It is one of the best sounding heads I have ever swung. I am not saying that they are the same, but just the sensation of “wow, this feels/sounds great” is the type of reaction I had when I first hit the PING G400 and they had really improved the acoustics.This one continues to be a TOWERING launcher for me, it’s hilarious at times. The bigger story though remains the way this controls spin on misses is just unlike anything else, ever.
It’s not the lowest spinner for me on center strikes, and that’s where I lose some decent distance, but the misses are most certainly more in play and longer.
Remains much lower spin than the Mav Max in the same loft and shaft setup, 400-500 rpm in fact, so that’s going to be a potential factor for some imo.
Also also, the ball speeds are there. They’re on par with the Mavrik and Mav Max that I have, and that’s something else that’s really impressed me.
Plus, that sound!
I also totally agree that if this goes head to head with a Sub Zero, SIM or standard SpeedZone on a launch monitor, it will be higher spin. However, for me, out on the course, where conditions are not perfect, it just works. I hit a lot of fairways with very good distance.
