High hcp beginner golfer, new driver for medium clubhead speed (104mph) ?

I wonder if it makes a difference if you're irons and wedges are regular flex... and your driver is stiff flex? Coz that's me right there.

I would be extremely happy right now with 250.

I think you're not that far away from reaching 250, judging by your swing.

Thanks for the kind words.  But alas, my good drives during a round are still around 220.

Difference for what?  Wedge flex obviously will not affect driver distance.

edit:  I suppose if you had really different flexes, and got used to swinging one, it could make a difference when you swung the other????

This is pretty normal, but different people like different setups. You need to be properly fit if you want to really get the most out of every club.
