The only depth I noticed with the 17" coil was the depth of the pain in my elbow & shoulder. I went back to the stock coil I could swing all day long.

Maybe an inch extra in depth at the most. The added coverage is worth it to me. Use a sling if needed......I do.

It’s not just about ultimate depth- but the width of the deep part gets wider as well. You have more chance of finding something deeper in the same swing.
