  • what is your opinion and prediction of the winner

I'm surprised no one tried the smooth face or the vertical grooves.
How long is the patent protection in this country anyway ? 10 years ?

When the cost is lower with the more resilient composite material in the near future, we shall see a one piece head with internal weighing all "printed in" with the nano printing technology.
Wouldn't that be the trick to order any color, logo and special features all from the "print shop" ?

      Like I said before...Who the f@%k buys a Wilson driver?
      ....and a $450 one at that

      Release I'm surprised no one tried the smooth face or the vertical grooves.

      If you are talking about the Triton, it does have a grooveless face(smooth).

          Wilson better prepare more funding for settlement.
          I hope they get some from TGC, I don't see this driver gross over a couple of million unless it found the way to sneak by the conforming board.

            Wasn't even paying attention to the face, The interchangeable sole plate and the price tag grabbed my attention.

                Yeah, who cares about score lines on a driver face?

                From an email sent out by TGC.......

                    Why should the golf channel have an interest in the winning driver? Something stinks here!

                        Indirectly, I've been saying that!! The winning designer was once a DSG intern for design. Who loves DSG the most....The Golf Channel!!!!

                        btw, buy this driver tomorrow and get your headcover signed by Urlacher. And of course, free shipping.

                          What a total bunch of hooie.......I've seen more reality on Jerry Springer.......

                          Bangoman And?

                          Nothing, I did not notice the face of the driver and was reminded of the smooth face.

                            Just guessing, TGC might have a financial stake in this deal. They could have front part or the whole cost, thus getting a piece of the action.
                            Someone must believe a conforming driver will be so different that golfers will jump up to pay the asking price.

                            I'd rather see a line of driver offering different weigh configuration ( for different weight and length in shafts ) and a well balance design withOUT the 20 ways to adjust it. but an adapter for ease of changing shafts. Wouldn't every golfer get a few of the heads with custom paint and a bunch of shafts and be set for awhile ?

                                Bangoman I shall watch after dinner. I have never seen one before

                                Don't overeat before you watch this nonsense Steve. You've been warned. 😊
