ShopTalk: Driver head thoughts

Folks - your thoughts please: I have an exceptionally gifted athlete who has markedly improved over the last 12 months. He is 22, a single digit handicap that can get much lower if we tighten up his short game. He's working with a pro on his swingshape but it is pretty sweet as it is. Facts:

Try a KZG 7* 325 Titanium. If you are not a KZG dealer or have access to one then maybe a Vector 320 in 7* would fill the bill (available from Golf Coast - call Jerry Connolly). Rich "Mac" McHattie Mac's Golf

ShopTalk: Whippy's

A couple of weeks ago there was discussions on making a club similar to the Whippy. There was some mention of using a Driveway Marker for the shaft. This driveway marker: Is that the rod with a reflector attached? Thanks in advance. Ed

I'd look at the companies making driver heads specifically for the long drive tour. Guys like Zuback generate even more clubhead speed, significantly and consistently. So clubheads made for them should stand up. They will also have the lower lofts that your golfer will probably need. Which

FWIW I built both a driver and a six iron using the driveway market shaft. Dug around and found a source for black acetal (aka Delron [r] ) rods, dimensions of .375 .3125. More flexible than the driveway market rod and a better fit for golf heads. Tensile strength is rated at 9,720 psi.

I'll second the feedback David's received on the project X - they're a wonderful shaft if they fit your swing. I think the weakest flex they're available in is 5.5 or 6.0. They produce a slightly higher ballflight that both standard rifles and tour flighted rifles in the long irons, and

David, Thanks for the feed back. This customer is a Pro and is looking for a lower ball flight. He is now using KZG blades with Dynamic Gold S300 shafts and feels he is losing 15 yards because of higher trajectory. He was told , by other Pro's, these shafts will lower his ball flight.

Pat, I just replied to David's feedback and got back to see yours. Thank you. He normally hits his 5I 190yrds. but not with his forged blades and Dynamic Gold S300 shafts. He claims he is losing 15yrds. with these clubs. I have very little experience with any kind of forged blades, will
