August 19, 201113 yr Just wondering :) What do you mean 'new' driver, B? Another one besides the present 3 models?
August 19, 201113 yr I for sure as heck will! Chris, there is a new model? Not sure about the bamboo shaft you got on yours :)

August 19, 201113 yr I will of course get it but keep in mind it is Hi Cor in other words non conforming which will rule out a lot of potential buyers. What I'm interested in seeing is the new fairway woods and if they will rival the spoon for ease of use and distance...

What I'm interested in seeing is the new fairway woods and if they will rival the spoon for ease of use and distance... This is the annoying part. I play in competitions and often see players using non conforming drivers. No one really does anything. Is there conforming rules with fairway wood? like COR max? E
August 20, 201113 yr This is the annoying part. I play in competitions and often see players using non conforming drivers. No one really does anything. Is there conforming rules with fairway wood? like COR max? E Yes, the COR (0.83) rules are the same for FW as it is for driver.
August 20, 201113 yr Me! I want one! but I won't be able to afford one so hopefully I can buy an older one from those who will upgrade
August 22, 201113 yr I wonder what they'll crank the COR up to. 86-87 hardly worth it IMO. The average player (90mph ss) will see an increase of not more than 5 about yards. The guy that swings 120mph wouldn't be able to control it... It should be geared toward the recreational golfer. The high capers will get more benefit from it. Hope they do something in the 90+ range... that would be fun!!!
September 8, 201113 yr We got updated info today from Ryoma regarding their FW which will be released mid October. There will be a 13* 15* and 18* ALL Titanium heads and then 21 and 24* stainless steel bodies with maraging faces. There will be some intense weighting on these heads like the driver, apparently around 120g of weighting which is unheard of in an FW meaning ultra thin walls. Cor will be around 0.82-0.83 so very driver like. The Hi-Cor driver will be 0.88 COR and be limited to only 2000 pieces for ALL of Japan with a special gold black look to it. The disappointing part is that the design and look is the same as the current D-1 Series with minor aesthetic changes and the higher COR.

Thx for the update Fw sounds intriguing, thin body walls hope it is durable since fw does hit the ground 21, 24 is that 7,9w or hybrid? High3r cor drver is not going to benefit a slower swing like mine Its hard to improve on a good product already
