Draw vs. Nuetral driver

Thanks again.....very helpful information

Well I bought the taylor made draw driver convinced that it would cure my slice, the answer to that one was no but my slice turned into a slight fade overall was not worth the money you would be better investing in a few lessons instead.

Pressed the "quote" button and then realised that this is actually quite an old post. Never mind I'll say what I wanted to say anyhow just in case it helps the OP.

On Ben's advice I had two inches taken off my driver; it took a little getting used to but suddenly clicked and and my ball striking - in terms of closeness to the sweet spot - improved dramatically.

We'll ignore the fact that over the last few weeks I've developed a laser guided push and to be fair I'm pushing it an awful further ; seriously though I'd say that 47" is way too long for most tour pros let alone the average Joe./

The guy I went to brought the swingweight back to spec by pouring what I assume was something like lead filings down the shaft but that might not be necessary.

Hi there

I've only been playing for about a year, so probably not well qualified to comment. However, I had a terrible slice with my first driver, a Nike Ignite 410. I couldn't seem to get rid of the slice, no matter what I tried. I went out and bought a new driver, after trawling the web for lots of info. After trying a few out, I settled on a Cobra Speed LD Draw, thinking all my problems would be solved. Wrong!! I was still slicing my drives (and pulling my fast disappearing hair out!). I finally went for a lesson at one of my local courses, and that seems to have (almost) done the trick. I still slice the ball now and again, but have learned that it was my dodgy swing and not the driver that caused the slice. I have had my old Ignite out on the course, can now hit it ok (ish!).

Good luck!!
