Hiding the truth

Hi all,

I know this is a strange post but I thought I'd bring it up because I have spent a little while contemplating it. Today 460cc is the biggest clubhead size a player can use under USPGA rules. I have been using a 365cc titleist 983k for a while but I decided to hit an old big bertha warbird(265cc or so?).

It is very daunting trying to hit a long drive with what feels like a tiny face. You have to be very accurate to hit a good shot. At first I struggled but given time I was putting draw shots out to 270. The club was telling me straight when I was hitting a good shot.

This has led to me being much better with my 983k as a side effect, but are all these large clubs hiding the truth from us. Shouldn't we be working harder on getting fundamentals correct with clubs that dont hide the truth from us. It may make golf even more painful during the bad times. Surely it is for our own good...


P.S. I would recommend small headed drivers for tuning a perfect swing on the range, it works for me.

Why not use a 3W?

I suppose you could make the same argument in favor of "blade" irons over cavity backs. When we say a jumbo-headed driver or cavity-back iron is more "forgiving," this would be a euphemism for more *deceiving*, since in principle both get you better shots than your swing deserves. Is that the general idea?

But isn't it still true that the player with better fundamentals will still get better results, even with these more forgiving/deceiving clubs? I suspect these clubs don't really conceal the truth of who has good fundamentals and who doesn't; they only make the results less awful for the one whose fundamentals aren't as good.
