I bought this driver just over a month ago and yesterday I noticed this nice little "chip" on the top of the club. I didn't "pop-up" a ball or anything of that nature. The club has never been dropped either. If it's not being swung it's in the bag with the head cover on. You think it's just a paint flaw? You can see the blemish in the pic below.

I look at painted cars every day, if you can feel the edge of the paint where it is chipped then it is not a flaw per say.  It may be a flaw with the durability in the way it was chipped though.  But a chip is as a flaw is not possible in the painting process.  If it does not have rough edge to it like a chip would then it very well could be a flaw.  Does it look like the paint is missing in the center of that spot or is it just discolored or something else?  Could it possibly be a particle that fell in the paint as it was drying as well?

I brought it to Golf Galaxy where I purchased it from and they replaced it. They agreed it wasn't a ball mark nor a dropped club, which I know 100% it was neither of these. I left with new replacement driver. Well there I did manage to have Super Stroke 5.0 installed on my putter :)

      Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing

      I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning.

      Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
