We tested the Benross HTX Type-R driver out on the practice field at Moor Allerton using our SkyTrak launch monitor to gather data.
Conditions were windy and we were using non-premium balls.
We know Benross make golf equipment at very friendly prices but how does the performance compare to some of the more expensive drivers on the market.
Myself (17-handicap) and staff writer Craig Middleton (18-handicap) put the new HTX Type-R driver through its paces.
First impressions of the Benross HTX Type-R driver
[content_block slug=”benross-htx-driver”]
Benross previously had the Max, Hot and Rip Speed range which were aimed at the high, mid and low handicappers.
They have now simplified things this year by simply having HTX or HTX Type-R with their drivers and their irons.
Type-R products have a bit more technology and are a bit more expensive so it’s more a question of budget rather than ability when deciding on which one to go for.
We tested out the Type-R driver which looks packed with tech.
There’s a premium Mitsubishi Kuro Kage shaft and Golf Pride Tour Velvet grip so top-quality components at a very friendly £179.99. The regular HTX is £129.99.
