I have a slow swing speed but get good results with the HT senior flex, a friend my age can’t get the yardage I get from this driver even though he has a faster swing speed than me.
With this new TM I keep my swing speed consistent to what it was when I was fitted for this club. Instruction from a certified instructor is not just for those new to the game, no matter how well you are doing going in for a tune up evaluation will always help improve your game. The best solution besides getting some instruction is being properly fitted for clubs that work best for your specific swing and style. I’m sure that the Launcher is the better choice for some based on their swing and parameters. The mistake most of us make is thinking what works for one person will give you the same results. The TM HT is 13* so there has to be more to the extra distance than the 1* over the Launcher.
Those comparisons were done on two different fitting sessions at two different locations, and the results at the course were also the same. Same swing speed was producing an extra 15 to 20 yards vs the Launcher. Nothing came close to the positive results I got from the Launcher until I tried the new 2010 TM Superfast HT, Senior flex. The last Driver prior to purchasing this new TM Superfast was the 2010 Cleveland Launcher Grafalloy ProLaunch Blue 55,12* senior flex.

I have gone through several senior flex drivers with 12* to 13* lofts to gain back some of what I had lost. As I got older, and especially after shoulder surgery, my drives produced less distance.
