    I do not understand, why someone who don‘t know how to hit a draw, is using a driver in the first place. The advice should be: Don‘t use a Driver at all, because this club is the by far the most difficult club in your bag.

      Hardest to hit… you are joking right…. its the easiest to hit if you are using one fitted to you. The head is huge, impossible to miss. You cant hit it fat, shank it or anything. By far the easiest club to hit

      Hi, i have to express a different opinion.
      I think the 3 wood is the most difficult club in your bag.
