Cool little update. Sounds like it's what you were looking for.
Very nice. I'm not a big fan of long shafted drivers.
What's the distance difference between the shorty and your regular gamer?

35 on the front. I would say this club is working fine

Looks even cooler with that new shaft in it

This thing was a machine today.
Wardy saw it first hand. Played a course where it would get used a lot and even pulled it on some holes I normally wouldnt. Nice high flight, super forgiving (he can share more on that) and a distance about 15-20 yards shorter than my driver.
FWIW, gave it a try off the deck for some fun on a extra ball on 17 and absolutely POUNDED it, which surprised me quite a bit. And no, its not something I would normally do.

This thread makes me want to put my old R9 supertri back in the bag as a second driver. It currently has 43.5" heavier shaft in it. I know I'm getting more distance out of the XR and I'm pretty consistent with it, but my R9 was a great club for me. I felt like I never missed a fairway with it. One thing that doesn't make it ideal is the 9 degree loft, but hearing these results really has me thinking.
I guess the other option is to turn my XR into a 2nd driver. I could turn that thing up to 12.5 degrees and pair it with a 43" shaft. That would allow me to put the 816 DD in the bag as the true big dog.

This thread is making me want to grab my old SLDR white (13*) and turn that into my 3 wood

hacking away everyday.
That club looks amazing with the shaft/grip combo!
At that point, i'd forget about the idea of the second driver and just throw that in the bag.

I still need that off the tee gap though.
