Do you prefer regular club heads or club heads with borethrough? (Driver, Fairway, Hybrid etc) Why?

I quite like the borethrough as it makes the club less hook biased.

The Titleist drivers that I used 945D and 983K had bore through, my current driver, Taylor Made R5 TP does not. I can't tell the difference myself.

I heard the bore through plays a little stiffer, maybe a club maker can comment.

ks8829,

If a shaft with a long 4 inch parallel tip section is used, the shaft will play as it would in a non bore through. However, if a shaft with less than a four inch tip secion is used, it will play significantly stiffer.

However, there are club making tricks such as blind boring which can be used to allow a shaft with less than four inch full parallel tip section to play as intended.

The biggest difference a bore through shaft provides is feel.

    • Yep. It’s easy to get distracted during the day and hardly drink any water. Our bodies do not have a good systems to warn us early enough. Some tips I like. Drink 16+ ounces of water when you wake up. The body can lose 1-2 lbs of water weight overnight. You are already in the red. If you know you are going to work out, or even walking 9 holes of golf. Drink water before hand and during the exertion. I was curious once, I did a 40 ish minute workout and I lost about 5 lbs of water weight. That is 80 ounces of water I need to replenish. Now I try to drink 24-36 ounces beforehand.  Aim for half an ounce of fluid, per pound of bodyweight, per day. Note, this is baseline not taking into account exercise or strenuous activity. Also, if you eat non processed foods, you can get a good amount through diet. If you eat processed foods, you need to drink more during the day.
    • Anyone in the group play tennis and interested in playing some tennis this weekend while we are away on recreation?  @StuM I messaged you about hotel accommodations please let me know what you can do.
    • That's kind of what I thought.  The ap maybe fine, but Shotscope is so inexpensive and works really well. I'm surprised more golfers don't use it. 
    • Me too. I tend to drink no less than 64 oz in the winter time. In the summer at least twice that.  I'm prone to cramping and cramping sucks. So, I drink plenty of water. BTW - I've become increasingly prone to cramping as I've aged. Aging sucks also.    Huh?  I'd love to know where you got this information. Did you ask your dog?  I'm not sure if I like or dislike the taste of water. It's water. It's one of the things that makes life on Earth possible. 
    • It doesn't, though, and cognitive decline begins pretty early when water/dehydration are concerned.
