===@osean79 - i guess i could be hitting the ground too, though would the club head fly into the air roughly following the ball flight onto the grass as mine did?? did that happen to you? I'm thinking that if I hit the ground before the ball, the ball would shoot up high and the driver head would scuff along the ground?

Also i wasn't really swinging "very, very hard", at least i didn't feel as though I was putting in anymore power.===


Graff, first I need to let you know that i was scared to swing a driver for quite a long time after breaking 2 of them. However, once i developed a feel for swinging the club, I never broke a club again. From what I remember, the first time i broke the driver, the head flew off and i only felt the shaft get lighter on my follow through swing. Second time it happened, which was a couple range session afterwards... I actually felt the head snap off. I believe when I hit the group the shaft was broken by the hosel but still connected to the head. On my follow through (a splite second after hitting the ground), the whip motion of the shaft going through probably broke off the head... which is where I felt the head snapping off and flying through the air!

In my Bag-Boy NXO Revolver cart bag:

    • Day 14:  I hit a bucket with my 7i and driver, didn’t hit my 7 well but my driver was good.  Played my first “real” 9 holes.  Sure, I had a few mulligans but I kept score.  Lost two balls in the water.  Had to chip from the edge of the water and did pretty good, just rolled too far past the hole.  Par was 33 and I wasn’t double but  I was closer to it than I would have liked.  I had a bogey on 9 so that ended it on a sweet note for me. 
    • Day 134 - Had a tournament today, played poorly. Same as yesterday where the driving was great, but the second shots were awful. Need to dial that in tomorrow so I don’t finish DFL. 
    • Day 313: range session. Worked on my feel for getting my hips more open/rotated at impact. Then did a stack session.
