What struck me was how crooked were we off the tee back then? I guess growing up in the wooden driver era if you didn’t hit driver straight… you weren’t going to find another one more forgiving. I don’t even think forgiving was a word back then associated with drivers. I used a 3 wood until I was in my 20’s and tried a Wilson Graphite Whale driver.
Eguller Ummmmmm What? hahaha
I have never been a fan of MOI since I believe it was Nike perhaps that started that bullshit train rolling.
Wishon jumped on it pretty quickly if I recall, but when I was at the factory that produced the MOI measuring machines, they told me that he had only purchased two units.
Of course, you can listen to this "salesman" or, whatever his real job was before he dabbled in clubmaking.
Personally, I think this video is beyond terrible and past ridiculous. At the 5 minute mark, nothing he said makes sense or is actually good information.
Other than that, the chatter about MOI died quickly after it's inception. Of course, maybe someone just took it out behind the barn and shot it. No loss.

Seems to me the Wishon 919 was rated pretty high back in the day. They were good drivers.
What about the Wishon 9590L?
I still have one at 10.5* with
a regular flex UST V2 shaft??

Par4QC Were the 455DB heads around 2K?
Pretty sure around 3700-3900. I remember when the square Sasquatch came out advertising 5000, Wishon already had the normal shaped 949 MC out that was 4700. so right there. Pretty sure they measure different now, hence the 10K.
edit: As Pell Mell posted: No, the 455DB has a horizontal MOI that's close to 4k, the maximum alowed by the USGA is 5900. 10k is a combined horizontal and vertical MOI.
Ferkrissakes, just go play golf!!!!! These numbers games are another chase altogether.
