Your old Bertha compared to a new Mizzy is like comparing apples to oranges. Different shafts play a huge role in drivers.
Tom Wishon, one of the pioneers of club fitting recomends drivers be 43-44 inches. This guy is not stupid either!
One inch off your driver will not cause much lose in distance and this has been proved by swing machines that hit it perfect every time.
5 yards less and in the short grass beats 5 yards longer and being in the hay! |
I cut 1" off my FTi, and it has improved my consistency. My swing still comes and goes, but at least I seem to strike the ball closer to the center now than I was with the stock 45" shaft. It really didn't change the feel of the club that much, and if it had, it's easy enough to add some lead tape to the clubhead to bring it back to the original specs.
