It may be too early to say, but i may have achieved my goal already....by trying to hit it harder, i was overswinging....so i've gone to my short swing but have changed to a more in-to-out swing...had pretty good results recently hitting about 210-220m total distance and have eliminated the nasty fade/slice that was plaguing me ......i think maybe that's it for me for now....will be hanging up my clubs for a while......

Why GF!?

Let's golf!

Can't wait to see your new driver swing.
