Callaway FT-5 9.5* with Axiv V7072 untipped at 46"
tempo: reg ave carry: 265-280 SS: 110+ Ball speed: 157-162 miss: pull left ball flight: med LA: 12-14 spin: 2600 Always Looking for more distance..lol! and slightly higher launch angle 14* and spin around the 2200, but with a good decending angle of attack for roll. Iam really not sure if I can get any better than ft-5/axiv combo, as it seems to fitting like a glove and I have seen the best accuracy and increased distance and amzing piercing ball flight with terrific decending angle and much more roll....but I'm open to all suggestions! |
