Got The Ho'ing Itch For A New Driver

I haven't bought a new driver in years and really have the itch for a new one. Getting the urge for a new driver is like getting poison ivy on your sack. Y...

I think the Big Bang 450 was an open model. I remember at least one that resembled it. I think it was called 300yard and added a dual face. I think the Krank earliest models may have used the Soolong and had the "Red Hot Chili Pepper driver and fairways that definitely resembled the Soolongs.

Click on your own link. It says, "The Big Bang 450 is made from SP700 Beta Titanium with a dark blue finish."

This was discussed on FGI years ago. I had them both on the bench next to each other. They came from different molds.

Rickochet was called 300yard and added a dual face.

Had me a couple of those(300 yd.com) and they were probably the best head ever. Got rid of them both, of course, as they always hit the ball so damn high, straight, and rather long. But especially straight.

Those 3 things, as a combination, always bother me as I keep thinking, on the teebox, that I've been possessed by otherworld spirits, or the likes of.

Well, Spuzz calls them gay ass blue. He has an issue with the Soolongs. I actually like(d) both clubs.

As I mentioned earlier I had a BB450 years ago and liked it but sold it. I get a new one tomorrow. The color is a very attractive dark blue. I still have an Integra Soolong 450 R in an 18° that I bag often depending on the course as a second driver.

Got the itch scratched today. Received the Big Bang 450 head from DTG and also snagged a new Ping G SF Tec 12 ° driver on Ebay dirt cheap.

Inquiring minds want to know , you know ?

I will be happy to share when I can. Weather stinks so no golf for a few weeks. I liked the head when I had it many years ago and wanted to try it again. I will be trying different shafts in different weights. I know which flex works for me and can measure that in my old NF2.

I just snagged a new Ping G SF Tec in a 12° that arrived today. The Bang will be on the back burner but will post whenever.
