Company brass believe the aerodynamic head design
(including "V-slot" sole and side slots) should allow you
to swing faster. Its geometric shape (with light crown)
distributes mass to the rear corners for improved
forgiveness (MOI of 5,300 g/cm2). Two rear
weight ports (4 grams each) contribute to the club's
forgiving nature. Hex TX comes with
the Mitsubishi Rayon CP4 shaft. For an extra $50, you can upgrade to the Grafalloy ProLaunch Platinum. Two rear weight ports (4 grams each) contribute to the club's forgiving nature.
