Had a chance to play these today for the first time. Shafts are Nippon 1050 R at D-2 SW. I was quite impressed. The head/shaft combination launches the ball on a nice mid trajectory. Best thing about them is the little "click" that you hear and feel at impact. Very subdued but you can definately tell when you've hit a good shot. The overall size is certainly larger than most "players" CB's but not overly so. I usually prefer a more compact profile particularly in my short irons but these didn't bother me a bit. I had no trouble "picking" them off some really tight lies I found myself in. I really only mis**t one iron shot all day and that was a nine iron that I hit fat (my fault entirely). I was impressed and I really liked them.

Very unique feel; more of a solid "click" at impact than the typical forged feel. Takes a little getting used to but I like it. |

Our club has been closed due to snow, but will post some pics as soon as possible. I have a brand new Technity 3 wood and a 460 driver with the new Rombax shaft and have not been able to hit either one due to poor weather conditions. However, I am heading to Phoenix for a week at the end of this month and should be able to do some really good testing. |
