Yes, I know the Supertri is ancient in Taylormade terms...

But I've been playing one I picked up cheaply and am considering some adjustments.

Before I go to the range and waste an hour pounding balls I thought I would ask for suggestions.

I currently play the 10.5 supertri 1 click closed.... .5* closed  loft of 11*  I believe.

I currently play the weights 10heel  2center  1 toe  ( removed but still own 16gram weight)

My problem... I just do not get a lot of kick from the Reg Blur shaft...

I would like to get another 10 yards out of the club....

Plan A

I am considering moving the 10 (or 16) to the center position putting 2 in the heel...

BUT at the same time I will click the club to the most closed position 1 degree closed 11.5 loft.

Is the closed position going to have more influence than just moving weights to heel?

Plan B

Stay with my current 1 click closed setting but put the 16gram weight back in the heel...

Would the added weight make the regular shaft a bit more lively ??

Right now I rarely get that great lag feeling from the shaft... Maybe 10g is too light?

Thought I would like the Supertri but right now I'm struggling with TOO many choices...

My trusty Tour Edge Exotics had some tip damage and the shop trimmed the tip an inch...

Put an inch back at the butt end of the club and said I wouldn't notice...

Put a Boccieri weighted grip on it...

Club changed.... feels dead, no shaft kick....

Not sure if it is the tip trim or the weighted Boccieri grip...

BTW

My PLAN C will be to replace grip on Tour Edge and abandon the Supertri completely!

Whole mess has been a nightmare...

Took a 10 handicap to a 12, now to a 14 in just over a month!

Driver :T Edge CB-1 or Cally Mini Driver 14* or GBB 11*

Not sure adding to the loft is going to help add distance. Depending on your swing you may benefit more from opening the face and reducing loft some and moving some of the weight to the toe if you are trying to keep a draw bias on the club.
