I am willing (very willing) to give up distance for more accuracy. At present, my handicap is 15.0 and I play 2-3 rounds a week. On days I don't play a round I usually hit the driving range. My drives, when they stay in the fairway, go 245-260 yds. I live in Arizona and play mostly desert courses which punishes you badly if you don't stay on the green stuff. I (more than I want) miss the fairway and the short green grass--maybe 2 or 3 times a round, and OB or in the desert once a round. My 'misses' are big pulls and pushes, no consistency. My 3 wood does pretty much the same. Using a 3 iron isn't the answer as it doesn't give the distance I need to hit greens in regulation.
Question is--could a higher lofted similar driver be the best answer? If so, what would you recommend. Thanks.
PS...yes, I have taken lessons recently. My instructor tells me I have a good pre-shot, set up and alingnment is OK and If I keep the right tempo I'll do fine. Well, I don't. Again, th
