Tee it high, let it fly!
The weather was a bit cool and damp for Central Florida and I was playing the Bridgestone B330 Tour ball.
I haven't hit the driver on the range at all and took it right out and played 18 last Saturday. The club came w/ a Fujikara tour S-70 shaft and I set the loft at 10.5'. It has a nice look to it at address and screams distance.
My swing speed w/ the driver is about 105mph. I hit some good drives w/ it and hit a couple of not so good ones, but the mis-hits went a good distance for not hitting the ball on the sweetspot. In my opinion, the Fujikara tour shaft really makes this club, and the ball has a mid-flight trajectory which I will have to get used to. I am comparing this driver to my Ping G10 w/ 10.5' of loft and a Diamana high kickpoint shaft. The face of the Exotics driver seems to be more stern than the Ping and has a good sound when struck well.
I believe I hit this driver a tad bit farther, but so far this club DOES NOT have that, "wow", factor I was hoping for. I am going to give this driver a few more rounds and hope she comes alive w/ maybe some better weather around the corner. I am quite sure the moisture in the air had some effect on the distance. I give the driver a score, from 1 to 10, an 8.
If this driver doesn't work out for me, I'm gonna use it as a sledgehammer......:act-up:
