Baldo VT511 impression


Recommended Posts

I just have the Baldo VT511 in 8 degree loft (received few days ago from great TSG service!!) built with a Diamana B series in 60g flex X this morning. The club is between D2-D3 and in 45 inch length. Grip is Perfect Pro in Blue color so it kind of compliment each other between the shaft and the grip as far as the coloring is concern. Club is very square face when place at address. Truly classic pear head deep face shape. Built quality is very good especially the forged face. Very smooth and solid. The white paint makes the club look very good, BUT the mat white paint could accumulate stain over time. Need special care to keep the white paint pearl white finish all the time. What I like most is the ferrule!! There is Baldo logo around the ferrule which gives it an attention to detail touch!!

Glue still not dry so cannot hit it till later evening. I'll probably hit it tomorrow and will have more updates with comparison to the other drivers in my arsenal especially the Maxima.

The shaft goes well with the head visually!

I think the feel will be quite different from the Maxima.

Feedback from most in Japan is that the Baldo is very soft at impact.

Do let us know how it goes!

Glad we were able to get it to you quickly!

That looks sweeeeeet. Love the colour combo. Please compare on feel/trajectory/distance with your Kamui and Crazy.

Thanks.

jimmieboi,

If you've ever tried the old Mizuno Craft 425 , the feel at impact is similar. It is that good !!

For me, the VT511 is perfect in terms of feel and sound. After I painted mine to Black with a hint of metallic purple, the looks is perfect as well.

Only thing I would ask is more forgiveness. I heard they are coming out with a 460cc version later this summer. ( I guess VT811 is going to be the name .. ? )

If they can keep the same feel and sound and add the forgiveness, we might have a very strong contender against the D1 Maxima.
