Drivers are the most exciting club in the bag… but also the one surrounded by the most confusion.
In this episode of Your Golf Podcast by NCG, Tom Irwin is joined by PGA Pro Jack Backhouse to tackle the biggest myths golfers still believe about drivers — and why those misconceptions could be costing you serious distance and accuracy.
Together, Tom and Jack break down common misunderstandings around loft, spin, swing speed, and forgiveness, exploring why many amateurs are using driver setups that don’t actually suit their game.
The conversation also dives into myths surrounding shaft flex, adjustable driver settings, and whether buying the latest model really makes a difference compared to getting the right fit and learning what works for your swing.
