Who here is playing the longest length driver?

With all this talk about Bryson trying a 48in driver. I was wondering who here plays a driver that is longer than 45in.

I am at 45.5 cut

dphatt I'm no stranger to a 46" driver but I'm tall so it feels normal. #proportional

mljones99 how tall are you? Specs?

mljones99

dphatt 6'6". I actually just came across my Club Champion fitting specs and they have me in a 45.5" driver. Looking at the rest of the specs they are about .5" shorter on everything than what I typically play. No wonder my wedges feel short....

I need to try that @bigjohntripod one length wedge set-up and make everything below PW the same length as my PW. If anything it would help with back pain from hunching over.

I've always been between 44.25" and 44.75". I am thinking about going to 45.25", though.

mljones99 broooooo I love the setup. They explained it this way, “you can always choke down”. I was like, fucking sold.

I'm at 45.5". I'm tall as well, but have never dabbled in the 46"+ range. I know many times with playing partners I will try someone's driver and I immediately know if it is cut down as it always feels like I'm more hunched over when swinging anything shorter than 45" or so.

Played 44.5" EOG for the last probably 10+ years and going to try 45" in my TSi3
So i am probably still ont he shorter end, find its easier for me to keep the loft down and not hit like 6-7 up on the ball when its shorter.

MatthewASim what’s wrong with a launch angle of 17 degrees and a spin of 1700? 🤣

dphatt ROCKETBALLZ!!

I play 44.5”. No intentions of going longer.

dphatt nothing but 17/3400 isn’t so great.

I got paired up with a professional long drive competitor (Aaron Hoffman) today at Pinehurst. He was playing a 48” Krank driver with 2* of loft. I’ve never seen anything like it. The ball speed in person was fascinating!! My dad, son, and I were mesmerized by it all day.
