Most of us are aware that golf is fast-becoming a power game with data like Strokes Gained proving the scoring benefits of hitting the ball longer for every level of golfer. Finding the right driver for you is a key ingredient to achieving this but there is some nuance to how to set up the other clubs in the top end of your bag too that can further improve your ability to shoot lower numbers.
Tradition dictates that the longest and lowest lofted club every golfer should use is a driver. The best drivers come in the maximum permitted volume of 460cc and usually in lofts ranging from 8-12°. Drivers also have the longest and lightest shafts, allowing golfers to swing them faster than any other club in the bag to achieve the most distance.
