I had a fitting with a Cobra Rep at my club and tried all 3 variations at the start of this spring to replace a 20 year old driver. By the end of the hour-long session on the range it became clear that forgiveness outweighs distance gains on perfect shots. My swing speed could have worked with the X, but I ultimately went for the most forgiving Max. As someone who doesn't hit the ball super far, being able to confidently hit 230-260 off the tee without worrying about it being wildly off target is so crucial.

He’ll say the TM wasn’t forgiving enough no matter how well he hit it because that’s TMs stereotype. Rick is the kind of guy that would rather shoot 80 with blades than shot 69 with forgiving irons because his pride is too big.

With Rick he swings the club he likes better. Unfortunately he is never honest with himself, he needs game improvement irons, or perhaps forgiving CB’s and a max driver of some kind. With wedges, lots of bounce and use it, lastly use a spider putter, 70% of tour pros use one or an equivalent other name copy. But no he will use blades or `MB’s, Low spin driver, anser style putter, lastly low bounce wedges; most tour pros wouldn’t and are far better players

While changing the shaft is a nice component of changing a clubs feel, shaft does not change direction. It merely changes the movement of the head mid swing in a lateral pattern, any face alignment is still up to the user. Rick might hit it far different than someone else using a ventus black and even if he plays a shaft that's as stiff as a board he'll only lose clubhead speed. Shafts are whatever feels comfortable, fix the swing, not the club

I also HAD a left miss that got me in trouble. A few years ago I switched to midsized grips with an extra wrap on the lower half. The snap is gone and gained a few yards.

I think a swing lesson might sort most of your driver problems, much like the short game…get someone else’s eyes onto your swing might be the input you need…equipment to solve swings issues will only help short term

Maybe a combo video with Ross Walker/Elite Performance would be interesting. He seems to do a great job and his eventual head/shaft/weight combinations are always surprising. I just had a big revelation with a shaft change on my 5 wood. I do like your thinking and what you did here however.

Consistent fairways, slightly less distance (what , 10yards?), playing a little cut. You are all set Rick, playing to your store that were always there. Good luck Rick can’t wait to see the results on the next “Break 75”.

Just come from one of your old reviews of the Ping G400 which is the driver I still use and love. You were hitting that 6 year old Ping driver long and straight! Newer is not always better in my honest opinion.

I’ve started shooting my lowest scores ever, after I decided to get a driver set up for a fade and aiming down the left side and fading back to middle. Eliminating the 2 way miss has been key to me playing better

It's funny. I've been using the Callaway Paradym standard for 5 months or so. I have been driving better than I ever have. Keeping it in play, hitting tons more fairways, and getting it out past most of my buddies. And I got cocky, I was like, I'm driving it awesome maybe I found something in my swing. So I went for the triple diamond head, and although when I hit it, great I hit some crazy bomb drives. But my accuracy went down dramatically, trying to push it and add more distance. I'm back to my standard. Going to keep it for a while. Maybe I'll try the AI smoke version, but I'll wait until the new model comes out so it's cheaper 😉

Hi Rick, why don’t you get some aftermarket weights and get your favourite combination. I got the PXG head, with 2.5g weights in toe and heel and 5g at the back. I got the loft up to 11 and 1 degree upright. Over the winter I got my head speed up to 98mph, with 2500-3200 rpm spin and about 200-220m carry (220-240 yards carry). Can’t wait to see where I’m at when temps hit 25• C+. Should get me an extra 10-15m.

I'm playing the Ping G 425 Max with a heavier low spin shaft UST mamaya The LINQ gunmetal it's a beast easy to keep and play and the spin is not too high with the heavier low spin shaft and 9° head I know Rick use the game the g425 max because it was so forgiving

It could be the camera angle but it looks like your take away is slightly outside the line mate!!! Maybe look at a straighter take away as a really easy swing thought? Its what I’m working on myself, same issues as you with lack of consistency from the tee 👍👍👍

I love the Callaway Ai Smoke Max. But i am in the process of using the double trade in through Callaway to get the Ai Smoke tactical version. As a retired Army vet, i couldn't pass up getting it for $27 after trading in my Current Ai Smoke. Over the last 4 years i have built my set of clubs. Gen 6 PXG Irons 4-PW, Cleveland 50 and 56 wedges, Callaway Apex 2 Hybrid, Taylormade Stealth Titanium 3 wood, and this year the Callaway Ai Smoke Max, and a Odyssey White Hot OG Seven Mallet putter. Shouldn't need to buy any clubs for a LONG time. If i do it will be a 54 degree to cover the 100-115 between my 56 and 50 degree wedges.

Hello Rick. In lieu of seeing all of those drivers in your closet, I didn’t think it would hurt to ask for one. My brother’s girlfriend accidentaly snapped his RBZ stage 2 today. I will be lending him my GBB Epic until I find some money under the couch cushions for a new(ish) one. Keep up the great content! Cheers!

You should be playing the cobra 3-D printed irons if that’s an option. Your game is so much more solid when hitting a fade. The swing also looks much better. When I first started watching you you would primarily fade your drive. I would always think this guy never misses a fairway. Overtime you’ve switched to playing this hook and it just isn’t a good flight path for you.

To me, the GC Quad can help with look and feel, but the only real test is out on the golf course when/where you really need it. So, when you get "out there" - if it works, great, if it doesn't, time to pull another club off the shelf. BTW - others have recommend a fitting, my opinion is you have all the clubs and the facility you need to figure this out for yourself - just keep your ego (about your ability) out of the way!
