The Speeder is a great shaft. I look forward to seeing this in action next weekend.
This has me very excited! I just mentioned to Phil while we are at the range the other day and I felt the SLDR for the first time that it felt lighter and more aerodynamic compared to my r11s and that I would love to get my hands on an Optiforce to compare the two because all I've heard is how sick that thing isWe'll have an Optiforce and a SLDR. I am anxious to see what everything thinks between the two. Should be interesting.
This is my first time gaming one. Heck it's my first time gaming a tp driver. Maybe it's what I've been missing off the tee
I believe all the difference regarding "TP" is in the shaft.
45.25 in the Fujikura Motore Speeder TS (tour spec) 6.3 which weighs 65g with 2.7 torque (although Fujikura site says 3.4 and offers low spin, mid launch).
45.5 inches in the Fujikura Speeder 57 at 58g, 3.4 torque. Not really sure what aligns with that shaft on Fuji's site, but I would guess it's more like mid spin mid launch based on their weighting breakdowns of non TS speeders.
Loving the Motore!Well I guess so far I'm the minority. I feel like the stock tp shaft is right for me. I will take it to a fitting and go through that whole process but I'm not in a hurry to replace the Speeder
This is going to be a real interesting review thread. Seems like everyone has a different take on this club
I see it kinda differently, I think it doesn't matter what is on the end of the club when comparing swing speeds etc. what matters is the shaft. The head itself can benefit everyone equally.I actually think that is a great thing.
In an ideal world, sure, a company would make a driver that fit the needs of the guy who swings 115mph and looks to move the ball on demand and the guy who swings 90 and wants it to go dead straight eevry time as they hit it from toe to hosel. Realistically, that clubs doesn't exist. One of the things that makes product testing by forum users so great and so useful is the fact that we don't feel like we have to sugar coat anything. If the club(s) is the cure to all your ails, fantastic, if it is the source of every bad shot, let's hear that too. Either way there are very constructive ways to describe both initial and ongoing thoughts with these, and you all have started those discussions very nicely.

That's an interesting assessment, but I tend to disagree. I'm a high spin player, and have had MUCH better success with lower spinning heads regardless of the shafts I utilize.

I will agree that a shaft can make a bigger difference than a head, but the spin and weighting characteristics of the head may not be ideal for what individuals look for. As an example, for me, the ideal would be a lowish spinning head that provided good forgiveness across the entire face since my swing isn't consistant enough to hit the same spot on the face every time. If I was playing a higher spinning head, with a small sweet spot, I may be able to pair a shaft that brings the spin down some, but a shaft for me can't fix the sweet spot. As a different thought on head design, the driver I was playing this weekend (which shall remain nameless since it is irrelevant to the SLDR testing) has internal, fixed waiting to promote a draw. That may be great for people who slice the ball, or for someone who wants to hit it with a small draw, but it sucked for me when I was pulling the ball off the face of the planet.
Again, I don't view it as a bad thing, but I know I have played the same shaft now in six different heads, and gotten six different results...only one of which was any good for me.
where did you see the difference? rollout? dispersion?
I see a prominent Callaway staffer is rocking a SLDR in the Presidents Cup. Maybe with the right shaft this thing could give me a bit more than my G25.
