I can not hit the large 460cc drivers, I can not square the face. I started my search looking for something 300cc or smaller. I called a local shop that deals in a lot of used sticks. The guy said he just got in a Big Bertha warbird in good shape 50 bucks..LH is the key here chk it out..

I really hit the ball well, 230-240 long for me. It has a 2 degree hook face im sure that helped. I don't think that is the original shaft, what do you guys think ??

Sweet. I prefer a smaller driver head too, not that I can hit them worth a shit anyway. I have an old Cleveland launcher.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I think TaylorMade released a small-head driver a year or two ago. Have you looked into that one?

Callaway just did as well.

I've been gaming an old Titlesist 975J-VS which is 312cc and was one of the first Titleist drivers to feature a higher COR face. It seems to be the best of both worlds for me. Just large enough and enough tech for forgiveness and distance, but small enough to get that clubhead feel. With the Warbird I would think you're giving up too much tech just to have a small clubhead. $50 is also very steep for a Warbird, they run <$20 shipped on ebay.

I'm going to ebay and see if I can find that 975j-vs, thanks for the heads up

      PRGR Launch Monitor

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      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.
