ALRIGHT!
I finally got to take this driver out for some on course testing, and as much as I was impressed from just range time, this thing has blown me away again. I play my course, and the same 6 hole loop when I am tight for time, numerous times per week. I must say I was learning a completely different game out there. I had shorter clubs into every hole, including the 560 yd par 5 of which I was pin high in 2. I also hit more fairways than I have for a long time. This thing is the absolute real deal. Its super easy to keep on plane--thanks to the weighting--and I seriously think this translates into your other clubs as well. I hit every club in my bag so well today and I attribute it all to the HD. I have never felt like I could overpower a golf course until today, which is truly saying something.
I shot a 38 for my 9 holes. I made some poor choices from yardages I was previously uncomfortable from. But it was a very sneaky round. I was just hummin along, par, par, par, bogey(par 3), par. I had a double on the other par 3. It made the game so easy and any fairway I missed(2 of them) was a tight miss. All were less than 3 yards. But with the accuracy of this thing, you dont only hit fairways, you hit the right spots in the fairway to give yourself some pretty fresh looks at birdies. I see maybe 10 yds loss off the heel and 20 off of the toe. That vs 20/heel and 40/toe with the R11. I can almost guarantee that with the right stiffness and degree combo-it will outperform any driver on the market, period.
This thing is CRAZY long, and CRAZY straight. Snap Hook can testify, as he shot -1 earlier, and Degoins freshly broke 80 too. I am positive that this driver contributed to such feats and I look forward to everyones accomplishments..
If this is not on your shortlist due to the brand name or whatever, it should be. Youre seriously doing yourself a disservice by looking past it. Give it a true chance and get fitted.
I am still madly inlove with the sound and feel. Its just so solid. Something I havent felt since the old Titleist 983k or 905R or R9 fairway woods. It sometimes sounds like an MLBer cracking a home run. The ball does not curve very much off of the face, so any of my misses have been flat pushes or flat pulls with minor english either way. Its going to take more than a laser guided fairway shotgun to remove this from my cold dead hands because with the sound it makes, paired with the feel, and confidence boosting accuracy, this thing is just flatout fun to hit. Go ahead, step up onto the teebox and swing your heart out. This thing will not let me miss a fairway by much. I would be scared to see belbsy or biggsy hit it. Theyd be locks for Morgan Cup sweeps with this in their hands.
Did I mention how much I love this driver? I want+want+want a white one so badly. Sure the headcover sucks, but Ill take the good with the bad for this big stick any day of the week.
