I want a driver so loud that the people on the putting green jump a little bit when I tee off on #1

A Nike Sumo Square driver will fit the bill.

Nowadays I definitely prefer a more muted sound like my sim max d, however I definitely have a soft spot for those drivers that sound loud, but a good loud.

I will say that I want it to feel lively coming off the face, that's the most important thing to me. If it has a decent sound to it combined with that feeling, that's just gravy.

I want to make ear drums bleed at a covered driving range.

Avatar is truth in advertising.... You're the guy that brings a brake'd AR to the indoor range too, right? It's a free country...

Anyway, I find myself apologizing---still---to anyone next to me when I'm practicing with the 425. The cotton balls help. Sort of. Still annoying. Did Ping just say 'screw it', when it came to adjusting the noise during prototype testing?

No that's actually painful for everyone even with protection, fun outdoors the 1 time I got to do that.

These days Ping since the 425 has sounded way better honestly. Was also at a golf show and hit or heard pretty much every new driver and nothing stood out bad.
