Since reading Dr Bob's book earlier on this year, 2006, I am only using my Driver (10.5*) on Par 5's where I can reach them in two.

I played with a good friend a couple of weeks ago. He plays off 3. He was suggesting that I should use my driver on most holes (where permitting) and get it closer to the hole.

I value both opinions.

I get good distance with my three wood (13*) and I lack confidence with my driver. I'm working on fixing this problem with my driver.

What is your course management with regards to the use of the Driver?
hi nicole
i disagree with liberal use of the driver.
maybe its just me but the extra length of a driver shaft kills my accuracy.
at the moment my 3 ball are playing a long course the par 5''s are 500ys plus but are reachable in 2 with 3wood and hybrid!
weigh up consistent accuracy versus distance.
ita all about percentages
