Sldr Mini Driver.. wow..

[trackbikes]

I carry a RBZ driver and 3 wood plus RBZ 3 hybrid.  I've found recently that the 3 wood is my go to club from the tee.  Last week I just couldn't hit it straight. So I used my 3 hybrid to at least get the ball in play.

I actually nailed one to over 200 Mtrs (220 yards) which is well up from the normal 160-170 (180 ish Yards) I hit it. That got me thinking that maybe a newer hybrid would get me a bit more distance and do away with the nightmare that can be my driver!

On Friday I went shopping and bought a SLDR 3 Hybrid while I was in the shop I bought a SLDR Mini Driver on impulse.

I managed to hit a bucket of balls and both clubs seemed to be very good.. but I know from the past that what happens on the range isn't often repeated on the course.

9 AM yesterday morning I am stood on the Tee and and take out my Mini Driver to hit in anger for the first time..

Wow just wow..  Long and straight (well long for me!  225Mtrs (246 Yards.)

That was repeated hole after hole.. I think only 2 of the drives i hit with it were in the rough.. and I only lost 1 ball in the whole round and that was because i hit the ball longer with the SLDR 3 hybrid straight over the back of the green into a lake.

My goto club used to be my 3 hybrid It would get me out of all sorts of problems resulting from my Tee adventures.

I think I only used it 6 times yesterday.

The trouble now Is I am tempted to get a few more SLDR's maybe the driver and another hybrid... and some new irons.. ohhh damn here we go again!

Good to hear.  The prices should be dropping quite a bit on those clubs so it is a win win situation for you.

Amazon had it new for $99 for most of December.

Good News, and worth every cent..  unfortunately I am in Europe and the last time I bought anything from Amazon in the US I got hit with importation taxes and the clubs cost me a lot more than if I'd have bought them here!
