    Every time these mini drivers come back to the market we never get the niche market where they matter the most. Us shorter guys...Put this club in the hands of a 5'5-5'9 player see if it really changes anything for the people that really have issues with a 44+inch driver shaft. Sure we can cut our shafts down but a 44inch shaft with a driver head the size of a damn trashcan isn't really that appealing to look at. 460 looks like 500+ anymore they way they are shaping these things now days. I'd imagine the 11 degree in stiff turned down to about 10.5 would deliver some immaculate results for us shorter guys that create club head speed but a video showing it would be pretty sweet to have on the comparison

      Josh... for an average golfer, it seems the only option for gaming this club is if you got rid of your driver. You wouldn't replace your longest club (minus driver) ie. 5 wood or 3 wood because it would be harder to hit off the deck. So is it your sense this replaces drivers?

  • @rta1171
    @rta1171 3 месяца назад +4

    Mini driver shaft should 43.75 which is one inch longer than a standard 5 wood and 1/2” longer than a standard 3 wood. But you look pretty tall tall so maybe your 5 wood is 1” longer than standard.

    Nice video, been waiting for a review of this. What shaft do you have in it? And do you know if you can do custom fit for the shaft? Everything I've seen is Denali blue stiff and I could really do with x-stiff (driver swing speed is 115-118 on course)

    I'm glad you mentioned a 2-wood, because that is really what this is. You don't see 2-woods any longer but they used to be much more common. Sam Snead used one instead of a driver for awhile, and my father, a good golfer back in the 40's and 50's, always carried one. I have a 14 degree Taylormade "mini-driver." I've put away my 3-wood and use that instead. I can hit it off the turf 5 to 10 years further than my 3-wood, but it's still 20 yards shorter than my driver.

      Honestly, the mini driver feels different, in that the head weight and drag is different. If you went that route, the head would probably be lighter, and off the deck would be difficult, I use it as a 3 wood replacement. Still have a driver in the bag for the open par 5s and long 4s.

  • @johnklaus9111
    @johnklaus9111 3 месяца назад

    Having hit this driver and used a mini driver, I want to say a few things:
    1) the "Smoke" in the name comes from the feeling on a face strike. You cannot feel what part of the face you hit, no matter where nyou hit and what result you get.
    2) This is fine for very high handicaps who can't hit the ball but I would suggest they just should never hit a driver ever.
    3) better players using this club will see an erosion of center face contact. This could mess up your swing.
    Best of luck.😊
