Of course. But of the things any of us can just step up and change, effective distance remains primarily about clubhead speed. It is not complex; generate more clubhead speed and you'll hit it farther.
My point was that most of those desperate to hit it farther need to work on their golf swing. MOST (statistically) do not start their downswing with lower body and thus are swinging OTT and trying to manipulate the clubhead with timed hand action before impact. When they hit it farther, quite often it goes farther OB or into the woods.
For most amateurs, instead of spending $500 for a new driver, they should spend $50 for a lesson and learn a correct golf swing.
