I have been playing golf hardcore for about not quite a yr. Am down to the high 70s-mid 80's depending on putting day from the exec tees. The Covert has given me the option to play the tips. I started off with an older 10.5* snake eyes which carried 235 with a fade. Wifey got me a 10 degree Hippo from a garage sale. That one got me up in the 240 carry range with a fade. Last hole one day I hit my friends new Covert and hit an absolute pizz missle. 1 hit and I knew I had to have one. Got it for Father's day and started tinkering. Even at 9.5* I was still getting too much air time. (A problem with my other drivers). I dialed it down to 8.5* and the missles began to launch. I am now carrying 250+ and getting more roll. Last night I averaged all my drives and came up with 262. Had 300 wind assisted, and a 310 no wind help along with my normal 265-270s. 2 230s, 1 into the wind brought the average down. It is an absolute crusher. Haven't been playing long enough to make a comment on "forgiveness", but toe hits stay in the fairway. When I switched drivers I was hoping for 10-15 yds extra. I got 20+ with this thing and once figured out, it goes straight as an arrow. The red may not have been the best choice but I am fine with it. The stock shaft is a little long. I am 6'1" and I choke to halfway on the grip. This is the HAMMER.
