xxio 2010 driver
Gents..., i need to get a retirement present for somone whos off to play golf for , well ever hopefully. hes 65 in good shape but not an athletic guy. THIS is what im thinking..............., i was at an indoor simulator driving range recently with some custies(. lord knows how much these things cost but id say a grillion buzzillion trillion goolge would be somwhere close to the mark.),they have moevable platforms for lies, a plethora of the latest and greatest equipment, play any course on the planet. shoes, gloves, all serviced by the most beautiful kawaii J-pop idols as hostesses in preopsterously short pink flowery skirts, pig tailed hair and gigantic mahoooosive dragon tattoos down their necks and backs, ................. , beer , sake ,sho-chu, chu hi , whiskey a plenty, fantastic food.here to say this simulator makes tiger woods golf on PS look like 'atari pong" club-wise , they dont have much at all in stiff flex bec the majority of the clientelle are prob the folk that get johhnie shacho nissan president cars to the diet bldg every day ,and decide the policy of this island. so S clubs arnt plentifull. luckily i found one, the XXIO 2010 driver. this driver had my attention . is probably the easiest simplest thing i think ive ever hit.! the shape is a hooooooooooooge rounded sleek elongated gigantic face , it didnt seem to matter where i hit it the ball on the face it felt good its light as a feather it had the stock mumbler shaft in it that felt as stiff as a stick of spagetti (after cooking!! ) and deliverd a shot ive been searching for with my drivers for a yr, allbeit a thousand time higher than id like but an arcing draw on every shot. . i am thinking of this as the present so he can enjoy his retirement and play golf with a really great driver. id thought about it but beore i jump in i need some real world advice from guys that play this style club regularly. of all the easy to hit , more relaxed style drivers ive hit ,i think this is close to the best . onoff red, srixon z star, yamaha d superlong, these spring to mind, im not sure if many guys have tried this, or if its popular , but if your not a 270 darn the pipes guy and just need to hit a nice driver this MUST be up there. no ? gents, does this sound about right..? anything esle i need to look at?

Yet more advice for an Epon AF 101 user
i just had a thought back to the other nights driver session. i have my black 101 with a 75s quadra and its a lot higher than the crazys and yamaha. i was hitting it considerably higher, its a more soaring flight with that head i found. skip u use x right , i havnt hit an x in quadra but the xs is DEF tighter than the s the 75s is prob a flex to soft for me. hence i was getting more lift compared to the yamaha and the crazies. the tighness is NEVER in question with quadra, but i found the S flex is def a higher shot, and def higher than the 102 and my others. another good one , is GD di 7 ,thats got a decent midish flight to it.

AF 202 or New Egg Spoon ???
the main diffs are , the sound, that "ting" has gone replaced by a more "normal" swoosh. its more aerodynamic and i think its slightly higher launching a bit easier to get to land softly. the feel is a bit more muted, distance wise, im pretty sure the old one is longer . i think the new one is better of the fairway than the old one . easier to pick clean the old one DEF better from a tee. is it better over all? , hmmmmmm im not 100% convinced it is. i love it i MUST have one available at all times esp in japan! either one is good tho , it depends on what i need to do and which course. im gonig to actually go the new 17* route. for a more fairway wood shot rather than a spoon shot. the roy colls and my yamaha , i just hit too well form a tee. im palying a lot more 3 woods of tees these days. and i prefer the traditional shapes better.form a tee if i had to have just one egg and no rmore, id take the NEW 17* and play it with the crazy 80 fw. after hitting a million of them last yr. thats my optimal egg.

AF 202 or New Egg Spoon ???

Any Nippon Iron shaft experts?
the 1050 are awsome! mine are an x flex i only learnd 2 nights ago after hitting all my shafts these are just too light but the feel? just perfectamundo can not recomend these enough. i had mine sst pured and put them in my zone sprout irons, that is one hell of a combo. JUST i prefer the heavier shafts now of the SP blue. the step up to 1050 from 950 will be fine , ull get a tighter dispersion and a more stingy kick, flight is still high but they dont loose it and as i said yesterday the bad shot dispersion is vey good. i went to the SP to bring my flight down and slow my tempo, both haveworked very well. i hit my 7 short of 170 , 9 iron goes just short of 150. an the 1050 were spot on the money with these distannces.

Yet more advice for an Epon AF 101 user
i was going to say quadra as well. but the lowness of it balked me. tightness and dispersion is unquestionable. the 9003 def is higher than the quadra and tightness throw a blanket over them . the quadra feels a lot BETTER but its a diff price point. if ur after a sliightly higher launch with softer feeling slower ss flex roddio m6 or m7 seriosly good . 'i have a s6X in oz and i was impressedby it in the wind not many people know about roddio i can assure you they are top end! but for you if yr worreid about the 9003 x then the quadra65 sx or 75 s as good as there3 is

Grips, Grips, Grips
i have had the gripmastes on my kyoeis for a few weeks, lordy lord they are the tackiest things ever. make super glue look like a bar of soap!. they are really think tho. really really think. gonna swap them back to the pefect pro cords for this set. if i use chunky irons like the epon 302s then these wil suit them beautifully,im thinking if i use thin baldes then the thinner grips suit me better. the epon 30s and the x evols blues (thin) arnt the best match. but the grip master might be terrifico.

AF 202 or New Egg Spoon ???
ive tired a ton of differnt shafts in both new and old eggs. kali, a cpl of differnt flex quadras , cpl of oziks, steel, fubuki,stock, all of them really really good shafts. for what i want the egg for , long balls to par 5s the crazy fw 80 suits the new egg perfectly. it takes out just a bit of the height u get (, you can also hit low shots with this ) , but for long chasing rolls , the quadra is best for this ive found. i took the old egg 13* with a quadra 75s cut driver shaft and my new egg -crazy 15* to a brute of a links course on the central coast of NSW (magenta shores, god its just brutal!) and hardly used a driver. the 13* i hit so low and piercing as a driver replacement and the 15* as the long ball to the green which i had to hit a LOT on par 4s. no problems at all. no balooning, no blowing off the course. these in tandem worked beautifully, the driver i just couldnt control into the cyclone. the eggs held thier own. the 13* was easily as long as my driver as well. it rolled for ever. that beauty has served its purpose for me ,no good in japan, no roll. the new egg crazy combo, 2 thumbs up !
