colej The shaft stays stationary (like In the Callaway)

Which Callaway adapter does that?

    any Callaway start adapter you turn the dual cog on the adapter. The taylormade and ping you are actually turning the shaft and orientating it in a different position.

      I've never played a forged club for any extended period of time so the ts1's feel great to me, but so did the ping s56, s55's and i200s before. I'm impressed with the forgiveness and distance in the pretty package that is the ts1 more than anything

      colej I got the ping on some holes and the maltby in others

      Do tell. What are the feel and sound differences ? The Maltby CT250 had a unique sound.

        the Ping has a much more metallic sound than the maltby. Both feel solid but the maltby having that solid thwack sound the feel is better than the ping.

        colej Just now seeing this. I just got the Epic Flash very late last season and got 1 round on it. I did have to install the shaft in the adapter and I just set everything neutral. Didn't even realize what I had in my hands, until I looked at it after I posted here. As far as I know, this is the 1st adapter that let's a spined shaft stay in the same position, regardless of setting.(??) Nice deal!

          yep and as far as I know, all the other companies are turning the entire shaft to get any changes in face angle or loft.

          Why is it only available in one loft, 9 degrees?

            ode Only if you want to hit a fade. It's 9 degrees with a square face.

              pellmell I was gonna tell ya NOT to pay attention to the chart.....it's FUBAR (beyond FUBAR).....read the question/answer section (on the GW site) the below the specs....it's the only driver with an adapter that gets more closed with less loft and more open with more loft.....here are the various explanations given (🤮)-

              "As I said before the chart is not listing the face angle. It is listing the direction the adaptor is rotated to create the listed loft angle. If we were listing face angles for this driver the loft would always be 10*."

              and-

              "What is listed here is what we have always referred to as Effective Loft. The lofts are listed with the face in a square position. The Face Angles listed here are the amount and direction the face had to be rotated in the different settings to get the clubface to a square position. The measurements listed are the actual measurements with the club mounted in a Golf Club Gauge."

              and

              "I have passed along your suggestion for including the face angle changes in the chart. I will email you a chart where I have added the face angle changes. One thing to keep in mind when this driver is set into the Neutral setting which is 10* loft, 59* lie and 1* open face angle the 1* open face angle is built into the clubhead and not being created by the adaptor. The changes are referenced from that standard."

              I still don't know what the actual lofts and f.a. are as they have not changed the chart yet. Bottom line is lower loft = the most open and highest loft = the most closed (relative to the most open/lowest loft setting). The last explanation (in this post) explains the loft and f.a. in the neutral setting as 10* and 1.0* open, what the rest of the chart means is a crap shoot when reading his explanations. I have posted a question asking him to email me the corrected chart/face angles! I will post when I get it.

                That's how all the other OEM driver adjustments work so I would imagine the maltby is the same way - colej, can you confirm this?

                  Nevermind....they posted the ? and Jim emailed me the chart, I'll post when I get some time later.

                    you should’ve gave them the middle finger and the thumbs down lol

                    I would think Chad is correct but Jim keeps going back to that the chart displays what the adapter is doing not face angle???

                      colej It's strange reading Jim Y's responses to pretty much the same question. He seems to be saying the face angle will not be open for the most loft, but that the adapter will be rotated to the open position? Not sure I follow that, but I don't have this head to play with.

                      Jim emailed me the chart...I will post later when I get some time.

                      If I am interpreting this correctly, the only square face angle is 9* loft....right ?
