  Legends have earned theright to have a drive in the 290 to 300 yd range, for Legends only regardless of level. Some Legends don't play with lower tiers or levels because of difference in drive distance, why play someone who can be a tier of hack, level 90 when he can out drive you by 30 to 60 yds, and drive quite a few of the greens? and Legends can't?

  If I were you.... Get the R11 (s) driver.

  I would also think, a L90 Hack is not worth playing a game with and should be avoided at all costs.

  I play the game with just about anybody from any tier for fun.... doesn't worry me and hope I can teach them a few things too.

  L90 Hack's should be ashamed of themselves for not wanting to be promoted. Well L50 Hacks too maybe....lol

  It's kinda fun as well when you get the 'ooooohs' & 'aaaahhhhhs'  from these players.

  LOL  yep,   

   

  Plus, I enjoy playing against the lower tiers that have same clubs as I do.  Feels good to shoot better than them from the back tees lol.

   

  And I get quite the chuckle watching them run out of fw on their drives.  hehehe

  As someone who made Legend a few hours ago, I'd love to try it Roger. However, as I am level 90 and this club is now level 94, it's going to be a long time before I get a sniff of it. I guess that backs up what this post is about and I couldn't agree more.

  My reply was for the OP..... sorry.....lol

  Wgt changed the Level on that driver too,  from L90.

  For you G... The R11 Driver is quite good too.... L88 I think, not sure. 

  R11's are the best club....  The R11 (s) Driver and R11 (s) 3wood are great, but the normal R11's are quite good too.

  Most of them are sandbaggers with multi accounts. WGT needs to change the way they rank them so they would go up in tiers even if they don't play ranked games. A formula should be made for Blitz,AS games and all tournaments where the average doesn't get affected. These are where they hide out staying away from ranked games. In the end all the cheaters are only cheating themselves. Low lifes or rather NO LIFE.

  Im level 88, 89 by the end of this evening, i've got the level 83 G20 driver and 3 wood, but do think its unfair that the R11s has been moved to level 94 when you can play with guys that were able to purchase it when it was level 90.

  If it was available at 90, i'd be thinking one more month of me slogging my guts out, at 94, i'm thinking maybe the middle of next year

  not an even playing field IMO!!

  Nothing wrong with the L88 R11 ...IMO...I can live with 1 dot less forgiveness and 2 yds difference. Besides for Master & TM tiers the L80's G20's are quite suitable and most par 5's are reachable in two from those tees with that level driver and wood combo.

  LMAO... the reason it was moved to L94 was because E1 gripped like crazy because it was made available at L90 and too many lower tiers were able to get it. Heck it was moved 2 days before I hit L90. Your G20's are perfectly adequate  for your tier and one can do very well with them into Legend.

  The playing field can be leveled for the most part with knowledge of your equipment and your ability to use it well... Someone with a lessor distance driver but better ability with longer iron approach shots and putting can negate that driving distance difference in a heartbeat.
