    Question Driver - TM R5 "Draw"

    When I first got this driver in 2005 I was slicing... a lot, but I had not played much up until that time. With a little instruction and practice I have almost eliminated my slice (off the tee), and now have a draw, on a good shot, but too often a pull (I know that's not the club's fault).

    So, My question is... Should I now move to a "straight" or "neutral" driver? I do occasionally (4/10) hit a nice straight drive of 220+ yds which is good for me and I'm happy with that. I'm thinking that I can buy a better game, as the "draw" got me out of the slice but now I'd like to play a little more down the centre.

    Thoughts? Thanks!

    Very similar to myself , had the R5 D also (great club btw) , i then upgraded to an R7 with a heavy draw set up .
    Then this season , with a few swing adjustments , found myself "hooking" most of my drives instead of drawing them .
    I reset the R7 to a neutral position , and i'm now popping the drives straight down the middle .
    So my answer would be , yes , you should probably look at a neutral set-up
    At the end of the day ... It gets dark
