   I have built a lot of longer clubs for senior use on the course with considerable success. You don’t have an offering that works for this category, so I’d like to see one with specs similar to Golf Coast’s new KJ’s 460cc Beta Ti driver head that’s kind of an R7 without the screws, weighs 195 grams and a lie of 53°. The lie angle is much better for longer clubs or short players,compared with the 58° to 60° lies on most new 460 cc high MOI offerings. The only problem I have with this particular head is the 12° loft (though it’s listed at 10.5°). Longer clubs hit the ball higher, so I would prefer an actual 9° or 10° loft for my 47″ and 48″ drivers. For seniors who are losing distance, a longer driver can add 8 to 10 yards for every extra inch. Keeping the total weight to 290-295 grams makes the club as easy to hit as a shorter one. Learn to square up the face at impact and it’s just as accurate as a shorter driver, too.
