I'll pile on..... I was on Ted's lesson tee, when he grabbed a random driver to hit a few. He smoothed a few into the next zipcode. He had a midlaunch trajectory, but the ball refused to fall out of the sky. It just carried and carried.

Some high speed stills I took of him indicated the driver was a flex or 2 soft for him. He had so much clubhead lag pressure, the head barely had time to get through the ball and I'm sure it was delofted. But he impacted the ball so hard, the spin gave the ball some lift and endless carry. He must leave the observer with their mouth hanging open when he uses his own driver.

Then I met one of Ted's students, who had taken just a handful of lessons from Ted. I believe Ted is going to do a Lesson Tee article around this student, so I won't steal any thunder. I'll just leave it to say, I chuckled as I watched his student hit a few. For a number of reasons, it was one of those "You have to be kidding me" chuckles. Ted is very, very, very good at what he does.
