nobmontana Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 (edited) A new 430cc driver is being released by Baldo sometime January of 2013. Many of the Baldo dealers in Japan already are posting first impressions of testing the Baldo VT511 driver on their blogs. This may well be a hype creating marketing strategy, but all are saying that the feel at impact is softer than anything else on the market today. ( one guy mentions the original MP Craft 425 as being comparable ) They apparently have a "New" Precision Forged Titanium material they use for the face to make this happen. I really like the design of the sole as well as how deep the face is. Have not been a big fan of white drivers til now, but I just may have to try this one when it comes out. Rumor has it that there may be a 460cc version later in the year as well. Edited December 20, 2012 by nobmontana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobmontana Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I hear you on the "too many drivers" I think having three drivers is the right number for me ( but currently have five! ) Too many great heads and shafts out there. decisions decisions.....

+TourSpecGolfer Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Just talking to the owner last week, seems like Baldo is improving. We will add this new driver to the proshop as soon as he sends official info. and yum 425 craft was pure. one of my favorite feeling drivers.

DaleUK Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Looks Good... Like the Finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobmontana Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 The original MP Craft 425 was definitely one of the best feeling drivers I had tried in the past. Only issue I had was that it was a bit spinny and could balloon at times. If the new Baldo feels as good without the spin/ballooning effect, I think this could be really good!

MoreBeerBetterGolf Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Thing looks pretty sweet...sound sweet by description. Having a hard time with the name "Baldo" however. Sounds like someone from a Hobbit movie. I guess if that hobbit makes great golf clubs then it's cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
