royal collection driving spoon

[supo]

made this little set up cpl of weeks ago

gamed it on sat first time after a few very tasty range sessions

you can hit it offthe ground if u really need to.

but better off staying away from this unless u swing out of yr shoes.

dont think its really made for this shot but its possible ,most definatly but not recomended.

i made this for club my home track as a foil for my kasco FD, just felt like trying a differnt driving spoon.

theres 3-4 holes that are custom made for a shot of about 270 and this is the club my course is long but u realyl dont need a driver hence my semi obsession with the DS models.

i can generate good head speed, centre the shot and rely on a small draw with confidence with this club .

me likey.

the crazy 80 fw shaft in it is

OUTSTANDING

so tight, so rigid, and just thumps thru the ball.

the feel is fantastic, the shape is like a big 3 wood. not a small driver like the kasco

i prefer the fuller shape of the kasco but i hit this one 4 times at 100% .

perfect.

ripper of a club.

if driving is getting u down, and u want an altenate club, then i thoroughly recomend this club,ESPECIALLY if u like a sleeker style FW.

actually , i dont really, which is why i always struggele with the egg spoon , a much as i love it , i hit fuller heads much better.

get the right flexed fw80 and this head and ur away

distance is great wasnt far behind my drives and up with my buddeis if not in fornt with LOTS more control

looks l ike the old 3 woods are dead i n the water for me now, ive found the fairway driver things.

iver used a cpl of these before and this set up is my fav by a way the extra crazy twang is just addicitive.

i think im going to pull the quadra 75xs form the kasco and put a sigma fw in that now .

addicted YES...!

i have been pondering this route many times.

on my round today i hit a couple into the obs!

i played 4w + 3 iron most of the round, oh what i

would have done for one of those Dspoons!

if you were to choose, and only game one for the

rest of your life, Kasco FD or RC Ds 13, what would

it be and why? you can only have one answer:)

i ask as i am going to be getting a FD soon, unless ofcourse

you think the rc ds would be the better choice?

for ME........,

100% the kasco.

distance terrific, not as solid as the RC

but thats shape realated not quality.

the kasco has a much bigger face that says smah the living daylights out of me as hard and often as u like.

so i do.

the sound tho is horrific! ( or fantastic) its like a whip crack, tingy ping

i actually love it now bec i KNOW when ive got it.

its def a small driver not a big 3 wood.

thats what i like thast the way im going even with drivers

coming down in shape size and cavity bigger face

the drivers im hititng best are the epon 101 and the maruman super deep.

both big faces small bodies

but if u like the egg spoon stlye then the RC is yr go.

ok copy that. i will get the kasco. something like that stays in your bag

that long it must be good. so kasco it is, will shaft with the 9003 non P.

cant possibly be as obnoxious as the older eggs!

actually this could be the best investment in golf gear in a long time!

if i am going the DS route it may as well be a mini driver thats infinitely

easier to hit than driver. probbaly hit the little bugger further based on average

total # of drives.

between the kasco and the RC, which is the easier of the two?

thanks!

i think the kasco its got a triangle shaped thin back , big face. almost TM burner tour-esque .. i know hteres a term fo that but it escapes me.

I almost bought the Kasco FD when it was on sale in Bangkok more than a year ago..I held it, it set up really great, looked powerful and easy at the same time. I thought it was such a great idea, even liked the grey crown on it. I had a friend with me that thought I was insane to buy something like that since I hit my 3 wood really well, and had just bought a new driver. So, he talked me out of it, and I've had a nagging feeling about the FD ever since. And then Stu of all experts come along and sing it's praises! Damn, next time i go up to Bangkok I wil go get one of these things, they should be quite easy to find used these days, maybe even head only..Project FD is taking form. I should have trusted my instincts, but now I'm more than sure this is a great club, thanks to Stu!

Yep, will pick one up in Bangkok next time I go there. They are not that difficult to find there, Kasco is popular here in Thailand. Actually one of the top selling brands here.

You might try the DS with the FW Sigma 50 Noir... Absolute dream of a combo. I have the FW80 in a 3 wood and like it quite a bit, but think I can go harder when I need to with the Sigma 50. Great combo and is currently in direct competition with the Yonex 380/P9003 combo. Actually I think it is winning the competition as I prefer the smaller head set up and the D/S is about as small as you can get these days.
