supo Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm that wont work then.... stuck to the 435 then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiromikey Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 hmmm, maybe down the road i will give this head another shot. just make sure you get the original 435 instead of the 435ii this time ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmclarenf1 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 (edited) congrats brotha!! give it a month of undivided attention. don't even bring anything else to the range until you get comfortable enough with it to realize it's so forgiving that you can go after it every swing. then you'll understand what all the fuss is about! ;) I got big hopes for it. THe 435 was the longest for me but I just don;t have the FW stats with it like I do the Ryoma D1. So I've even bought a new TJ-46 from T. to put into this Crazy 435. Since I play so well with that dispersion wise in the D1, I thought I'd try this in that head. Based on the iron byron results a few years back, the TJ-46 and 435 was THE combo to begin with. And I also have a conforming Romaro 460HX black now in 10* as well. Edited January 8, 2013 by wmclarenf1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoon Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 just make sure you get the original 435 instead of the 435ii this time ;) Yeah will do..neould think the re issue would be better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wmclarenf1 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yeah will do..neould think the re issue would be better! Why? Newest ain;t always better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Why? Newest ain;t always better. you would have thought they improved over a previous design. so why again is the original 435 better over the 435II? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 as a guess. id think the flight is prob higher.. the 435 is a low ball lama. and seeing as the pros now all hit moonballs.. at a guess. id think thye made the new one to reflect the times....... iDOUBT if its any better length/performance wise, it did feel ebtter i guess and sound more appealing. bit like the egg spoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmclarenf1 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I must be the only one who does NOT find the 435 to launch low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 (edited) i used to struggle wth it with a crazy cb50.. it was long but so low .. i didnt get the most out of it . balls were too low to be consistantly long. its wasredicuslouly stright most tof the time.... but it was a tought flex..... and heavy... after shafting it with the stinger and taking small weight off it.... i used it on the weekend in the cold for the first time and seeing where my ball landed i have changed my tune irreversably. this driver is the distance kahoona. i know where i drive to in mid summer.. and i was gettign the ball to the same spots in mid winter. that fact cant be ignored. and. i was getting it HIGH! only thing i cant do is make it bend 1 single millimeter its gunbarrel straight gawwwd bless the stinger! this is my drive for the next few months.

supo Posted January 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 it was the 425 tour. that lives in sydney now , i played with the owner of it in december. he gives it a massive nudge.. handles his swing speed which is a lot faster than mine with aplomb. he was thinking of changing it t untill i (hopefully) talked him out of it bec he murders it! that was one driver i regret selling in a moment of madness !

Still got the 425 Stew and love it. Last week I did shaft the CB50 I got off u late last year and fitted it with the Syard head. Took it out on Saturday and was hit with strong winds and torrential rain. This is one long combo and it was very wet. The head and shaft seemed like the perfect fit. Will be carrying the two drivers in the bag depending on the hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supo Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 Lord.have mercy on my bag This wow syard is magnificent Yes Instantly recogniseable as epon without spin! Think a much easier zero Same feel bit more muted tho Thumlig boring piercing trajectory Absloutely love the matt.finish and the smaller.head suits nicely If any thing not 100% mad.on the elongated.long face As much as the rounder face But the 20 balls ive just hit say otherwise Cant wait to get this on course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supo Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 (edited) the ryoma has the lowest launch and has the most power to it , the tail is very noticeable when struck in the centre. this was the club i chose to play in sever wind in tasmania and it served the best. no change here.. the s-yard felt like it has the hotest face. the launch was in between the other two. swing weight felt heaviest, head was very noticeable, can really feel the shat kick. kamui prob the longest consistant drive consistantly i hit hte middle of htis face more than the others . Ryoma looked like it has the longest singular drive the flight on itis so piercing tho this will run out for ever on short grass. it was consistantly the straightet esp on non centered shots Syard was easiest to move a little bit both directions whcih is what i was hoping for. but not as much as i thought.......so far................. it also doesnt seem to have a bias to it like my kamui seems to have. ended up hittign about 10-15 more balls only with the s-yard at the end of the session to get a bit more of a handle on it and the flight wa a lot more piercing that i was expecting it to be. . expecting great things form it. really does remind me on the zero but easier. love that mat black head... this wil see lots of game time this season by the look of this. dont think theres a real need to do much to drivers now these seem to be pretty fine. only other 2 to the mix are the jbeams. this diamana shaft suits me perfeeclty . love this , i think this is hte most suited shaft ive used,.
