When I swing drivers non-stop I can "self correct" my swing. When I get to the course my swing is my swing. I always know that in the back of my head when trying out clubs, that's why I wanted to get a moveable weight club so I can switch on the fly.
So when trying in the draw setting I was hooking them off of the planet, like 40 yards left. When in neutral setting I was mostly hitting baby fades.
I already had a plan when it arrived that it was likely going to be loft turned down and weight in draw setting. If I still wasn't able to get it to work I was going to get a lighter weight.
So tl:dr is that it's the indian and not the arrow or the chief (fitter).
Brings up a thing I always think about, the golfer or the club.
I don't think I could ever buy into a movable weight club to adjust, I think it would make me manufacture different swings to adjust to the various club settings and enable or force me to frankenstein my swing.
Driver is by far my most erratic club over the years and I am definitely an over the top/out to in swing. When in control I hit baby cuts, when not in control I sweep across and hit a high ballooning slice with an insane amount of spin and loss of distance. I like hitting cuts, it is definitely my preferred shape and I don't try to force a draw ever, really.
But with an adjustable club I feel like I would fall victim to tinkering if I was in a rut and trying to get the right setup for that moment, when in reality I'm just swinging poorly and need to work on an in to out swing.
Fwiw recently been focusing hard on an inside takeaway recently to improve the driver. I swing a Ping G400 Max 9* with HZRDUS 6.0 black shaft, 76g.
