I hit the FT-5 on the sim at Dick's. I really liked the feel,so I picked up a mint used one for $249 shipped from Global Golf. I have only played with it for 9 holes but really like it so far, and I have owned quite a few drivers the past year or so.

Side note, I picked up the FT 3 wood and really like that was well. Ball seems to explode off the clubface.

I've demoed the hyper x, ft-5, and ft-i. The Hyper X and FT-5 were similar in distance(long!). The FT-i was about 5-10 yards short of the others, but the ball carried straighter, and was more forgiving. I wouldn't venture to say one is better then the other, but I cant concentrate with that huge square head, so i vote FT-5.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
