Hi, John! I'll be placing an order in a day or two. A few shafts and one or more heads. A question to help me with my current musings:
How would you -- or anybody who who has tried both -- compare the Bang SRV-II with the SMT Mv2 head? Or have you played both? I'm particularly concerned with forgivingness, and next with distance. Here's my quandary. I'm playing an all-Clubmaker-Online driver that I'm very happy with: SRV-II head on a Pure Energy shaft. I'm getting all the length I need with a VERY forgiving head; if I hit it anywhere near the very big (very DEEP) face, I don't seem to lose much distance. That's plenty good enough for me; I shouldn't even be thinking about another driver. :-) But being a golfer and a clubmaker... :-D I still have the Big Titanium head on the AJ Tech shaft. The Big Titanium head was very nice for its time, but I've learned to love the advantages of a deep face. I'm thinking about putting the AJ shaft in a different head. But, if I can't match the forgivingness of my current SRV/SK-PE driver, I probably shouldn't even bother. Hitting fairways is more important than 10 extra yards. I'm rambling now, but I think you get the idea. BTW, the other components of the order are: * A driver identical to mine for a friend who tried mine and can't live without one. * An experiment: I've never liked graphite shafts in anything but a driver. But I have a utility iron (Infiniti HotShot 21* that serves as my 3-iron) that is too heavy to fit into my set on a steel shaft. I'm currently using a lightweight steel shaft, but can't get that shaft stiff enough to fit into my set's slope -- and it still isn't quite long enough. So let's see if I can get it to fit my set spec-wise with a graphite shaft -- probably TT-80 -- and see if I like it that way. Thanks for bearing with me, DaveT ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, August 08, 2002 2:42 PM Subject: ShopTalk: new driver > Off to test my newest Shoptalk combo...SK Fiber Pure Energy with SMT > Mv2 bore thru.
