+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2014 Modart - MA01D Comparo Pics Coming Soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 Impressions: So I've had good time with both Modart drivers and it's time to share my thoughts. Both the D & S feel just about the same at impact. It's a softer metallic crunch one of the best drivers I've felt since the S-Yard 388. I know most of you will go for the D because it sets up better and deeper faces just look cooler but between the two and with various shafts I consistently hit the MA01S better, straighter and more consistently. The S - shallow version also felt a touch more hollow at the center of the crunch which I like because that is the only thing that makes the S softer and feel any different than the D. Results and preference will, of course, vary depending on the player. How long is it? It's better than most and I think if you really dial it in it can be just as long as the best. It was shorter than my ST Maxima of course but other than that it hung right up there with my RomaRo Type-R and the PRGR Egg 1 but get this the MA01S was the second most forgiving driver of the bunch, the first was the RomaRo. I did put a 47" trpx shaft in the S head and it was as long as the Maxima, felt great, kick was awesome just a total experience driver build. Same shaft at 45" in the D was a very different experience, feel was a bit harsher the ball flight was noticeably lower and mis hits went worse. I had a buddy of mine who doesn't know much about clubs, but is a 7hcp take both drivers for his round after mind and he dropped them off saying the D was the straightest driver he has hit ever and that the 45" shaft was smooth as silk.... just goes to show results will always vary. In regards to fit, finish, quality, made in Japan. Yup, it's top notch all the way around especially the beautiful black finish, the only flaw in this regard is the face is a different material so the finish changes in tone slightly on the face where the two materials meet. No biggie but if I had to find a flaw this was it. The profile of this club is boutique, very player but the two side by side reveal the D is one hell of a sexy driver see pics below: ( please note all drivers on right side will look better if shots are taken together ) MA01S on left - MA01D on right.

potuna Posted June 5, 2014 Report Share Posted June 5, 2014 I've been saying D is one of the best drivers I've owned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Does anyone not like these drivers? Robbie? Mpbachman? IMO both the D and the S are amongst the best available today, the metallic crunch is light and pure, head for head I'm not sure if these are longer than the Maxima but with my 47" shaft it's distance is longer than the special tune maxima which is a shocker as nothing has gotten close.

robbie Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Never got a chance to hit it.....straight from the box to Michael's house....the face is beautiful ! I heard from initial reviews that he like it a lot from sound and feel and it should be getting a workout soon...It is shafted with a TRPX Air but ill let Michael elaborate on his newest baby !

+TourSpecGolfer Posted June 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 thanks robbie, what a nice pal you are giving him first whacks on your new toy. I'm looking forward to how it stacks against your Kamui Pro which is no easy feat for any driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpbachman Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Robbie is a saint! I was bummed by missing the Modart and he personally hand delivered the head for me to try it out and I have to say, it is not leaving my bag ;) The feel is amazing. Its this crunchy soft feel, great distance and forgiveness and just beautiful to look at. I couldn't get the TRPX Air to work in it (its the shaft, not the head), so I am putting in my gamer Crazy LY01 shaft from another head and I think that will seal the deal. Just from my experience with the head, it is on par with all the other great heads on distance, more forgiveness than similar profile heads (435, TRPX D-031, etc), better feel, better feedback, better to look at :) I am now a HUGE Modart fan. The driver, fairways and utility all perform. This is no joke, this brand is the real deal. Now, if they made a player's cavity blade similar to a 316, I would be in HUGE trouble.

mpbachman Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Dude, hope your eye is healing quickly. We need to get out and play again soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Sadly I have not hit any of these yet. Saw them in person for the first time recemtly, and all the woods look as good in the flesh as they do in the photos. When you see them, they just look like serious weapons.

sbeaz Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 LOVE the MA01D. Forgiveness is off the charts and the length is surprising. When you look at it...pictures really don't do it justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+TourSpecGolfer Posted July 20, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 Modart Drivers, FW, UT's and the custom wedges are all top notch, among TSG's very best. we can easily recommend any of these for players looking for the perfect setup, feel, and performance.
