Summary: AWESOME!!! There is no need to explain how far and how straight this driver can go with a swing speed of only 85mph. I swing very slow and controlled but still manage to consistently drive a straight 250-270 on my drives. I sometimes whip out a slight fade but it still travels 240 yards on my bad days. The shaft does all the work and so does the 360 cupface.
If you needed a driver that will treat you well...This is it. I used to buy all the Big Name Brands and I keep fooling myself. Now I go with what works this is my fifth driver and I am Keeping it!
Customer Service: Golf Galaxy took care of me here and they were awesome! Golfsmith had the driver at a great deal but the ones they had left were scratched or in the wrong loft/stiffness. So Golf Galaxy Did a price match and added a little off and also had a great selection. I had three drivers to pick from (yeah I'm that guy who even compares the exact same products to still get the best one)

Model Reviewed: Nvg2 10.5
Summary: NVG2 10.5 one with stock fujikura quadraflex stiff and one with Macgregor Speeder reg flex...both are 60 gm shafts with similar torque...both play firm.
This club was a very pleasent surprise. I have tried many different sticks including, Cobra speed pro S, Ping G2 10*, G5 9.5* and G10...the NVG2 10.5 was longer and straighter than all by a substancial margin. Club head sets up about a degree closed with face progression (opposite of offset) so the two seem cancel each other out...looks a little strange at first at address...but it's the results that count and the NVG2 10.5 is an over acheiver and confidence bbuilder. Longer and straighter than any driver I have hit and the shaft feels nice too. At demo days, I was hitting mine a good 20 yars farther than the Ping G10 of the same loft with a Prolaunch red stiff shaft. The Ping G10 (standard, not draw version) had a tendency to hook for me...but even the longest balls hit pure were far short of the NVG2 10.5...this club has a very hot face...but it's the club's uncanny ability to turn over and hit straight that I love most

Summary: had the NVG2 Tour with 55g NVS S flex... nice stick, but just something missing in control. Too light of a shaft, I guess... Traded for a non tour 10.5 with an S flex V2. I noticed that many of the long drivers at the remax had the V2 shaft, and they can use anything they want... It is a great shaft. That did the trick. Hard not to hit it straight. Ball flight is low for a 10.5*, but that maybe is my swing. Great sound, and VERY long. But the best thing by far is the control, the ease of keeping it in the fairway. Picked up in 8.5/10 on Ebay for $40 plus S/H. A steal. This driver is in the bag, and I have tried most everything. Much better IMO than the TM burner, the G5, the Cleveland Comp, the 9805T and R. Beats all of the r7 and r5 stuff too. Try to get past the tech look on the sole, and the low price tag... it is a straight hitting beast.

Summary: Picked this up used at Roger Dunn for thirty bucks. I have been using the Cleveland Launcher Comp which I have been happy with. The NVG though about 20 yards shorter is much more accurate. I occasionally hit hooks with my Cleveland, but no hooks in 5 rounds so far with NVG. Both clubs have reg shafts and 10.5 degrees loft. I hit 12 of 14 fairways yesterday en route to a 78, first time breaking 80 in about 3 years! I hit this club dead straight or with a slight fade for about 240-250 yards. Average is abouut 260-270 with the other club. No idea why, just seems the shaft is a touch firmer than the stock Fujikura. Any ideas?

Summary: When I hit it, I can't feel it and it goes long and where I want it. When I mis hit it, I feel it but it still goes where I want it just not as long. My mates can't tell a solid it from a mis hit.
