Perfect Fit Between Td And Core Models

Coming from AI Smoke TD and looking to get a little more spin/launch/forgiveness. This did that perfectly

I bought this approximately two weeks ago and I have lowered my anywhere 5 to 8 strokes and it is very forgiving

My New Gamer!

Warning! Long review. First off, I started playing golf on a serious level from 2002-2008. Got down to a 7.5 handicap. TM Superquad 7 TP with a Graffaloy Epic stiff shaft was my Big Dog. I had a natural draw. My first year of driving was 267 carry with 297 roll out. Wanted more fairways so I slowed down my swing and started keeping it in the fairways more often, 237 carry with 267 roll out. I stopped playing in 2008. I took 24 years off and then came back in 2024. Years back I had my swing checked for at a fitting session for a custom set. Casual driver speed was 99 with a stomp on it speed of 104. That was in 2005 when I was 41 yo. In 2025 I came back. Started hitting 500 balls per week for 4 months (2 hybrid - lob wedge), no woods. My draw flight was still there until I hit my driver, fade fade fade! Although I knew better, I went through several different drivers and shafts, knowing I should of had my swing anaylized. Nevertheless, I purchased a Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond Max. I took out the stock shaft and tried a couple different Callaway Tipped shafts. The contact sounded muted and it still faded like most of my other drivers (I do know it's mostly my swing plain). So I moved onto some of my other drivers and shafts. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago, I was going to sell this driver with some others. I putt the stock shaft back in (Tensei 1k Black Stiff,). I thought, why not? So, I regripped it and decided to try it one more time. HOLY CRAP! I must have lucked out. Again, it's been 20 years since a fitting and I've just been experimenting with heads and shafts but I must have gotten lucky. My loft is 10.5, adapter at neutral and draw. My flight is medium plus and my draw is back! My carry has improved by 28-30 and my roll out is 252. That's compared to 215 carry and 230 roll out Fade. I'm ok with a 250+ Driver average at 61 years of age. I'm not breaking record distances but out of the last 40 swings/holes using the driver, I've missed the fairway 1 time. It still has a more of a muted sound and you sometimes you think you missed the sweet spot then you get to your ball and think, "Geez! I must have hit it better than I thought I did." My misses (on the club face) are normally just above center to slightly high toe side. If I do that with this driver/shaft, there's almost no difference in flight or overall distance. Today, I barely hit one on the toe side and it still had a draw flight and went 242. That's extreme forgiveness! I know I've hit a couple around 282-385. I believe I can get my average back up to 260-270 in time. It's a nice driver/shaft combo for me.

Great Fitting, Driver, And Price

I bought this on Callaway Preowned after a Callaway fitting. It was brand new still in the wrapper. it's nice to have a driver that is back to my old specs after 3 long years with a Taylormade Stealth and Qi10 "lofted up". I've had 8+ Callaway fittings and they always put me in the best spot. 9 degree dialed down to 8. Now with a lighter regular shaft. I love this driver

Excellent driver, great feel, easy to hit, I definitely picked up 10 yards off the tee.
