Vegaman Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 There are quite a few Jbeam and Crazy driver heads, and they all look great for different reasons. But how are they when you compare them? From what i understand, the 425 is the smallest and is very workable but not THAT low launch. The 435 and 435II heads are apparently incredibly low launch and spin, with a high COG to the point of making you need at least a degree more of loft compared to almost any other driver? Otherwise you cant get them off the ground according to Stew for example. The CRZ 450 is apparently also extremely low spin, again go for more loft...? The CRZ 460 on the other hand sends the ball sky high, go as low for loft as possible, its also the most forgiving..Or? When it comes to the 445 HG I have not heard where in the "spin stakes" it fits in, but by the look of it it seems almost as low launch as the 435 and 435II? Like a slightly larger head, otherwise very similar? Is there any "official" spin/launch chart to get from Jbeam/Crazy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandee11 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 How would all of them compare to Epon af102 in every department? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 they are similarly muted except the crz 460 which is a rattle snake. the epon 102 is rounded, the jbeams are square. not too dissimilar in feel really ,just a diffferenrt shape. all of the crz , i tend to get frustrated wit at impact, i feel im not getting full value for shot, but when i see where the ball ends up, its all in my head. they go, and go far. the harder the hitter u are the better these things go. the epon 102 is for anyone is just fantastic. i hear its not too bad with a quadra proto either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difficult for sure. I have kept an eye on the 445HG for a while. Looks so "hitable" and powerful somehow..Been thinking about that or the CRZ460 with extra low loft. like 8.5. I have never seen much feedback on the 445Hg for some reason, which is a bit strange really. It seems the other heads are analyzed and sliced and diced but the maybe best looking of all, the 445HG, is ignored. Dont know why. Of the ones you mention though, the 435II looks really sharp with that blacked out look, and somehow seems more "special" than the other two..Not that you see 102s and Yamaha tours in every other bag, not by a long shot, but the 435II seems a bit more "exclusive" somehow. But thats just me. It seems the 435II is the longest though, judging by Supos excellent reviews, but the other 2 feels much better at impact?

C, keep in mind also the 445 is relatively new and the 435II is even newer which is why you don't see them around. The others like the 460 have been around since early this year and the 425 and original 435 are nearly 2 years old. They are all without a doubt good drivers, it will all come down to what each individual personally wants out of that driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
