I only recently started playing again after not playing since I was at A&M. I still have the clubs that were given to me when I started by my uncle nearly 20 years ago which was a mixed set of woods and an iron set.

The driver I have is old, to the point where I cannot find any information about it online (in terms of brand or comparison)



I also struggle with hitting it accurately.

Just for kicks last week while we were at the range last week, I swung my wife's driver (an old Cobra AMP Cell-S) just goofing off and of course every ball I hit is right down the middle. Never hit a driver that consistently. I guess the main reason being the size of the club head and it being more forgiving? Granted it felt like the shaft was gonna break every time I swung it because of how much flex there was in the shaft. Definitely made me think about getting the men's version of that driver as I continue to learn. Would there be all the much of difference (outside of having a stiffer shaft) between the men's and women's club head?

I've been waiting to get fitted for clubs until I feel comfortable with where I'm at in the learning process, but it would cost less than $100 to get the men's version.

Amp-Cell is at least 10 years old and I don't believe it's adjustable.

You're going from a 290CC driver to 460CC head. Anything that came out last 5-7 years with adjustable 460CC head will be easier to smack than your Trans club. You're gonna have fun.

I played several Amp Cell (the generation before the Amp Cell-S) woods and hybrids for years. My current driver is an F-Max. I love it. Cobra makes some very good, underrated drivers and woods that are quite forgiving. But look for something more recent if you're shopping. Driver tech has changed a lot since the Amp Cell line. Even my 2017 F-Max is getting long in the tooth.

Don't forget about Senior Flex! Senior citizens discount. Lighter on the back. Wiser, lighter means longer! Or you can just sharpie the 5 to a 7 to make you feel better about yourself. Personally, I have a senior flex in my driver and it works just fine! Honestly, use whatever works for you. Don't be afraid to think outside the box
