Anything seems possible with good marketing,
and the golf industry is the master at it.
We can sell anything that a golfer is led to
believe will improve their game. However in
most cases for as far back as I can remember,
the number one product that should be
the latest craze is still the range ball and a
lesson from your PGA Pro. I do think however,
we could see, and I would like to see
Drivers revert back to a smaller size. Personally
I can’t stand bigheaded drivers. Never did!! I feel better golfers
have much better control with a driver head that is smaller in size. I
will get arguments from the scientists in the lab, but out in the field I
see amplified movement and wind resistance because of the large
size causing more stray shots in all directions. Also if you look at the
wear pattern on a driver face from a player with a 15 Hcp or better, it
is usually no bigger than the size of a nickel. There are exceptions of
course, and they should have a bigheaded driver. Technology should
be able to produce a smaller driver head with as much punch as the
enormous heads we now see on the market.
