+TourSpecGolfer Posted May 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Nice looking club, but what is going on with the hosel? looks a bit shonky to my eye....Interested in your thoughts on how the shaft performs.... Thanks for the pics. The Shaft needs to go! Axiv now Installed, Testing 9 holes later this afternoon. The hosel is no bother its just a bit more style than most are used to, its basically the same. Overall the quality of this beauty is amazing. Not many Drivers are made in Japan. It reminds me of the R7 in a way, Deep face, similar view from above.

pitbull808 Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Chris, what's the CC's on that driver? That face looks deep enough to hit two balls at once. :smile2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted May 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 I was able to play a good 3 rounds with this club, the first round was with the M-43 stock shaft which produced a really nice high fade for me, not so great against the wind but just amazing downwind with what seemed to feel like extended hang time. After re shafting it with the new Axiv 6064M by Mamiya, the mother company of UST I was hitting tight draws as expected, the hang time was reduced with the re-shaft but overall i was getting a much better ball flight and trajectory. The combo of 10.5 degrees loft and a tipping makes this high torque shaft play very smooth with a vibrant kick. The TR-X Head reminds me of an R7 from profile. The feel is a very soft hollow thwack when hit on the screws, when hit off center it feels like a normal titanium driver. The Driver head has a regular C.F.R.P compression rating which gave me the impression that it puffs up and expands at impact which helps release or push it off the club face. So far this Driver has beat the Nike DFI+ just based on distance alone. IMO its a very easy club to hit and It will be interesting to see how it ranks against a few others I have coming. Against the R7 I think I can say it seems longer and more forgiving yet with many of the same setup characteristics, very well made and finished and the Magnet Head cover is best i have seen yet.

Lennie Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Chris, glad you're liking the club. I hit it well and probably will regret selling it over time, but I can only justify one $700 driver at a time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
