Driver head size


Over the weekend I went away with the mrs New Golf Irons, not thinking there would be a golf course where we were going I left the clubs at home. Sure enough Golf Equipment Show, upon arrival there was a small country course in pretty good nick. Anyway I couldn't help myself and ended up hiring some of their shoddy clubs just to get out and play 9.These clubs were old Free Discount Golf, and the woods were obviously not 460.Stepping up to the first tee I wasn't feeling very confident with this small headed driver in my hands but I had no one to impress. I found myself concentrating on hitting the sweet spot a lot harder and sure enough hit a perfect 250m draw straight down the middle. Sweet. Then I did it for the next 7 fairways. Interesting. I'm not usually a strong driver of the ball, but I found the smaller head aided my concentration massively and also seemed to make it easier to close the face through impact. At least in my mind. I've also noticed this with my 3 wood (bridgestone j33) compared to my driver (mizuno 560).Now I'm seriously considering scaling down on the driver head as an option.Anyone else had a similar experience? Also any recommendations for a smaller cc driver? =)Best: 77
