Been playing consistently for about 5 years now and I always seem to be gripping down on my driver as it feels too long for me (5’9 male). Recently cut my driver from 45” to around 41” and I feel like it has made much more consistent and better ball striking with my driver. I have heard that having it that short would make me lose distance and is at the same length as a wood or even some hybrid lengths. Is there anything wrong with having a shorter than normal driver or should i learn to play a “standard” length?
