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??
10K MOI Drivers… Remember When?
- Edited
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.
garyt1957 Of course, my Q was in jest.
I don't care about those numbers as they are meaningless. The 455 was a great head, still is, and when I've used them, they have been about as long and as forgiving as anything new today. To say they were not/are not forgiving is to say you've never used one.
But people will argue this point forever.......'gotta have the numbers'.....bullshit. How do you know those numbers are what they say? How do they help our pathetic swings?
Only number from a driver head, that matters, is when the ball stops after you hit it. The number any OEM tells you about a head, is meaningless.
But let's all of us (??)200 yd. hitters worry about the MOI of a head.
The only 'K' I want from a driver head is $K. And that ain't happening.
Lol, I see we moved on to the third MOI.
Show me the drive that corrects the over the top, 3* closed at impact swing and I’ll give a rats ass. Until then, they are all going left when I miss. Unless something is going to automatically widen the landing area, a miss is a miss.
For most goobers out there is over the top and 5* open at impact, so either way you look at it, to tell me it will twist less when you miss by 1/4 of an inch on an acceptable swing path… meh.
