How far could you hit Tiger Woods’ famous driver from the 1997 Masters Tournament? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
I remember my first titanium drive was that Taylormade Burner with the bubble shaft. Then the next year was the Ti bubble 2 and I remember thinking how big the head seemed. Nowadays it’d be like a 3 wood. I had those bubble shaft irons too. Man I miss being like 20 and hitting the shit out of the ball so easily, now at 47 my back hurts just thinking about 18 holes 😂 😅😢
The OG king cobra was bad ass – if you had it or a big bertha, you were something
That wasnt even cutting edge when he used it as titanium drivers were already in use on tour in 1997.
I have a driver like that that il use once in a while for the fun of it
That was the "assistant pro"? I don't think so. 😂😅
I was still hitting Persimmon back in 97😢
You do know your losing a ton of yardage because these new balls are designed for the club face to compress as where the old balls were designed for a solid club face and lower compression balls.
The guess at 1.49… is all of us lol
Tiger Woods had incredible speed and strength in motion, freakish really. He used that same shaft for years in his driver and 3 wood, DG x100.
Golf balls today are not meant for that club. However, That Tiger was the best ever
This thumbnail tho 😂😂😂
Imagine if he was in his prime now.
The balls today are more forgiving than years ago
be interesting to see something around the same time as the driver
Are they using meters or yards?
130 club head speed at 21
I think every golfer in the earlier 2000's and earlier were miles ahead of current day golfers in there ability to hit the ball. Golf clubs are getting too forgiving
I used this driver playing college golf in the late 90s. I had mine set to Tiger's specs (X200 shaft, 43.75" long) and averaged 295yards with it. To me, it was the best sounding driver I've ever owned. I sold it years ago, but still have a backup thats nearly identical.
Cobra driver then to the Titleist 975 D Both with Dynamic gold steel shafts and 90 compression professional ball 🤦♂️😳
Tiger was swinging 130+mph on his driver. DGX100 130gram shaft and whoever knows the tipping. Plus the ball was way different as well.
You should’ve tried to track down that old Titleist PT 3wood. That thing was barely bigger than the ball.
That guy totally looks like a bud light drinker.
I’m pretty sure tigers driver had a bore-thru shaft. The retail ones didn’t
Was the driver the actual driver used, or did they match the specs? I remember Tiger played that driver head with a True Temper Dynamic Gold X100 shaft, 43.5" long? I also remember that he played the Titleist Professional that week.
I used this driver until I got the Taylor made Bubble. Greg Norman played the same Driver
“Pro”
