These have been covered in great detail before, so I will be brief.

I note that lately a lot of impact marks on driver show hits near top of the face. Impact seemed okay none-the-less.

Raising the tee height did not show significant difference, nor did lowering tee height.

Although I know that with today's 460cc drivers it is suggested your ball placement be more off lead toe rather than the instep,  I ended up placing ball opposite leading edge of lead foot or even a little beyond and was rewarded with very consistent and repeatable center face strikes. It felt strange, but the results were undeniable. The question is will this last?  Time will tell. (so will range time).

People who hit the top of their driver are often hitting down with the driver.

    • You all are right, its not that big of an issue, I'll leave it alone, especially after looking at that picture of Tigers beat up putter. But I also noticed the small circle worn on the sweet-spot where he hits it every time, I definitely don't have one of those. Thanks for the replies   
    • Committing to one brand of ball this year - Snell MTB Prime X, the 5 doz. pack. Like how they perform for me. At $18/doz., can live with cover scuffing. Iron regripping with GolfPrice MCC+4 Teams std. in red/navy. May be retiring Odyssey Dual Force after 30 yrs. Seems like I can't get it to the hole anymore. Kind of light and has lots of toe hang. My reg. group's hounding finally wore me down.    From Callaway preowned - trying out the Odyssey Tri-Hot 5K in double wide (less toe hang) and triple wide (face balanced). Both also noticeably heavier...we shall see.  
    • WOW, it looks like he has been hitting stones with that putter to put all of those nicks into it.  I can't see how a ball would cause many those dings.
    • I'm fighting a knee as well as a foot so I "Feel your pain".  Luckily for me the PT is helping at this time and I am hoping knee surgery is not imminent.  Best of luck to you.
