Why not the 501s all the way for an integrated set? That is more similar to the MP-52 in terms of forgiveness with the notch -- and the 501s are pure cb's from 7-PW.

45, 50, 56, 60 The PW is a full swing club as is the 50. I use the 60 for most shots around the green, low or high, when I have a tight spot as the target. The 56 is used when I want to make sure I keep it low or want some roll out. Basically, the 56 and 60 are my 2 options around the greens.

The 1150 just has a stiffer tip - I also think it has more energy. I don't have a high ss, my preferred flex is somewhere between a Rifle 5.5 and S300. You won't have a problem with the 1150 Stiff. I have a Miura Gap Wedge in an 1150 Stiff. One of my favorite clubs and have now ordered clubs with the 1150 stiff. I think it plays between a 5.5 and 5.7 on a Rifle Scale. So it may be a tad softer than what you're accustomed to (the S300).

For all Avix users and interested parties, if you are on the cusp of a 6564 or 6568 (closer to 46 than 43 (45.7)) in speed on the Avix selector tool, is it better just to get the 6568 and not tip it or do the 6564 and tip?

Godzilla looks a little meek - could you place the pupil of his eye more towards the front of the face to make him look more ferocious. He looks like a sleepy Godzilla.

Thanks - it was 252 cpm before my current increase in speed. I'll discuss it with my clubmaker beforehand. Appreciate it.

Thanks, Ari. At what point would you try tipping the 6564 in a 9.5 SQ -- After some speed training and working on the ole flexibility, the SS Radar showed my SS to be consistently in the 101-102 range, going up to 105 with tempo at 1.25-1.3. I'm also interested in that Stulz - so gear it up, please, we need some reviews here (lol).

Thanks - from the posts, it seems the Axiv play a tad weaker. Having a 9.5 in an SQ, I wonder how the Axiv will do in the M launching shaft. I know Ari liked the dispersion but was wondering if it is still holding up. I was also wondering how it would compare to the 60g Rombax - since the Rombax is supposed to be stable for the bigger heads. Thanks for keeping up with this thread!

I looked at mine (again) last night at the range because of this question - it does not appear closed to me at all - now the tumor on the back may give you some help closing -- but this club wants to go straight so much or fade, that I'd have to say it's square. After reviewing a lot of discussion, industry people do say that the bigger headed drivers sometimes appear a tad closed - but they are not. I'd say square - it sure doesn't act closed. And my swing is constantly checked every couple of weeks by an instructor (swing overhaul).

Before I pull the trigger, I want to ask how these shafts play in the larger heads (is there a certain weight I should look for) and whether they play slightly weaker in flex. I did the selection choice and it says 6564M. I selected M based on the feedback that the L is very low kick (produces a fairly high flight) My SS is 97-101 in an SQ Max Stiff and 1.3 second tempo (if that makes sense).

I've seen pics here and elsewhere -- not impressed. Very angular and blocky design. Bett does a nice milling job but he doesn't have a Scotty touch when it comes to revamping old designs.

U. S. Rombax, according to Chip Usher, will be out next month. But it seems the Axiv is getting the better reviews here.

58.12 seems like a heckuva lot of bounce already - opening up usually adds to the bounce. So does laying it open with that unique sole keep the leading edge on the ground or add to the bounce?

That is lovely - any specs on a 56? Looking for a versatile SW.
