sjdavies47 Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 So having just started to get my D1 v spec dialled in for the new season my hoing instinct kicked in and I started thinking about what the maxima would be like :P. The previous posts I have seen are confusing. Loft for loft is it higher or lower than the d1? It sounds like it is a higher spinning head although may produce a stiffer tip? Any experience gratefully received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddmnkey Posted April 19, 2015 Report Share Posted April 19, 2015 I don't have any experience with the D1 however with the Maxima Tupe V you want to go 1* lower in loft. A few have noticed including myself that it tends to launch higher than the loft on the head might suggest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
needmoregolf Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 I think that may be because of its shallow hosel depth and a more active tip no matter what your shaft selection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 The Maxima is one of the longest Drivers I have ever hit. But I just could not get it right. Some rounds I seriously could not hit a fairway. I think if you have the perseverance to try different combos, it could be something sensational. I have the same shaft in mine as in my original Ryoma. One Is just a fairway finder, the other could not hit a barn door. A lot have said this, including Chris. He would be a good starting point, thoug there is honestly nothing wrong with the original Ryoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 I will second that, the distance of the maxima is unreal, I have the Vspec ST somewhere, only used it for a couple rounds but remember it blowing my mind. And that was with the stock shaft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
