sdandrea1 hit about 20 balls with the 175 Ultralight driver. No problem hitting it straight, plus a few pulls. NOTHING went right (offset, closed face). The flight is medium and the sound is very solid. The feel is very different from the XXIO and I think it's in the shaft tip. This A flex Integra shaft is light but not as soft in the tip as the 36g XXIO shaft. The flight of the range balls was "different ". It was like there was very low spin. Balls dove out of the trajectory a bit sooner and rolled out.......WAY out. This thing could be a monster in Florida. I'll take it out for 18 holes on Tuesday, possibly tomorrow and report back.
Update. After 27 holes with this driver, I'd say I'm comfortable with it. Love the sound feel and flight. Easy to hit straight. Launch angle is VERY sensitive to tee height. Distance is as long as my Cobra Fmax Super Light, but no longer. Good solid hits require smooth tempo; stepping on it results in bad shots. Not very forgiving outside the sweet spot. Overall the Cobra is a better driver. It's more forgiving, just as long, and less sensitive to tee height and tempo.
