ERC HOT vs X-18 Comparison pics!


Recommended Posts

Chris,

Is the ERC Hot essentially the same club as the FT-3 (albeit with a hotter face)? What about the Hot vs. the SH model? Any differences?

I'd also be interested to know some of the selling points of the X-18. I understand the sole design is an improvement so that you get a better setup.

Thanks!

Its a .350 hosel and its non conforming.

I have the ERC HOT, FT-3 and X-18, the X18 is my favorite just because it seems easier to hit, The sole design is just to keep it sitting flat and still firm to the ground, the sound is less awkward than the ERC HOT/FT-3 due to the carbon only being on the crown. The stock JV-X shaft was pretty decent, its made by Graphite Design. It too has a lower trajectory similar to the ERC HOT. This driver has beat out the others to get into my bag, its next test is the soon to be released Tourstage ViQ 450cc w/W60 and the new Tourstage XD2 365cc.

Chris,  

Just a followup question on the X-18.  Have you compared this with the Ignite DFI?  Any thoughts on which one is hotter?

The DFI is more forgiving and feels better. I cant tell which one is longer because I sold my DFI before I had the chance to test them side by side. I don't remember the DFI being as long as the X-18 stock shaft vs stock shaft.
