Nelly Korda driver spec

[dfunckt]

Is this worth spending my points on? It has High recovery but I don't see how that is useful on a driver.

That spec has one of the highest Control numbers. That's what I look for in a spec. The more control a club has, the better.

The better your character the more accurate you'll be obviously. Power points cost more than anything else, so even though my guy is 99 OVR, my power is 2-3 points away from being maxed out.

For that reason I look for driver specs with max power over anything else. My 99 OVR guy can probably drive 290-300 without any specs, but that extra little 'umph' makes him hit 320-330 on average.

IMO control is more important for your short game. It's relatively easy to get on the green or close to it in this game. Pitch/chip shots and putting require a lot more points invested.

Only if you hit driver from rough. Maybe fairway to some extent also.

Or am I missing something. When you hit driving shots from tee it has no effect I would expect

You can see the difference in distance in the store. Its rather 2 then then 20 yards 90 vs say 70. As for control clever use of shotscaping can do way more then the power specs do.

The specs is mostly psychological but they do make some difference. The big ones are in the skill tree

There is a lot of different routes you can take. For me control is only important for driving and approach. Its only those shots I shotscape and need more spin to stop the ball

Its a relatively useless skill for short game where I have to much rather.

Recovery if you spend enough on accuracy you are seldom in the rough outside of around greens. And wedges rarely give huge penalties.

But just choose based on your play style what to focus on.
