Driver's not generally my problem anyway.

Chipping killed my scores last year. During the league championship, I skipped two in a row across the green, then made a 20-foot downhiller for a 7.

Shot an 82, one over for my handicap, but felt like a hackmore with the guys I was playing with. Embarassing.

Driver's not my problem either, I get invited to play on scramble teams because of my driver.

Still yet, everyone wants just a little bit more.

I know someone will buy my taylormade R7 460 that I use now if I decide to let it go because it has a stiff shaft. I might keep it around for a back up since the weights in it will fit my new driver and allow me to tinker around some. Guys who I play with that I can outdrive their drivers with my 4 iron think they need a stiff shaft. According to all the sites I'm right on the edge between stiff and regular. I was going to get regular this time but the mint one they had available in the loft I wanted (9.5) had a stiff shaft so I got stiff.

I'm using regular in my irons and 3 wood, stiff in my 7 wood. Stiff in my 3 iron hybrid. No pattern I know, but the hybrid, 7 wood, and 3 wood I've had for awhile.

I've got a backlog of drivers and putters. I'll keep most of the putters. I'm not going to give my son any more golf equipment because he doesn't play more than 4 times a year. I gave him my old R7 425 quad. At 6'3 and 32 years old he probably generates as much clubhead speed while he's falling down backwards (which he does on almost every swing) as I do.

With the new baby I don't see him playing much golf now for sure. Only the freebie company scrambles that I threaten him to get in to.
