It's uncalled for. If you can't contribute meaningfully, don't contribute.

I don't have any direct experience with the Bomb Tech Grenade, but I've heard from one person who loves his.

In a time of war, I found the name offensive. I have nothing against components, but the name is ridiculous

Desmond, are you aware that a component company named Tour Swing has a driver head named the "XPLODE", so I guess you feel this is also a bad name too.

As Mr. Desmond clearly has nothing of value to add to this thread, he's been restricted from it. Sorry Lew. :)

Component companies are fine there is not some big secret to making good golf equipment its a piece of metal on the end of a stick. Jameson what do you think of yorus? Is this a long drive type driver like the Alphas and some of those other component makers?

"The expert golfer has maximum time to make minimal compensations. The poorer player has minimal time to make maximum compensations." - And no, I'm not Mac. Please do not PM me about it. I just think he is a crazy MFer and we could all use a little more crazy sometimes.

Hmmm, should be interesting.  It is an odd name ... that sort of makes me think of late night Golf Channel informercials, and also makes me think of Jack Hamm.  :)

On the other hand, I went and checked out the website, and it looks a lot like a green version of the Covert.

Can't wait to read your review!

Erik, I understand where Desmond is coming from since he has no club making or clubfitting experience. I never shoot anyone down for trying get info out on their new golf product. My impression is that he appears to be negative on most of his comments. Thanks for omitting him from this thread.

It's kind of backwards of the Covert. The Covert has the one cut-out in the middle, the Grenade has two of them in the corners. The review will have better pictures, but here's a quick one I took with my iPhone: [quote name="Phil McGleno" url="/t/68192/bomb-tech-grenade-driver#post_864402"]Component companies are fine there is not some big secret to making good golf equipment its a piece of metal on the end of a stick.

It does look a bit more simple than most of the OEM drivers, but it's not really a component head.

    • Day 12: stole about 10 minutes in the garage, doing my drill with foam balls. 
    • Day 116 12-6 Still working on getting to lead side. Tonight I also tried some skill work with clubface awareness.  Hit foam balls. 
    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
