DRIVER alternates: 2,3,4w short 1w..,

A thread , for times when the Driver doesnt do ....., what its payed to do!

I build truck loads of tee shot clubs, short 1 woods , strong 3 woods, flightier 2 woods , i expermient with all and everything, leave no stone untured when it comes to searching for a differnt kind of club for THAT shot or day.
of course there is no 1 best anwer but that doeesnt stop me trying , and heaven knows ive tried LOTS!

so heres a few things that ive put together over the years , most have been very good, of course theres been moer than a fed duds and a few oh my good gawwwwwwwds................,
pics always speak volumes and numbers sanctify the physical.

my numbers dont come form a ball machine measruing device at a driving range with driving range balls , they come from , " oh thats where the ball ended up on a golf course fairway, " . i dont give a ratssssasss what the speed guns say , its ALL about where the ball l ends up, what flight i see, waht lateral disperison i see ON A course , down a fairway .

So.. heres a start:er...,
PRGR egg mfd 15* >
It has to be THIS specific prgr egg head bec the others jsut dont cut it from the tee, from a fairway oh yes , they eat that up but a tee shot aint there cup-o-tea, this model is by far and away the best tee wood.
i had this with many shafts but the one that worked prob the best was an 80g matirx f8m2 proto, set up was unbeatable, SO powerfull , strong and unyeliding laterally.
i only broke this up bec i wanted to try that shaft in a driver head at 44 inch, which is were it is now in a yamaha v203 9*( thats coming up later)
the other shaft match was a fire express original yellow/red fw 75sx good lord that was a beaut, little higher launch prob a nicer feel in fact, and long!
if 3 woods at 15* are a good eye sight for you this head wil be hard to beat, of all 3 woods, buiilds from a tee, this has been my most successful. its got a big face it frames the ball unlike most others , it doernst like to go left or right at all, and its like to go wayyyyyyyyyy wayyyyyyyyyy out there.
yea happy to say , this is the best 15*

SOLID CONTACTS 2w
without a doubt, in the top for tee alterates that can be doubled from the faiway( shaft dependant) , fabulous shape at address, can see any shot shape imaginable and flight height variablity as good as anything ive hit . it has a super strong impact and cant be over powered if paired with the relevant shaft.
if i play from front tees with friends ill take this out instead of a driver , gives oooooodles more consitency and isnt really that much shorter than a driver other than into the wind, or when theres a thin fairway that needs placement rather than brute force. . i have 2, shated with a diamana stinger 70x and a diamana x 70x.
the X shaft is the stronger of them with less feel but wil not move laterally , its lower and shorter over all , the stinger has a bit of manouverability to it can vary ball flight better and is longer. ( my fave of the pair ) prob bec i dont have the minerals to ignite the X quite like it shud be.
Its always a club ill take with and decided if i game it on the day. any kind of s**tty day( rain. wind ) more oft than not i will.
cud see a possibility that a diamana red series get a go in the future , bec it is more than possible to hit from the deck nad negated the need for a 3w.

KASCO FD
IMO......, the best club ever made .
can use this for everything , it plays totaly differnt dependant on what shaft u have it with, the original is a super whippy elastic rubbery sling shot that is ........awsome, from a tee, its does get a bit airy with the stock but from the deck there no issue at all, gets up goes LONG and one can shape to any shot shape and height u can possibly see.

so. naturally i changed shafts in it.

Diamana stinger, diamana X, GD9003x,FEX 2014 proto, crazy proto s19s and of coursse the original shaft.
there is NEVER a round one of these dont go in the bag for at least the ride up, the only way its not in the bag is when i choose the solid contacts instead, both heads see to go +/- a yard or so from each other distance wise but the differnce in flight and WIND determins which one will get the nod.
i use it primarily for a driver alt , i dont hit it form the deck much ,but as mentioned u can, i perfer a 3w or 4w for that.
Off the tee in normal conds if i clobber both a driver and this , the kascos prob no more than <20 yards behind , BUT i count on 1 hand the amount of misses ive had with it , ever,

By far and away its point of differentiation is the lack of negative results on non centered shots.
thers bacically none but IF u do then its never been a catastrophe...........ever.. sure u loose distance but direction is awsome it really is. its so relaible, so automatic, ive gottem so used to this that when ever i play short tracks or from the front tees i dont take a driver , no need. this thing has it covered.

I will guarantee tho , this is NOT going to be everyons cup -o-tea, regarldess of how good it plays bec of the sound it makes.. its.... well.....something akin to the equivalent of the saying " it has a head only a mother cud love," but sound wise.
Think nike sasquatch.
apart from that, one can hit this as far or short as needed. its an amazing stick.
made of what kasco calls super hyten maraging titanium , some kind of in house tech which cost LOADS, . persoanlly i love it .
For me , i think it plays best with the diamana X.. just has an extra gear to it , nd it laucnhesl lower , but i always kind of go for the stinger version bec the sound./feel combo is my fave + it has a cadero grip , so prefer that from the tee.

honestly dont know why i have others for this is so good , but im a clubho, so, why not.
