now, i got myself a set of rams, because it was stiffer and i got a pretty aggressive swing.. (the dunlop feels too light). it's perfect and it's only $129.99!
however, i was hitting at the driving range for these couple days.. after about 40 balls on the driver, it started to DENT AGAIN! no cracks yet.. but i am sure it's going to fuck up soon.


is it me or the club? i gotta admit i swing pretty hard..
the dent is at the back of the club face.. you know.. the back part when you lie it on the ground..

and no i didn't drop it. give me some pointers! should i keep it and wait for it to break and go buy another driver, or just return it to sportschek again?

thanks guys!
You're lucky you got a refund after you dented your first driver. If you are hitting the ball with the face, there's no way it can dent on the back of the head -- it could maybe crack on the face. You must be doing something like dropping the club on the ground or topping the ball as mentioned.

Also, if you're just starting out I would suggest taking easier, more controlled swings for a while until you can consistently make good contact.
