More Thoughts on the 910D2

Now I've played a few rounds with it my opinion still stands.

The D2 is easier to hit than my R9 and it is longer. Dave, who i play with on Sunday, said he noticed I was geting at least 20-30 yards extra out of it.

The distance improvement is much more noticable into the wind as well. Whilst the ball seems to fly quite high it doesn't seem to 'hang' up there and just drop, it stays high and carries forward. And that measn more run out on landing.

My R9 used to land quite soft, fly high-ish but hold up into the wind. then just drop and stop,

I actually feel because of how forgiving this driver is I could probably hit it harder than I am. Over the past month I have deliberatly slowed down my driver swing to gain some control. But I feel that I could speed it up again at the loss of only a little accuracy, but get some extra yardage out of it.

Something to try.

After Fridays 9 holes, I was fading slightly with it. So I adjusted it to a slightly closed face. And tbh I didn't really notice a difference in ball flight. The other thing I might try as well is reduce the loft to get a lower flight. I can adjust it down by .75 degrees to a 9.75.

Again, something to try this week.

Next comp isn't until the 17th April, so have a bit of time to experiment.
