I'll start. Vertex AW on SK Fiber TT75R shaft. Cleveland Launcher HB 5W on UST 55 Gold R shaft.

Mattyv

Holy shit. Sledge hammer weight.

I glued up some old Acer XDS React hybrids SW, PW, 8 & 6 with some MCS 75 A flex shafts with Chamois II grips. May try to get out and hit these this afternoon. Hey Spuzz, you likey? 😛

SMT Babylon 11*/ Tourswing Motega R 55 with grey carbon fiber wrap covering the green logo on the shaft
😮

Spuzz That looks gorgeous! I remember trying one of those about 20? years ago when someone shipped a bunch of SMT stuff around to FGI'ers. Loved the Babylon!

Nice, but there's no blue. 😎

AdamMH

Spuzz jeez that's a good looking driver... 😁

Spuzz

KCee Loved the Babylon!

I had a 9* with a Rapport Prowound 70R that I loved and it looked great to me.
Both the shaft and head looked way better in the sunlight.
Had to trade it after my back went wonky.
Been looking for a higher lofted one since. and hopefully this 11* is high enough.

KCee

Spuzz hopefully this 11* is high enough.

I always liked that loft. Nemmy, 455, etc were all great at 11* for me. Always thought that was a good compromise for distance and accuracy.....neither of which I possess.

johnnydoom

KCee I always liked that loft.

Me too. 11 degrees always seemed to be the best loft for me and one of the triggers that, if I see it available, throws me into ho mode.

sdandrea1 Nice, but there's no blue.

There's no blue in the whole damn room!
LOL

There is no better paint work than the old SMT woods like the 455 etc…

A couple of years ago, when Geek Golf offered us Golf Buzzers a super deal on their heads at Christmas time,
I bought one. I shafted it up at the time, but haven't made much use of it. So, yesterday I came across Bernie Baymiller's article on building an extra long driver, so I got the bright idea to extend the shaft to make it 47 inches. I'll
take it out to the range this weekend to see how it goes....

I followed Bernie's postings which was before the 175g heads came out and the ultralight shafts. The key to long drivers is making them light with a softer flex shaft. I tried a 195g head at 47" and it really started to get heavy on the back nine.

House? 🤣

Spuzz

sdandrea1 House?

Blue curtains but I inherited those.
Sentimental reasons.
Otherwise, nada.
LOL

Walterjn

Spuzz well, I get the feeling that you might inherit some blue ferrules... I just don't think you will keep those like your blue curtains....

KCee

Spuzz You have blue curtains in your house? No wonder you're angry all the time 😉

Dark Navy blue, so not the soothing (gayazz) blue that's supposed to suppress the anger.
