Out of all the advice I have been given one thing has been constant, that I should stick to a fairway driver. My friend went ahead and traded me the QJLS. I'm liking it so far. My last question is if this works for me now, when do I go to a distance driver? I've heard people with distances ranging from 200-320 feet using discs like the wraith. Are they are just overconfident and ignorant or is there another mark for upgrading besides flat out distance?
When you get to the point where you throw the QJ well, but it doesn't have the distance to reach where you want, step up to a Sirius Orion LS (SOLS). It throws just like the QJLS, but with more distance potential. The Orion LS was designed as a max-distance JLS - same flight characteristics over longer distance. The rim on a SOLS isn't as huge as a Wraith... huge rims are for huge arms with big hands at the end.
I normally use QJ for every tee shot except the par 5s. Most par 4s are better with a well-placed QJ drive. Only the 5s need the kind of D a SOLS will give. And yes, those guys are idiots for throwing their Wraith so short. Wraith/SOLS are only for huuuuge shots. Otherwise, fairway driver.
