supo Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 somewhere in the chasm of my sick and twisted mind i decided to rebuild the crazy ls noir shafted ryoma with a shorter heavier punchier shaft the idea being, the old one being absolutely perfect in every way wasnt what i was after....................... why , i dont know so after extensive talks with my builder here we went for a 205 gram head with a gel injection . to get the centre of gravity down abit and produce a more piercing lower spinning shot. the ehavier head will prob take a bit of over all distance away from it but , the idea was "total control" had a hit with it today certianly can NOT hook this sucker. the shots were noticeably lower, piercing, and dispersion spot on, the slices that i get were well controllable and would prob have been 2nd cut thats good for me! distance loss was noticeable against the yamaha but its was way tighter nad pro rolled a long way this is a good builld ill game this on windy days here and back in oz the extra weight in the head made a very very big differnce to the performance of this driver head i no longer feel like im loosing distance from spin gel works and works very very well...!

EdGolf Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hmmm sound and feel usually goes hand in hand. Not sure how I would react to a gel up head lol. Did the swing weight increase a lot with this setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
