Unique Features responsible for this Driver's spectacular performance and distance:
- Composed of 100% Beta-Titanium which is much stronger than Titanium, producing more ball speed off the face, and longer drives.
- The compact 310cc head size has surprisingly less wind resistance than a 460cc Driver, allowing you to generate faster clubhead speed prior to impact, and longer drives.
- The advanced cup-face technology improves sound and feel, optimizes launch angle, expands the sweet-spot and increases ball flight distance.
- The head size of 310cc is just right for many golfers. Not super big like the 460cc (which some golfers find to be bulky or cumbersome), but also more meaty and confidence evoking than a 230cc head.
- This Driver was designed to perform at the length of a 460cc Driver, while also having the aerodynamics of a mini driver. These two factors, combined with the Beta-Titanium, result in faster club-head speed and longer drives.
Additionally, beta titanium faces are more resistant to deformation, which can improve accuracy and consistency. However, it is important to note that not all beta titanium driver faces are created equal. Other manufacturers often use beta titanium in conjunction with other materials, or may use beta titanium but in the old traditional head structure.
- Increased distance potential
- Improved accuracy and consistency
- Enhanced durability
* Beta-Titanium drivers are notably more difficult and expensive to produce.
By using Beta Titanium, this compact 310cc head accomplishes the same face spring coefficient as found on a 460cc driver (the maximum allowable by USGA). You can't find that on other mini drivers.
A cup face design refers to an advanced construction technique, where the face of the driver is formed as part of a solid one-piece structure, in this case made of beta-titanium, resembling a cup. This cup face construction enhances several performance aspects of a Driver.
- Increased Forgiveness: A cup face design often results in a larger sweet spot. This means that even on off-center hits, where the ball makes contact with the face outside the center, the driver can maintain more ball speed and accuracy. This increased forgiveness can be particularly beneficial for golfers who don't consistently strike the ball in the center of the clubface.
- Enhanced Ball Speed: The cup face construction is designed to promote higher ball speeds. The flexible face can rebound more effectively upon impact, translating into increased ball speed off the clubface. Higher ball speed can contribute to longer drives, which is a desirable outcome for many golfers.
- Optimized Launch Conditions: The cup face design can help optimize launch conditions, especially by promoting a higher launch angle. This can be beneficial for achieving an optimal trajectory and maximizing distance. Additionally, the design may contribute to lower spin rates, reducing the likelihood of excessive backspin that can lead to loss of distance.
- Customization of Weight Distribution: The cup face allows for the redistribution of weight within the driver head. This can provide golf club designers with more flexibility in adjusting the center of gravity (CG) and moment of inertia (MOI). These adjustments can influence the driver's performance by affecting spin, launch angle, and forgiveness.
- Improved Sound and Feel: Some golfers appreciate the sound and feel associated with a cup face design. The construction may contribute to a satisfying sound at impact, and the feel can be perceived as responsive and lively. A cup face golf driver head is a type of driver head that has a curved face that extends inward towards the center of the clubhead.
- Increased ball speed: The cup face design can help to increase the ball speed by flexing inward at impact, effectively increasing the loft of the clubface and transferring more energy to the ball.
- Improved forgiveness: The cup face design can also improve forgiveness by providing more surface area for the ball to strike. This can help to reduce the impact of off-center hits and produce straighter drives. Enhanced ball launch: The cup face design can also help to launch the ball higher into the air, which can lead to longer drives.
- Reduced spin: The cup face design can also help to reduce spin on the ball, which can improve accuracy and control.
- More consistent performance: The cup face design can help to provide more consistent performance across a wider range of impact locations, which can lead to more consistent drives. Overall, the cup face design is a popular choice for golfers of all skill levels who are looking for a driver head that can provide them with more distance, forgiveness, and control.
Here are some general considerations regarding choosing the right driver head size for you:
- 460cc Drivers offer larger sweet spots to be more forgiving on off-center hits. This can be good for golfers with less consistent swings. The disadvantage is the bulky size and more air resistance, which can reduce clubhead speed through impact.
- Drivers below 350cc have less of a bulky feel/look, as well as better aerodynamics, which helps you achieve faster club-head speed and can also be advantageous in windy playing conditions. The sweet spot is slightly smaller, but you gain more control and potential for shot-shaping.
