I played my first round of golf with the new driver this weekend. I played at Coyote Creek, a Jack Nicklaus course that (like most Nicklaus courses) is a great driving course. I hit the driver on almost every par 4 and par 5.
My average driving distance with my old driver was about 245 yards. I had it built when my swing speed was about 90-95mph and when I was fitted for my new driver I discovered that my swing speed has jumped to 100-105mph. The new driver has a stiffer and slightly longer shaft and an 80cc larger head (300 to 380).
After using it for one round in a 5-15 yard wind (it was mostly a hurting wind), my average driving distance was a whopping 270 yards! I had 2 drives of 290 yards and on the 18th I cut the corner just a little and carried a bunker 250 yards away.
This is an entirely new experience for me. I can finally swing my driver hard and keep it going in the right general direction. 😎
where is the comment on the golf course?
Follow the link on the name of the golf course my friend…
Hey Alex,
Very strange coincidence. I ran accross your tasks software for Mac OS X and have been playing around this morning getting MySql and PHP running so I can use the software. (not much luck so far)
After awhile I go to my favorite Usenet Newsgroup, rec.sport.golf, and was reading a thread on driver component heads where the SE 600 series got favorable comments. I search google for “Snake Eyes 600T” and this page was the top listing.
I live in Campbell and have played Coyote Creek a couple of times. I also have a swing speed of 105 mph. This is getting creepy! Anyway, drop me a line if you want to play a round sometime!

I moved to Denver now, a 105 mph swing speed goes a lot further out here.
