Is this a thing anymore? I know baseball bats etc dont come out of the wrapper in peak performance but do drivers?

Or go to the range and hit a bucket to break it in?

Didn't even know this was ever a thing.

I can see taking it to the range to get a feel for it before bringing it to the course but what is there to break in?

Don't leave the head cover on it for too long at a time kinda like how you didn't want to burn in a plasma tv, same thing with drivers.

Definitely the way to break in a new driver. Think about how far dad could hit the ball right after he found out what happened to his new $600 yard driver. He would make Rory look like he can barely hit it.

Hit balls with it out of a sand trap. Thins the face and makes it hotter.

I had a brand new Vokey wedge that I'd won a a golf tournament, hadn't even hit it yet, sitting in the house. My mom is watching the kids and we get home and my oldest has running around the driveway dragging it all over the place....I was like "Uh, Mom...."
