Find the right driver for your game with our interactive driver fitting, powered by Hot Stix.

Fujikura Fit-On CG Gold, Fujikura Fit-On
CG Red, Fujikura Speeder 652, Grafalloy
ProLaunch Blue and Graphite Design
YS-7 graphite shaft
Company line: "Our inverted crown
design aligns the sweet spot and 'hot
spot' to produce optimal launch
conditions for more distance. Eleven
percent larger face area and 'face
centered' performance maximizes ball
speed over the entire face."
Our Test Panel says: Reliable, middle-ofthe-
pack performer; indented top seems
to promote a low takeaway; looks easy—
and is easy—to get airborne; very loud
impact sound is offensive to some;
strange-looking head squares to target
easily for adequate control.
Hit it once and you'll forget it looks odd.—Robert Record, 13 Handicap
