jBEAM RX FW 3w with Diamana X70s - a little review

[Ian-500]

Got this in a trade last month. I haven't used a 3w in years as they've been way too close in distance to my driver. Unfortunately I couldn't resist trying out this new jBEAM as it came with a Dia X, which I think is a great shaft in the right head, and I'd never tried it in a FW before.

I would describe the head as mid-size. Face is also mid-size too. Gives me confidence of Botha the tee and fairway. Looks stunning in white. This was a custom order at 15* rather than the standard15.5*.

First initial range session went well, but had a tendency to pull it. This would be down to my crappy swing when not warmed up, but could also be that this is a straight install, no tipping for a 3w. When I have the swing dialled in, this shaft allows me to 'go after it', and combined with this beautiful looking jBEAM, gives a wonderful ball-flight. Very penertrating, even with range balls.

Out on the course yesterday, a quick test over 9 holes. Without giving a hole by hole account, this combo is staying, BUT I either need to warm up on the range first or possibly tip the shaft. Slight tendency to go left, but after the first 3 holes were out of the way, my swing had warmed up and was in full flow. Such a great feel and mid height ball-flight. Massive distance with tight dispersion. Compared it to my Driver on the 8th and 9th holes. I really need to work on my driving, as the 3w stayed with it........or get a jBEAM/Dia X combo as my driver. Lol.

Recommend.
