I just bought this ... By: gracethedog48. on 19 Jul 10, 15:39:21 I just bought this club recently. I've only hit 1 bucket of balls at the range, and played my first round with it yesterday, and I love it! I'm not getting a big jump in the distance compared to my old driver, but I'm hitting it dead straight almost every time.....the distance will come. It's got a unique sound when hit in the sweet spot, but nothing terrible, like some of the things I've read on here. You will gather some attention when you start hitting it at the range, that's for sure.
His follow through ... By: Gyro911. on 15 Jul 10, 18:21:25 His follow through is wrong for swining a driver. He's coming off his front foot which is an iron swing
dont worry about ... By: cleanerimage4u. on 26 May 10, 00:30:25 dont worry about the vans... your swing looked 10xs better as the """"""local pro""""""""
Yeah, this driver ... By: W4lly16. on 12 Dec 09, 04:13:27 Yeah, this driver is so damn loud especially when you hit the ball hard. I just recently got one and it hurt my left ear; not to mention that i now hit balls out of the range. Everyone at the range was watching me hit, and one person was like, "That kid should be playing with the pros." This driver kicks ass!
They're not. I ... By: qbb01. on 04 Sep 09, 05:54:36 They're not. I thought they were a piece of crap and it turns out my friend bought one. I hit my usual 3 wood 230metres down the fairway but then i hit his driver and it went 250metre carry over the trees DEAD STRAIGHT. I couldn't believe it.
FTi is straight ... By: TheDet80. on 05 Aug 09, 12:42:23 FTi is straight with distance, FT5 is for the golfer who can shape it off the tee. If you aren't single figures, stay away from the Ft5 as you will be kidding yourself. Its built for the draw/fade guys. lets face it, all double figure handicappers want to do is smash it down the fairway, straight. so go FTi....FORE

Ft-5 hits a little ... By: christiancoker1. on 07 Jul 09, 17:29:26 Ft-5 hits a little farther, BUT: The Ft-i is one of the straightest hitters on the market, right below the Ft-iq. GET THE SQUARE!

if you need control ... By: GibsonLesPaul15. on 21 Dec 08, 00:24:12 if you need control more than distance than the ft i is better but if you are a better player than i would recommend the ft 5.i went and hit the ft i and the pro at the store told me that the ft i actually decreases your distance by about fifteen yards but if you're a high handicap it's worth it because the ball goes really straight.the ft i has a higher launch angle but the ft 5 goes plenty high. i have the ft 5 and i love it.the ft i is for high handicaps and the ft 5 is for lower handicaps

I played the FT-i ... By: bonezy09. on 27 Aug 08, 02:19:27 I played the FT-i today. My regular driver is a really old big bertha. I slice really really bad. When i hit the FT-I I didnt even slice(maybe once i didnt hit the fairway). The forgivness of this club is outstanding. I would recommend this club to everyone. even over the Sasquatch
Actually it does ... By: spateeight. on 14 Aug 08, 08:58:59 Actually it does sound good . A hell of alot better then the ft-i. I have a friend who changed his ft-i for a cobra.

dude i totally ... By: caveman4401. on 10 Aug 08, 00:10:29 dude i totally agree with you, i hate the sound of the new cobras. i was recently in the market for a new driver and i was down between the callaway ft-i 9 degree with a 65 gram graffaloy prolaunch red shaft, and then the cobra l4v x speed...i found the callaway much more maneuverable, more consistent, and farther. ended up getting the callaway :) but anyways, yeah, the sound of the cobras are awful.

My Schwinn Aerodyne ... By: DowntownCanon. on 24 Feb 10, 02:45:46 My Schwinn Aerodyne is my #1 tool to alleviate muscle spasms. My Teeter hangup is a close second.
The other day my pal and opponent "golf4birds" lost a ball. We never found it. I even video taped it.
After slowing the video down I found out where it went. Can you see it?
After trying to open my beer for a few minutes during tear down at the 2010 PGA Merchandise show, I enlist my pal Morten to open my beer for me. He has a special talent, Morten...
Yes, I've competed ... By: thebigunit017. on 17 Jun 10, 23:52:54 Yes, I've competed in World Long Drive Tour events and the Re/Max World Long Drive Championship the past 3 years. I'm a scratch golfer, so yes, I can putt. The Bridgestone driver is a very accurate driver, and gives adequate distance for the golf course. That ball flew to the opposing tee box side of the range approx at 352 yards. Although I play this driver in golf competition, I am playing another brand driver in long drive competition.
@thebigunit017 Do ... By: AMMrawCR. on 16 Jun 10, 22:59:20 @thebigunit017 Do you do LD events? How well can you putt? How far did you smash that one? And be honest is the Bridgestone driver actually good compared to competitors?
And yes, I can putt ... By: thebigunit017. on 22 Feb 10, 00:07:27 And yes, I can putt...
