bogeydog Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ok someone must have one by now. What is the story? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I've had one for a few weeks. I am very happy with it especially the feel. It's very soft and reminds me more of the 460ZR from Epon except more forgiving for me and longer. (I have the 0.88 COR one) It's been our best selling driver over the last few weeks and its not even close. Tourspecgolfer (Chris) tested one while in Japan here a few weeks ago and idrive has one as well so they may want to chime in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bogeydog Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Looks like they can also change the center of gravity. What are the launch and spin characteristics of the head? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Yes B, they can also shift the weighting in the head since its built from scratch ie if you want it draw biased or fade biased or neutral. The CG is placed a touch back for a higher low spin launch but because the lofts are true to spec unlike many OEM's it actually launches lower for me even though I am using an 11* with Motore Speeder than say my PRGR GN502 10.5 with Griffin. There is no other custom built driver like this from any other manufacturer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 #1 it performs and feels amazing and best of all it's simply the best options ever provided for any driver or at least that I have seen. You can get the same service from Honma but it costs you about 5,000 - 6,000 USD. I hit all of the Kamui drivers, the 456 silver reminds me of the 460ZR it has that area on the face where you see the two types of materials by difference in color. Feel ranks very high for me, distance is up there with the best and the options make this IMO the best current driver on the market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Played 5 rounds with it now. No range time. I love it. Took about 9 holes to dial in. What nobody is saying that I've noticed as much as anything is how forgiving it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennie Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Ok someone must have one by now. What is the story? Just ordered one, 10 degree draw biased, square face, Griffin shaft. Will report on results once I receive and (hopefully, weather permitting) get a chance to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Just got off of the Golf course. Round 6 and I have this thing DIALED. Didn't miss a fairway today, my confidence in this club is just overwhelming. EVERYBODY I've played with has hit this club and absolutely loved it. One of the guys in the group today thought he was going to play it as if it were in his bag... after the third hole I had to tell him that I love 'em and all but you need to get your own!!! I am in love with this driver and shaft combination. For the money,compared to anything else out there this is the way to go. Custom lie, loft, face angle, weight, finish, hand made and I promise you it just screams quality. The sound is perfect, the feel and results are even better. Can you tell I Love this thing???? This is a must have if you're looking for a Driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idrive Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Here it is. :) Kamui Loft: 11* Kamui Face Angle: Square 0* Kamui Lie Angle: 58* Kamui Head Weight: 201g Kamui Finish: Metallic Black Pearl I asked if they could get the lie angle to 57* even though it wasn't an option. It turned out closer to 57* than 58* I ordered head only as I already had the Griffin Proto. Goodsie installed the shaft which he pure/flo'd. Swing weight came out at D3 at 45" length. At this moment I don't think I would change anything if I were to start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the same shaft. Where did you put the center of gravity? (draw, fade, square) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idrive Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Square. I have to say I forgot to ask Goodsie what it ended up at. It was built to for a 100mph swing. I have a guy I play with that swings a nice smooth 110mph. He had no problems with the shaft and was hitting it dead straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gocchin Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 People definitely love the ability to customize the specs and on top of it the performance and feel and forgiveness I must have helped more than 10 people already in the last month alone with their specs for the Kamui including one with a 57* lie and 2* open face at 9* loft and fade biased. If you need something specific (like idrive's 57* lie) feel free to contact me as I am in contact with Kamui regularly. I battle the right side so my specs were 11* 61* lie 2.0* closed Draw biased Black Pearl 0.88COR Motore Speeder VC3.0 lightweight specs 282g total weight C8 Swing Weight 44.5" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good Flat Line twang. Finished Kamui Club ended at 45.00", D3 with 258cpm's. A real joy to get to work on this Fab Shaft and Head combo.
