ss 02 14 degree with NV75 stiff

Summary:
Let me start by saying that I am something of a freak when it comes to equipment. I have recently tried pretty much every wood available!

But when I finally got my ss02 I stopped looking. Not only does this club look amazing with top grade manufacturing, it does exactly what it says it will! This is very refreshing in the days of BS advertising and ridiculous claims. It hits the ball solid, straight and low. If you are a high ball hitter like me, you will know that there is nothing more frustrating than a 3 wood that flies like an 8 iron in the wind.

Combine the fine looking shallow head with a decent shaft like the NV and you are laughing. There really is nothing spectacular about this club, but to me it simply looks, sounds and feels totally solid and reliable. Isn't this what we are all looking for in a fairway woood if we are honest?

It sets up so nicely behind the ball and you can even hit off a low tee. This club almost makes those long par 5s too easy and boring!!!

Summary:
After my beloved titleist 980f stong broke i decided to try a new club, and wound up demoing this club some months ago. I must say this club is sweet! i got mine with just the clubhead and put the true temper crossfire shaft in it and it is sweet!

i consider my self somewhat of an equipment freak, put the launch conditions are truly the most ideal for all golfers in the 14 degrre model. I know there are the new models that just came out, but this club will be in my bag loner than any of the others!

Summary:
Having lost my favorite 3 wood of all time (Taylor Made Firesole), I spent many lost years trying to find an adequate replacement. After trying all the new Taylor Made models, a couple of Precepts, a few Callaways, Adams, Orlimar, and coming close with a Ping TiSi Tec, I finally have a club that has replaced the Firesole in my affections. I bought the Sonartec SS-02 and unlike the previous mentioned clubs it required no adjustemnt period. The ball flight is a little lower but it was long. The face sits a touch closed (which I prefer) but even with my natural draw, hooking the club is difficult. The stock Penley shaft seems up to the task, and the simple look of the club is second to none. I'm looking forward to more extensive playing with this club.

Sonartec :Super CV BBD 4 Wood

Summary:
After struggling with a variety of 3 woods over the last 10 years I decided to take the plunge and buy a Sonartec 4 wood after reading all the terrific reviews on this site.Dallas Golf had been advertising the Royal Super CV Collection which they describe as the way Sonartec is marketed in Japan(just in case anyone had seen their ads and worried about the change of name).In any case , the 4 wood with steel shaft was $69.00 US which seemed fair enough.After 2 wild slices I realised that I didn't have to hold the face open like normal closed face woods and just let it sit normally.I used the 4 wood off all tees and for all fairway shots where possible and shot 2 over for 9 holes.Big news for me I'll tell you.The tee shots were good but I found that it actually went further off the deck for some reason.
Distance was consistently around the 200 metre mark and I'm certainly no big hitter these days.As others have said the flight is a little lower than some but very straight on all but the worst miss hits with good roll on skinny shots. A very well made club ,with a nice thick coat of paint. Possibly would be better with a graphite shaft but I'll never know.Will have to look out for one of their hybrids next.
