Summary:
Wow, what can i say. I am rating this driver a 1 only because it will not allow me to give it a 0. It is a total waste of money. I am the head teaching pro at Charlotte Country Club and have been teaching golf for over 25yrs. A student of mine bought one of these and i tried it. I told him he should return as it will actually harm is swing. Imagine hitting a baseball with an old persimmon wood, that is what it feels like at contact. It is definately NOT longer than any club i have ever hit. save your money, buy a new or used name brand club. This club WILL NOT Improve your game!!!

Customer Service:
My student made an attempt to return it, after many attempts of finally being able to speak with someone. He could send it back for a partial refund.

Summary:
First of all, this club is USGA conforming, contrary to popular belief. The clubhead volume is 450cc - due in part to being very narrow in the back. Its maximum height from crown to sole comes in just under the limit of 2.8". It is well within length requirements. The club face has a large surface area of 595mm - which does not pose a problem by itself.

I've played this club at the driving range twice. The first time I was slicing it terribly. After doing some reading on the web, I tried it again, trying to slow down the swing and let the shaft do its job. This was much more effective. I personally wish the shaft was not 45". As for the feel and sound, I do not care much for either. But, if you make a conscious effort to hold back on your swing, the club is quite forgiving and is long.

I share the negative comments made elsewhere about the informercials for this club. I feel they are completely lacking in good taste and integrity. I don't care for the name of this club either - and one should emphatically not try to overswing it. It looks a little unorthodox to put it mildly, but I kind of like its unique appearance. But in the end, it is still a good club, from my experience, and worth the very modest cost. I would suggest it is worth trying out, there is not much to lose.

in terms of distance the closest I have hit to this club is the excellent Sonartec Ti-01, which has much better feel.
