Orlimar Fury QB Driver - 10.5 Reg

Summary:
I have used Orlimar wods since the persimmon days so could not resist the offer to buy the newest square driver technology for $89.00 from Rock Bottom Golf. The Fury QB has a top Aldila shaft and Golf Pride grip, as well as a quality looking 460cc head. Once I got used to the square look and set up, I started really nailing my drives. Also, the sound is great - not the aluminum bat sound that has made me hate most of today's Titanium drivers. I have always been pretty straight off the tee, and this driver really lets me go after it without worrying about going OB, etc. I also have noticed a return of some of the 30 yards I have lost as a senior golfer. With the extra straight yards this driver has given me, my handicap has finally dropped back to a single digit in the last two months. This is not the Orlimar of Jesse Ortiz, but this driver is well designed, high quality, playable, and just plain fun to hit, so do not be afraid to buy one - especially at the low prices offered at discounters or eBay.

Orlimar Fury QB

Summary:
I'm an 8 handicap golfer, my average drive is 280 plus and when I need it I can hit the 300 yd plus drive. I play a natural draw shot, my ball draws in the neighborhood of 60 yds right to left and like many players on any given day over cook the hook and struggle with the dreaded block when trying to correct the hook. My teaching pro had me try the 9.5 Orlimar Fury QB Nuetral weighted driver and I loved it, I couldn't hook the ball if my life depended on it, just grip it and rip it 300 yds down the middle all the time trying to hook it and I couldn't. Like others have said difficult to work the ball with this club however I just close or open the face depending on the shot I want to hit and blam I'm in the fairway and I stuggle move my ball 30 yds either way. I play with callaway irons and woods after playing with my Orlimar driver, I'm selling all 3 of my callaway woods and replacing them with the Orlimar woods for the less than I spent on 1 callaway wood. We all know this game is 80% mental, well with these clubs I now have the confidense to hit a specific target in the fairway. Most of us would be satisfied just hitting the fairway. These clubs are very easy to hit and for the dreaded slicers you will more apt to hit a fade and for those of us that draw the ball you can really step on it without the fear of the dreaded hook. This is my first review of any product, I just felt compelled to share my experience with you, I would highly recommend this club to all levels of golfers.

Summary:
Incredible value driver !!Perfect square driver for cheap price in front of Callaway or Nike.Straight penetrating ball flight, not noisy sound muted by the carbon crown.Very acceptable distance with less side spin than others, the only thing difficult is to work the ball, but 240 yds straight in the middle is an acceptable contraint ...
Very good looking at adress and good combo with the ALDILA NVS , pretty nice original headcover.
If you want to try a square driver for less than 100 bucks don't hesitate!! I keep my TM 460 in my bag but use to play the ORLIMAR for winter season!!
PS my 1st round with the QB Fury only after a few balls at practice was a 78 !!
I'm 53 years and 6 hcp
Happy New Year

Summary:
I was hunting a new driver and the pro at a large golf discount store recommended the Orlimar Fury QB. He said the square head would reduce the side spin by at least 50%. I was having a little trouble with a cut so I said I would try it. WRONG MOVE. This club has absolutely no feel with the NV shaft by Orlimar. The distance with this club was 40 yards less than my 983K or G2. I would not recommend this club to anyone. It has the least feel and performance of any driver I have ever tried and I have tried most all of the OEM drivers. Try it before you buy it and save your money. There are too many good drivers out there at a bargain to buy this piece of junk.
