Testers’ Comments

JaW: The head sits slightly closed but is small so no real clear message. It works but I’m not sure it is suitable to the mass market.
JoW: Performance-wise this was top class. The head shape is lovely but at address it sits closed (to my eye, anyway!). The shaft is incredibly light but by no means soft. Lots of shelf appeal.
PC: One of the longest of the day for me. Doesn’t look the best but certainly works.
RR: Solid off the face, good shaft, well-balanced. Overall a very good golf club.
