We tested: LD/F: 9°, 10.5° in Aldila NV-F; LD/M Offset: 9°, 10.5° in Aldila NVS-M; LD/M: 10.5°, 12° in Aldila NVS-M; LD/M Offset Seniors: 12° in Mitsubishi Bassara-M; Speed Pro/X Deep Face: 8.5°, 9.5°, 10.5° in Aldila VS Proto 65; Speed Pro/X Shallow Face: 8.5°, 9.5°, 10.5° in Fujikura Speeder Pro graphite shaft

Company line: "Head dimensions (5" x 4.9") is to edge of legal regulations. LD (for "limit dimensions") has a "fast-back" crown with deep dimples to push CG lower and back. Results in high MOI (5,000+), increased launch and carry."

Our Test Panel says: Excellent combination of power and feel; there's a trampoline effect without an echo; good feel runs from head up into the arms; crown aesthetic requires some getting used to; pretty good forgiveness factor.

Yowza! This is a long and ferocious beast when you hit it square.—Peter Kraus, 20 Handicap
