Price too high? No.. Paid add. 96 USD import tax in my country, the buyer doesn´t have to pay now (have all the papers).. Installation is made by one of the best club fitters in my area. So, it´s a BIG discount only after 2 rounds of golf..-) Head only is possible, too.

Tungsten powder in the tip is normally the best way. With lead tape on the head you can change also the trajectory.

head only for a reasonable offer..

Head played only two rounds. Need more spin.. A-Grind 10.5 with ProjectX6.0, Lamkin Grip, and head cover, Swingweight D2: 430 USD + shipping or head only for a reasonable offer.

How could a driver a "fairway finder" with foregivness = D???

Tried the first time the A-Grind 10.5. Club face is very very hard. At adress perfectly and stable thru the swing. As the angle of gravity seems around 18-20 deg. which shafts give enough kick and which also gives enough spin for this "spin killer"??

More of a gold. The part which reflects the light shines more of a yellow. Review.. asap!

Find the Regio Formulas (original, M) one of the best shafts in the market - even compare to Crazy and others 50-90t shafts. Tried the Regio Formula 65 s also in Egg 2010 (loved the FW80 installed before in it). Result: Different, but great!! Looking for a head for the new Regio MB sitting around here.. -)

Best looking driver for a long time.. Review asap!

On golfwrx people told the 125 msi = 80T (.. bud I don´t know..). There a new shafts with 90t in the market e.g. the new Nippon Regio Formula MB

Advances in Driver tech .. great question! All of us looking for more distance. When I decide to sell a driver or a driver head 90% it´s because of less control: So which innovation made control "easy as nothing"?: Sliders ! (see TM SLDR, Callaway Big Bertha orig., Mizuno JPX 850). 1. Most innovation to get control / stable trajectory: With "normal" drivers in the pastI tried over 4-6 month (for each driver) by changing shafts, grips, add. weights, rotating the shaft spine .. to get the "perfect and stable trajectory". Most of the time the result didn´t impress me. With all driver heads with sliders I needed 15 Minutes (not month..) to get a stable trajectory (need more weight at toe). That how it works (for me). 2. Most innovation to increase distance: I like the CoG around 20-22deg (bec. of control). With the original Ryoma D1 and the heavy 60g back weight it was the first driver witg CoG around 27-30? deg. The addion. distance I got was really impressiv (but the D1 was a hook machine..). The idea of Ryoma is copied by a lot of companies (new Ping driver, Egg 1..). So a new JDM driver head with a slider AND much weight back would be a really innovation. Control after 20 balls..

I think the PRGR EGG1 is the only driver of the peer group which is "pure straight by design" - all other heads are good for players looking also for "workable trajectories". Just my 2 ct. The only reason not too buy the head, could be the head weight. I red, it is only around 192g. This head with 200g.. a fairway splitter!!

Very interested to read T. review of Kamui Air!

Hi Chris, no the new RF 800 alpha-spec.! The review I found on a japanese site (rating-gate.com) is true!! Tested today 9.5 (open face angle) and 10.5 (square). Both heads are very very impressiv.

Compared today the new Geotech alpha-spec. to Kamui Ray (n.c.) and Ryoma Maxima. The new Geotech is awesome and lightyears (for my swing) better then Ray and Maxima. First try of a Geotech head. As a big fan of Kamui Works...: Wow!!

Really good arguements.. What´s about their warranty in case of mutliple shaft changes / heading the hosel??

.. there are a lot of awesome heads in the market, so what to order next..?-))

Ratinggate tested the Max Soul 450Ti head as best head for all swingspeeds (< 43mph, > 43mph). Rating is better than for old Ryoma old D1/VSpec, Kamui 456, Epon.... for example. Wow! As here are lot of forum members seeem to look for "the best of the best"..: How does the 450Ti compare to Maxima, Kamui Ray, TRPX, Crazy 450 ...?

Happy Birthday, Tario!

As I´m also one of the guys who tend to hook (e.g. the older Ryoma D1 was a hook machine for me), I looked this time for a straight head and the right shaft. Crazy LY01 R in Ryoma Maxima V 9.5 gave me to high trajectory / sometimes hooks. Decided next to install Nippoin Regio Formula 55 s in Maxima. The shaft is really great. Soft, kicking but stable enough for a "hooker" like me. Trajectory is depending on the weights (sometime with counterweight in the grip) higher or lower. Dispersion is brilliant. Nippon Regio plays softer to flex. The 55s is a butt 6.3 (compared to a LY01R = 6.4). The 65s is a 6.8 and the 75x is a 8.1 for example (measurements from another internet side). Another observation I made: In the beginning I had a lot of mis**ts. Tried to check a lot of parameters (ball position, tee height, swingweight...). I found out, that balls with low compression (for my swintgspeed) doesn´t work with the Maxima. Measured it a lot of times. All low compression balls sending to the left / some spraying. The balls with higher compression straight as an arrow. So check your balls..??

Chris, wondering you pair Maxima with DI7. As Maxima is high launching, wouldn´t be AD GT7 the better choice?

Sorry, can someone shift it in "Maxima Reviews" please?-? By the way: Great write up wmclarenf1!! --------------- After had not much success with my loved Crazy LY01 in Maxima V 9.5 I played today the Nippon Regio Formula 55 stiff in Maxima. What a difference...!!-)) Very straight and very forgiving. Stupid easy to hit. That combo is feeling really great. Trajectory is at the moment a little bit to high for my taste (some other would maybe say perfect), so I don´t get as much roll out as I wish. Will dial in during the next weeks and experimenting with the different weights. Did I say it is straight?? The Nippon Regio Formula is a really great shaft. Much better as e.g. Rombax Type X, because dispersion is much tighter and feel is overall more stable.

After playing some rounds with Maxima V 9.5 / Crazy LY01 R I must say, the shaft is not the perfect match for the head (and I really love the LY01 - played different types during the past 5 years). Too wild and launch is too high. As someone said we should look more for a tip stiffer shaft ? Maybe yes. I´m sure the head needs a shaft with lower tip TORQUE. Next I will give the Nippon Region Formula a try, because the shaft has a great feel in Kamui Ray, lower trajetory, more tip stiffness and overall lower torque.

.. same ss and same Crazy flex!-)) Looking at Quadras cpm readings they write on their site 242 cpm for SR and 250 cpm for stiff (7´´ clamp, 45 inch, 198g head). Meaning with 5´´ clamp round about 226 cpm (SR) and 234 cpm (stiff). So the Quadra SR is like Crazy 5.9 and Quadra stiff like Crazy 6.4 - right? Do you gain distance with softer flex? (as I´m a fan as play as soft as you can..) Did you see wider dispersion with softer Quadra flex?
