Golf Digest Report

The cover title of the November 2003 issue of Golf Digest is, "New Research: Easy Distance, More Loft Will Get You 10 More Yards." This issue is full of data that calls for more driver loft.

Golf Digest Chairman and Editor-in-Chief, Jerry Tarde says there is unanimous agreement among the Golf Digest Equipment Panel that...

  • "Everyone would gain distance if they used more loft." (page 16)

  • "...try a driver with more loft. It could change your life." Mike Stachura (page 115)

  • "...slower swingers can get more distance with a higher launch angle."(page 115)

  • "To achieve the optimum distance-producing trajectories, even tour players have gone to higher lofts." (page 115)

  • Based on robot testing by Golf Laboratories Inc., "For most golfers, adding loft to their drivers will add an average of at least 10 yards to their drives." (page 116)
