I've seen you say that exact same string of words on at least a few of Jamie's videos. I don't get why you're bragging about your "friend" why don't you go get some of your own achievements instead of saying some bullshit on youtube. You have to realize he's the long drive champion of the world, it is a big deal.

LDers have around 50 inch shafts

if not more

that helps get some extra yardage

and then flexibility and talent enables them to crush it 400+

I remember there being a guy in REMAX that was on the Natonwide Tour. They said that he struggled with other facets of his game at least at a pro level but because of his distance he was able to at least be somewhat of a touring pro but could never play on the PGA.

just because this guy hits the ball really far doesnt mean he can beat tiger woods and rory mcilroy, driving the golfball far doesnt win a golf touranment there is 2nd shots chips putts hazards and other things....

[kooziejr]

WOW this guy is better than tiger woods and mcilroy. Keep an eye on him will be seeing him in the pros someday soon!

@WestBromSte They compete with a 46" shaft, just like PGA players. Call Krank Golf and confirm.

[FullTimeHypocrite]

@WestBromSte 48 inch max

holy shit he took a swing at that. 418 is a Drive and a 5 iron for me

I could use this guy in my four man scramble this summer!!! It would not suck to start every par 4 or 5 off after a drive of about 380 yards, LOL!!!

all club heads are USGA conforming, there isn't a real equipment advantage, and shafts will snap long before the heads go out, it's wiser to buy more shaft/head combos then just using one head forever and having to replace the shaft anyways

[mtymk076]

when you have a more reinforced face, the ball doesn't rebound off as much because of less trampoline effect, im talking about a very small fraction of a difference, some of the guys that are backed by good sponsors are able to have like 20 clubs built that are lighter and have a less thick face, but they will break very easily. For the other 99% of the guys in this sport including me, use a head that is quite a bit thicker than lets say your callaways and taylormades etc.
