When I decided to resume my golf carer after about a 35 year hiatus I did a little research about which clubs to buy. I was advised to just buy a set of irons and maybe a three wood to start, drivers being more difficult to control. Certainly seemed like profoundly good advice since I struggle to control any of the clubs. Bought a used set of irons (3 or 4 years ago) and soon after a three wood. Since then I've focused on getting the balls to go down range rather then sideways or behind me - striking fellow golfers (there sure are some grouches out there).
Well, I think I've made enough progress to consider buying a driver. There are a bewildering assortment and now the manufacturers have come out with some rather unorthodox shapes and designs. Obviously these must have the secret elixir that will shave 40 strokes off my game, getting my score below a hundred.
So, my research has intensified and I think Callaway may have the club for me. Always liked a company that called their club "Big Bertha." Now they have a square headed club called the FT-i (not as catchy but not a deal breaker). The icing on this cake is that Callaway consulted BMW in developing the design. OMG, gotta have a club like that...there is just a little problem with the price, they sell for $625. Anyone got a used FT-i they'd sell me for $50?
