My uncle gave me a four year old driver because he bought a new oneHe used it almost all the time whenever he went golfing(he goes golfing quite frequently)I used it for the first time today when i was golfing and i out drove my friends a couple of times and they own top of the line driversWill my driver ever stop losing it's power like an alluminum baseball bat would? Thanks guys!!!
Interesting question.Yes, driver can go deadThis depends on the material that made itMostly, the shaft will go first as lots of people said aboveIron get rustedI've seen so many times that old shaft broken in half mostly in the driving range, with one of them on the back swing and nearly hit meGraphite last ten years, so I was toldNot sure about these new technology ones, but I don't think they made things to last centuries these daysThe head of the driver these days although they made of titanium, they are spread out very thin and can be broken too after been hitting for a long time, esp with the people who loving driving rangeAt most you hit driver about 14 times in a round of golf, but you can hit 200 drives in a dayThe driver face thin out and brokenI've seen many of them alreadyThe third important thing is the connection between the shaft and the driver head (or iron head for that matter)They glue them together, and the glue can lose it's property and the whole thing separated from each other (I mean headshaft)Ok, most of those can be fixed, including changing shaft which is not expensive, but to change the head of driver is same as buying a new oneHope that helps at little.
