WE TESTED: 8.5°, 9.5° and 10.5° in Exsar DS3 graphite shaft
COMPANY LINE:
"The geometric head shape increases the heel-toe and up-down MOI for massive forgiveness, while maintaining a low spin rate and high launch angle. The CNC milled plasma welded CorTech face insert delivers maximum USGA allowable ball speed across the face."
OUR TEST PANEL SAYS:
• Pros: Minimal loss of distance or direction on mis-hits; good heft during swing, not like an oversized feather; some like the raised bar on crown and aerodynamic shape; heel s hots are covered up; delivers tightest side-toside dispersion; glossy blue exterior makes club look strong and easy to hit; ball jumps off face.
• Cons: Nothing spectacular, but nothing terribly lacking versus the field; not a vast amount of difference in feel between good and not-so-good hits; closed face can be disturbing; high-pitched ringing sound at impact; better players frown over raised runner on crown.
"Extremely consistent, repeatable, high-ball flight." —Bud Adler (14)
