Summary: This driver is absolutely incredible..I have always been able to hit any driver I have ever used..This driver is in a class by it's self.I have used Cobra,Adams 11,Taylormade,Calloway' Nike' and Titleist..None of those ,came close to the 450 sooo long.Mine is 1 degree closed .Mine has a R flex and has been splined and flo'ed and this will make it even better .of course,any driver, woods, or irons will perform better if you have this did to them..As they say,you get what you pay for so why not do it right and play better..I got this driver from e-bay with a House of forged Patriot shaft through Chuck's Custom Clubs.They asked me me to detail how I wanted the shaft to be for the head and they know what they are doing to a golf club..Bottom line,try this driver, with the PROPER shaft for your swing speed and your mouth will fly open..Believe it or not I honestly only paid $99.00 for everything they did for me.Best money I have ever spent for a driver and have picked up at least 20-25 yards..

Summary: This driver is PHENOMINAL!! It is one of the best looking, hottest, longest hitting drivers I've ever owned. I currently have about 15-20 drivers in my garage that I rotate through, and every time I take this one out on the course I fall in love with it all over again. Sure it's an older head and it's a lesser known component brand, and therefore it doesn't have that "oooooh" factor from your buddies when you pull it out of your bag, but I swear I have about a dozen friends who have bought one of these after hitting it because it's simply amazing.
I normally average about 270-290 yards pretty consistently with about every driver that I own. But with this driver I'm a good 20-30 yards longer, averaging around 300-320 yards. I even flew it over a green from the tee one time at 354 yards (granted it was an elevated tee box and we were hitting slightly downwind, but still!). The feel of hitting this club is like no other, you can literally feel the clubface give in and then spring back out and the ball takes off like a rocket! I'm sure it's non-conforming, but that doesn't matter since I only use it on my recreational rounds.
I also love the way it looks with the electric blue paint job, and I have it paired up with the MCS 75 shaft which is painted with the exact same color as the head. I get compliments on the looks all the time, there's nothing else like it on the market.
BOTTOM LINE: At the price you can get these things for, you'd be an idiot to spend 3-4 times as much just to have "Taylor Made" or "Ping" stamped on the bottom of your club.
INTERESTING FACT: Have you ever heard of Krank Golf? They're one of the top brands on the professional long drive tour, in fact they just won the world championship this year. Well, the Integra 450R is actually the EXACT SAME DRIVER as the Krank Red Hot Chili Pepper which is the club that put Krank on the map. All Krank did was have their own name stamped on the bottom and painted it a fire-red color, and they sold thousands of them at $399!! The Integra 450R driver goes for way less than that and it's the exact same freaking club. Amazing.
Similar Products Used: Wishon, Geek, Bang, Alpha, Acer, Dynacraft, Ping, Callaway, Taylor Made, etc, etc.

Summary: I just bought this driver off of e-bay mainly because of the price. I guess I didn't really expect it to do what they advertized but the price was right. I was averaging around 210 yards with my other drivers so I thought any improvement would be worth the money. On the first tee of the first day I used it I drove the ball 238 yards. Honestly! I checked it with my GPS. I figured this was probably a fluke but it kept it up hole after hole. Even my off center hits went farther than my other driver's good hits. My best drive of the day was 248 yards. I love this driver! Now all my golfing buddies want one too.

Summary: Started using 3 1/2 years ago and still hitting it high and far. Very forgiving on off-centered hits and high launch trajectory adds accuracy and more distance.
