Thanks mate.
I accidentally sent that before I'd finished the post.
Was going to ask about the driver, I've read of some people cracking and denting them, seemingly through normal use. How common is that? I don't swing that hard, around the mid-high 80s mph, deliberately slowed it down to get better timing and control which has worked well.

Cheers

M5s occasionally crack, but I wouldn't think it's a high percentage. Especially not for mid 80s swing speed.

That's pretty much what I was thinking too. I'd imagine the club itself had been used a bit in the shop too, not a mark on it. Definitely impressed with the performance though, and looking forward to seeing how I go with it in a game. Cheers

Welcome!!

Drivers these days are incredibly thin compared to what you would’ve played 15 years ago, you do need to be somewhat careful with them. Mostly the crowns.

Thanks!Yes it will be well looked after. I still have my clubs from back then, they're still in decent enough condition. Just got sick of hitting drives into the trees all the time and with the technology these days I figured it was time to update the driver. Will probably do the same with the woods later in the year. Irons are going pretty straight and happy with the distance I get with them so I probably won't upgrade those for a while. Cheers
